Sanatkumara (in instruction to Narada, within a technical/ritual context)
Vrata: none
Primary Rasa: raudra
Secondary Rasa: bhakti
It emphasizes correct ritual sequence: dhyāna (inner visualization) first, then aṅga-arcana (structured worship of auxiliary aspects), presenting multiple Śakti-names as valid contemplative and worshipful forms.
Bhakti here is expressed as focused devotion through meditation and reverential worship of the Goddess in her distinct epithets, showing that devotion can be practiced through disciplined ritual attention and sacred naming.
Ritual praxis: the procedural rule of doing dhyāna prior to arcana, and the use of aṅgas (auxiliary components) reflects technical liturgical organization akin to kalpa-style method (prayoga/vidhi) within Narada Purana’s applied sacred sciences.
