Ritual Observances Aligned with the Seasons
Seasonal Devotional Procedure
यश्चैतेन विधानॆन कुर्यान्मासे तु फाल्गुने ॥ न स गच्छति संसारं मम लोकाय गच्छति ॥
yaścaitena vidhānena kuryānmāse tu phālgune || na sa gacchati saṃsāraṃ mama lokāya gacchati ||
ഫാൽഗുണ മാസത്തിൽ ഈ വിധാനപ്രകാരം ആരെങ്കിലും ഈ വ്രതം ആചരിച്ചാൽ, അവൻ സംസാരത്തിലേക്ക് പോകുകയില്ല; എന്റെ ലോകത്തിലേക്കാണ് പോകുന്നത്.
Varāha (implied continuation)
It is a characteristic phalaśruti statement, mapping ritual performance onto a soteriological outcome, illustrating how Purāṇas motivate observance through promised results.
No earthly location is specified; the verse contrasts saṃsāra with a transcendent 'world/realm' (loka) associated with the speaker.
Adherence to a stated ordinance (vidhāna) and disciplined timing (Phālguna) are presented as central to the practice.
