FAQs
It emphasizes that sincere devotion to Hari can be expressed through a complete worship-sequence (upacāras) anchored in a single, authoritative Vedic hymn—the Pauruṣa Sūkta—culminating in heartfelt prayer.
Bhakti here is shown as structured reverence: offering services from pādya onward, completing ārati (nīrājana), and then directly praying to Hari—devotion expressed through both ritual care and inner supplication.
Ritual application of mantra (connected to Śikṣā for correct recitation and Kalpa for procedural worship) is implied: one hymn is used to sanctify each upacāra in a disciplined pūjā sequence.
