The Account of the Ekādaśī Vow Observed Throughout the Twelve Months
कृत्वा नित्यार्चनं तत्र कटिदानमथाचरेत् । पूर्वं संस्थापितायास्तु प्रतिमाया द्विजोत्तम ॥ ३७ ॥
kṛtvā nityārcanaṃ tatra kaṭidānamathācaret | pūrvaṃ saṃsthāpitāyāstu pratimāyā dvijottama || 37 ||
そこで日々の礼拝を成し終えたのち、腰帯・腰布に関わる定めの供施である「カティダーナ(kaṭidāna)」の儀を行うべきである。おお、最勝の二度生まれよ、これは先に正しく安置された尊像(プラティマー)について行われる。
Narada (teaching in dialogue, addressing a dvija as 'dvijottama')
Vrata: none
Primary Rasa: bhakti
Secondary Rasa: shanta
It links daily devotion (nityārcana) with dana as a supporting limb of dharma—teaching that worship is not only inner reverence but also disciplined ritual action and charitable offering, especially in the context of a properly installed deity image.
Bhakti is expressed through steady, repeatable practice: first daily pūjā to the installed pratimā, then an act of giving (kaṭidāna) that reinforces humility, service, and the householder’s responsibility to uphold dharma alongside devotion.
It reflects Kalpa (ritual procedure) principles—sequencing of actions in pūjā-vidhi (daily worship followed by a specific dāna), and the rule that certain rites apply specifically to a pratimā that has undergone prior saṃsthāpana (installation).
