ब्रह्मोवाच । विष्णुभक्तिर्दृढा कार्या वेदशास्त्रविधानतः । वेदमूलमिदं सर्वं वेदो विष्णुः सनातनः
brahmovāca | viṣṇubhaktirdṛḍhā kāryā vedaśāstravidhānataḥ | vedamūlamidaṃ sarvaṃ vedo viṣṇuḥ sanātanaḥ
برہما نے کہا: وید اور شاستر کے احکام کے مطابق وِشنو کی بھکتی کو مضبوط کرنا چاہیے۔ یہ سب کچھ وید ہی میں جڑ رکھتا ہے؛ اور وید خود سناتن وِشنو ہے۔
Brahmā
Listener: Nārada
Scene: Brahmā teaches that steadfast Viṣṇu-bhakti must follow Veda and śāstra; the Veda is shown as radiant, merging symbolically with Viṣṇu’s form.
Devotion is not arbitrary; it is strengthened when aligned with Vedic-scriptural discipline and reverence for the Veda as divine.
No single tīrtha is named in this verse; it provides doctrinal grounding within the Hāṭakeśvara-kṣetra māhātmya context.
To practice firm Viṣṇu-bhakti in accordance with Veda and śāstra—i.e., regulated worship and conduct.
