The Vision of Mohinī (मोहिनी-दर्शनम्)
तत्त्वया सर्वमेतद्धिकृतं राजन्सुदुस्तरम् । तस्यैव कर्मणः पुष्टिरशून्यस्य महीपते । इमानेवाग्रतः पुण्यास्त्वयोक्तान्विस्तराच्छृणु ॥ १३ ॥
tattvayā sarvametaddhikṛtaṃ rājansudustaram | tasyaiva karmaṇaḥ puṣṭiraśūnyasya mahīpate | imānevāgrataḥ puṇyāstvayoktānvistarācchṛṇu || 13 ||
Wahai Raja, dengan pemahaman hakiki tuanku, segala hal ini benar-benar telah terlaksana—meskipun amat sukar untuk ditempuh. Wahai penguasa bumi, inilah penguat dan buah bagi karma yang bererti, bukan sia-sia. Kini dengarlah dengan terperinci perkara-perkara yang sangat berpahala ini yang tuanku tanyakan; akan kuhamparkan di hadapan tuanku.

FAQs
The verse links tattva (true understanding) with success in dharmic effort: right insight makes even difficult spiritual aims ‘crossable’ and turns action into meaningful, fruit-bearing karma.
While not naming bhakti directly, it sets the bhakti-friendly principle that sincere inner understanding (tattva) makes practice effective; Narada then promises to explain the requested meritorious teachings in detail—typically the kind that support devotion through sacred acts and holy narratives.
No specific Vedanga (like Vyakarana or Jyotisha) is taught in this verse; the practical takeaway is methodological—listen systematically ‘in detail’ (vistarāt) to dharmic instructions so that karma becomes aśūnya (not vain).
