FAQs
It declares that hearing Hari’s stories and devotion to Krishna’s lotus-feet removes faults, and that such devotees become purifiers of the world—so worship should be centered on Hari.
Bhakti is shown as śravaṇa (listening to Hari-kathā) and bhajana (loving service at Krishna’s feet), producing inner purification and transmitting sanctity to others through satsanga.
No specific Vedanga (like Vyākaraṇa or Jyotiṣa) is taught here; the practical takeaway is sādhana through śravaṇa and satsanga—regular listening to Hari-kathā and keeping holy company.
