जिताहारो जितश्वासो जितवाक्च जितेंद्रियः । दिग्बन्ध नादिकं कृत्वा न्यासध्यानादिपूर्वकम् ॥ १३७ ॥
jitāhāro jitaśvāso jitavākca jiteṃdriyaḥ | digbandha nādikaṃ kṛtvā nyāsadhyānādipūrvakam || 137 ||
غذا، سانس، گفتار اور حواس کو قابو میں کر کے، پہلے دِگ بندھ اور ناڑیکا کی ودھی انجام دے؛ پھر نیاس، دھیان وغیرہ ابتدائی اعمال کے ساتھ آگے بڑھے۔
Sage Sanatkumara (in instruction to Narada on technical sadhana/ritual procedure)
Vrata: none
Primary Rasa: shanta
Secondary Rasa: vira
It teaches that mantra-practice must rest on self-mastery—regulated diet, breath, speech, and senses—before undertaking protective rites and the internalizing acts of nyāsa and dhyāna.
Though technical, it supports Bhakti by insisting on purity and steadiness: controlled speech and senses protect mantra-japa and meditation from distraction, making devotion focused and reverent.
It highlights ritual-technical procedure (prayoga): digbandha (directional sealing) and nyāsa (mantra-installation), along with yogic discipline of breath-control used to stabilize recitation and meditation.
