It emphasizes that Bhagavān’s darśana is itself transformative: even those distressed and burdened by suffering are calmed and uplifted upon beholding Vaikuṇṭha, the compassionate Lord.

No specific Vedāṅga (like Vyākaraṇa, Jyotiṣa, or Kalpa) is taught in this verse; the practical takeaway is devotional: seek darśana through worship, pilgrimage, and sincere surrender as described across Narada Purana rituals.
