Maṅgalācaraṇa, Naimiṣāraṇya-Sabhā, Sūta-Āhvāna, and Narada Purāṇa-Māhātmya
सत्सङ्गदेवार्चनसत्कथासु हितोपदेशे निरतो मनुष्यः । प्रयाति विष्णोः परमं पदं यद्देहावसानेऽच्युततुल्यतेजाः ॥ ६३ ॥
satsaṅgadevārcanasatkathāsu hitopadeśe nirato manuṣyaḥ | prayāti viṣṇoḥ paramaṃ padaṃ yaddehāvasāne'cyutatulyatejāḥ || 63 ||
جو انسان ستسنگ، دیوتاؤں کی پوجا، ست کتھا کے شروَن اور نفع بخش نصیحت میں مشغول رہتا ہے، وہ وِشنو کے پرم پد کو پاتا ہے؛ اور جسم کے خاتمے پر اچیوت کے مانند نور و جلال والا ہو جاتا ہے۔
Narada (teaching in the Purva Bhaga context; aligned with Narada’s instruction on bhakti-oriented conduct)
Vrata: none
Primary Rasa: bhakti
Secondary Rasa: adbhuta
It teaches that sustained engagement with satsanga, worship, sacred discourse, and wholesome guidance purifies the mind and leads to Viṣṇu’s supreme abode, culminating in divine-like radiance at death.
Bhakti is shown as a lived discipline: keeping saintly company, practicing worship, hearing true kathā, and accepting hitopadeśa—together forming a devotional lifestyle that culminates in Viṣṇu-realization.
No specific Vedāṅga is taught directly; the practical takeaway is ritual practice (devārcana) and disciplined listening/learning (satkathā, hitopadeśa), which support dharma and inner purification.
