Brahmavākya
Brahmā’s Pronouncement on Hari-nāma and the Non-punishability of Viṣṇu’s Devotees
लीलया चोच्चरेद्देवं श्रृणुयाच्च जनार्दनम् । गंगांभः पूतपुण्यत्वे स नरः समतां व्रजेत् ॥ ८ ॥
līlayā coccareddevaṃ śrṛṇuyācca janārdanam | gaṃgāṃbhaḥ pūtapuṇyatve sa naraḥ samatāṃ vrajet || 8 ||
たとえ戯れにでも神の御名を唱え、ジャナールダナ(Janārdana)の御徳を聴聞するなら、ガンガーの水がもつ浄化と福徳の力によって、その人は心の平等(平静)へと至る。

Secondary Rasa: bhakti
It teaches that even casual remembrance and hearing of Vishnu (Janardana), when connected with the sanctity of Ganga, becomes a powerful purifier that matures into inner balance (samatā), a key mark of spiritual progress.
Bhakti is shown as accessible: uttering the Lord’s name (nāma) and listening (śravaṇa) to His glories are effective even without elaborate prerequisites, and they naturally refine the mind toward equanimity.
No specific Vedanga technique is taught directly; the practical takeaway is sādhana-method: disciplined śravaṇa (hearing) and nāma-ucchāraṇa (uttering the Name), often performed during tirtha practices like Gaṅgā-snāna for heightened punya.
