The Exposition of the Krishna Mantra (Kṛṣṇa-mantra-prakāśa): Nyāsa, Dhyāna, Worship, Yantra, and Prayoga
जीवं प्राणं च सर्वागे मत्यादित्रितयं हृदि । मूर्द्धास्यहृद्गुह्य पादेष्वथ शब्दादिकान्न्यसेत् ॥ १४ ॥
jīvaṃ prāṇaṃ ca sarvāge matyāditritayaṃ hṛdi | mūrddhāsyahṛdguhya pādeṣvatha śabdādikānnyaset || 14 ||
جیوا اور پران کا نیاس تمام اعضا میں ہر طرف کرے؛ متی وغیرہ کی تثلیث کا نیاس دل میں کرے۔ پھر شبد وغیرہ کا نیاس سر، منہ، دل، گُہْیَہ مقام اور پاؤں میں کرے۔
Sanatkumara (teaching Narada)
Vrata: none
Primary Rasa: shanta
Secondary Rasa: bhakti
It teaches internal consecration (nyāsa): the practitioner sacralizes the body by assigning jīva, prāṇa, the inner faculties, and the subtle sense-principles to specific loci, turning the body into a fit vessel for mantra and worship.
By prescribing nyāsa, it supports bhakti as embodied devotion—preparing the body-mind as the Lord’s abode so that recitation and worship become inward, concentrated, and reverential rather than merely external.
It reflects the technical side of Vedic/Paurāṇic ritual application—mantra-nyāsa and viniyoga-like placement—closely aligned with śikṣā (mantra practice) and kalpa (ritual procedure) methods used in structured worship.
