Narada (teaching the proper devotional practice and its fruit)
Vrata: none
Primary Rasa: bhakti
Secondary Rasa: vira
It links mantra-recitation with devotional charity (dāna) and dakṣiṇā, teaching that offerings made with bhakti become a direct means to receive auspiciousness through Keśava’s grace.
Bhakti is shown as the essential inner disposition behind ritual action—giving to a worthy brāhmaṇa is not merely formal, but becomes spiritually potent when performed as an offering to Keśava.
Ritual protocol is emphasized: mantra-application and the rule of sa-dakṣiṇā (gift with honorarium) reflect the practical discipline of Vedic rite-performance (kalpa-oriented practice).
