The Dialogue between Rukmāṅgada and Dharmāṅgada
पितुर्वचनमादृत्य सर्वं यः कुरुते गृहे । स याति देव सायुज्यं स्तूयमानो दिवि स्थितैः ॥ १० ॥
piturvacanamādṛtya sarvaṃ yaḥ kurute gṛhe | sa yāti deva sāyujyaṃ stūyamāno divi sthitaiḥ || 10 ||
جو گھر میں باپ کے فرمان کو ادب سے مان کر ہر کام انجام دیتا ہے، وہ آسمان میں رہنے والوں کی ستائش کے ساتھ دیوتاؤں کے سَایُجْی (ہمنشینی و یکجائی) کو پاتا ہے۔
Narada (teaching in the Uttara-Bhaga context)
Vrata: none
Primary Rasa: bhakti
Secondary Rasa: shanta
It presents obedience to one’s father—done with reverence in household life—as a direct dharmic cause for attaining deva-sāyujya (divine association/union) and heavenly praise.
It frames devotion as lived reverence expressed through service and obedience (sevā and ādarā), where honoring the father becomes a concrete form of dharma aligned with sacred order, leading to exalted spiritual results.
No specific Vedāṅga (like Vyākaraṇa or Jyotiṣa) is taught here; the practical takeaway is sadācāra—ethical discipline in the gṛhastha-āśrama through respectful adherence to parental instruction.
