FAQs
It teaches that divine prasāda (grace) removes obstacles to one’s gati—one’s movement, progress, and safe passage—across all realms of existence, indicating the supremacy of devotion and divine favor over worldly limitations.
The verse centers the result on prasāda, implying that sincere worship, pilgrimage, and reverent service culminate in the Deity’s grace—through which the devotee’s path becomes ‘avyāhata’ (unhindered), a hallmark fruit of bhakti in Purāṇic teaching.
No specific Vedāṅga technique is taught in this verse; the practical takeaway is ritual-theological: acts of worship and tīrtha-sevā are meaningful when oriented toward securing devas’ prasāda, which is presented as the decisive factor for success and protection.
