FAQs
Indirectly: it prioritizes continuous access to Purāṇic and Dharma-śāstric instruction, which is meant to sustain right understanding (dharma-jñāna) that supports realization; it does not define Ātman explicitly in this verse.
No specific āsana/prāṇāyāma is taught here; the practice emphasized is disciplined scriptural engagement—maintaining Purāṇa/Itihāsa/Dharma-śāstra study even on parvan days—supporting sādhana through continual reflection on dharma.
By exempting Purāṇas from anadhyāya, it upholds Purāṇic teaching as always appropriate—precisely the literature where the Kurma Purana advances Shaiva–Vaishnava harmony and integrated devotion; the synthesis is contextual rather than stated directly in this line.
