Narada Purana — Purva Bhaga, Shloka 24
Bharata’s Attachment and the Palanquin Teaching on ‘I’ and ‘Mine’
आसीञ्चेतः समासक्तं न तथा ह्यच्युते मुने । विमुक्तराज्यतनयः प्रोज्झिताशेषबांधवः ॥ २४ ॥
āsīñcetaḥ samāsaktaṃ na tathā hyacyute mune | vimuktarājyatanayaḥ projjhitāśeṣabāṃdhavaḥ || 24 ||
おお聖仙よ、彼の心はそこに深く執着したが、アチュタ（主）に対しては同じではなかった。王国と子を捨て、残る縁者をも断ったとはいえ、不滅なる御方への信愛（バクティ）は等しくはならなかった。

FAQs
It teaches that external renunciation—leaving kingdom, family, and social ties—does not by itself culminate in liberation unless the same intensity of attachment is redirected toward Acyuta (Vishnu).
The verse contrasts worldly detachment with true bhakti: the heart must become firmly attached to Vishnu; otherwise, renunciation remains incomplete because the mind still clings elsewhere.
No specific Vedanga (like Vyakarana, Jyotisha, or Kalpa) is taught directly here; the practical takeaway is psychological discipline—training the citta to rest in Vishnu rather than merely changing external circumstances.
