bhuktermukterihānyatra nānyo dātā janārdanāt | tasmāccaturbhujo nityaṃ sevanīyaḥ sukhepsubhiḥ
بھोग اور موکش کے لیے—یہاں بھی اور وہاں بھی—جناردن کے سوا کوئی دینے والا نہیں۔ اس لیے چار بازو والے پروردگار کی نِتّ سَیوَا کرنی چاہیے، جو سچی بھلائی کے طالب ہوں۔
Vyāsa (deduced from immediate narrative context in the same adhyāya)
Tirtha: Kāśī
Type: kshetra
Scene: A Kāśī devotee performs sevā before a four-armed Janārdana icon—lamp, flowers, tulasī—while the Gaṅgā flows behind; the deity’s four arms clearly display śaṅkha, cakra, gadā, padma.
FAQs
All human aims—from enjoyment to liberation—are ultimately granted by Janārdana; sustained service (sevā) to him is advised.
The teaching appears within the Kāśī-khaṇḍa (Kashi Mahatmya) framework, but the verse itself does not name a specific tirtha.
Sevā/worship: continual service to the four-armed Viṣṇu.
