Dhvajāropaṇa and Dhvajāgopaṇa: Procedure, Stotra, and Phala (Merit) of Raising Viṣṇu’s Flag
पृथिव्यादीनि भूतानि तन्मात्राणींन्द्रियाणि च । सूक्ष्मासूक्ष्माणि येनासंस्तं वन्दे सर्वतोमुखम् ॥ ३० ॥
pṛthivyādīni bhūtāni tanmātrāṇīṃndriyāṇi ca | sūkṣmāsūkṣmāṇi yenāsaṃstaṃ vande sarvatomukham || 30 ||
పృథివి మొదలైన భూతాలు, తన్మాత్రలు, ఇంద్రియాలు—సూక్ష్మమూ స్థూలమూ—యావత్తు ఎవరి చేత ప్రాకట్యమయ్యాయో ఆ సర్వతోముఖ ప్రభువును వందిస్తున్నాను।
Narada (praise/invocation within the dialogue framework with Sanatkumara tradition)
Vrata: none
Primary Rasa: adbhuta
Secondary Rasa: bhakti
It identifies the Supreme Lord as the ultimate cause behind both subtle principles (tanmātras, indriyas) and gross elements, directing the seeker to worship the source rather than the effects.
By ending in “taṁ vande,” the verse turns metaphysical analysis into devotion—knowledge of creation culminates in reverence to Vishnu as the all-pervading, many-formed Lord (sarvatomukha).
Indirectly, it supports tattva-vicāra used in Vedic instruction: clear categorization of subtle and gross principles aids disciplined study and correct contemplation, though no single Vedāṅga (like Vyākaraṇa or Jyotiṣa) is explicitly taught in this verse.
