FAQs

Even the gods approach the Lord with humility—bowing at his lotus-feet—showing that reverence is the doorway to divine darśana.

Ayodhyā is presented as the sacred locus where Hari is sought and beheld, highlighting its status as a supreme Vaiṣṇava kṣetra.

A devotional act is implied: offering garlands and bowing at the Lord’s lotus-feet (pādapūjā, namaskāra) as part of worship.
