Sanatkumara (teaching Narada the technical procedure of Surya-upasana within Vedanga-oriented ritual context)
Vrata: none
Primary Rasa: bhakti

It emphasizes disciplined, single-pointed mantra-japa joined with arghya-offering, presenting Surya (Bhāskara) worship as a precise sādhanā where attention (ananya-dhī) and correct count (108) complete the rite.
Bhakti here is expressed through attentive service—offering arghya, chanting the mantra with unwavering mind, and re-worshipping the deity—showing devotion as consistent, reverent practice rather than mere emotion.
It highlights ritual procedure and mantra-prayoga: handling the arghya-pātra, performing japa, and using the canonical count of 108—reflecting technical discipline aligned with Vedanga-style precision in rites.
