FAQs
It teaches a meditative method: begin with a manageable focus (a single part) and then expand awareness to the integrated whole, culminating in steady praṇidhāna—absorbed contemplation that supports liberation (mokṣa).
Even when approached through contemplation, the movement from a partial focus to the ‘whole’ trains the heart-mind to rest steadily in the highest object of reverence; such sustained praṇidhāna naturally matures into devoted, uninterrupted remembrance akin to bhakti.
