FAQs
It frames renunciation (tyāga) as a supreme discipline and stresses śravaṇa—reverent listening to the teaching—as a direct support for mokṣa when properly expounded and understood.
Though it does not name bhakti explicitly, it highlights the devotional posture of attentive hearing (śravaṇa), a key limb of Vishnu-bhakti, and links it with inner renunciation as preparation for liberation.
No specific Vedanga (like Vyākaraṇa or Jyotiṣa) is taught in this line; the practical takeaway is the method of learning—listening to an authoritative exposition (bhāṣya/upadeśa) as the proper way to grasp mokṣa-dharma.
