Faço sempre o que Rāma prescreveu; adoro Rāma com reverência. Por Rāma foram removidos todos os meus pecados—ó Rāma, a Ti me prostro. De Rāma somente busco a libertação; sou para sempre servo (dāsa) de Rāma. Minha mente se deleita em Rāma e se torna perfeitamente límpida—ó Rāma, a Ti me prostro.

FAQs
It presents single-point devotion to Śrī Rāma as a complete sādhanā: obedience to divine instruction, worship with reverence, purification from sin, and the direct aspiration for mokṣa—ending in a mind made clear through constant remembrance.
Bhakti is shown as lived surrender: doing what Rāma enjoins, worshipping Him, trusting His power to remove durita (sin/suffering), identifying oneself as His dāsa, and keeping the mind absorbed in Him—this sustained devotion culminates in liberation.
The verse emphasizes practical discipline rather than a technical Vedāṅga: steady mantra-like remembrance (nāma-smaraṇa/nāma-japa) and ethical obedience to divine injunction (vidhi/anushāsana), which function as applied dharma supporting mokṣa.
