Mokṣopāya: Bhakti-rooted Jñāna and the Aṣṭāṅga Yoga of Viṣṇu-Meditation
रागद्वेषविहीनो यः शमादिगुणसंयुतः । हरिध्यानपरो नित्यं मुमुक्षुरभिधीयते ॥ ५२ ॥
rāgadveṣavihīno yaḥ śamādiguṇasaṃyutaḥ | haridhyānaparo nityaṃ mumukṣurabhidhīyate || 52 ||
Người không còn tham ái và sân ghét, đầy đủ các đức tính bắt đầu từ śama, và luôn chuyên chú thiền niệm về Hari—người ấy được gọi là kẻ cầu giải thoát (mumukṣu).
Sanatkumara (teaching Narada)
Vrata: none
Primary Rasa: bhakti (devotion)
Secondary Rasa: shanta (peace)
It defines the essential signs of a true mumukṣu: inner freedom from rāga-dveṣa, cultivation of śama and related virtues, and unwavering absorption in Hari through meditation.
Bhakti here is expressed as nitya-hari-dhyāna—steady remembrance/meditation on Vishnu—supported by purity of mind (freedom from attachment and aversion) and ethical-psychological discipline (śama and allied qualities).
No specific Vedāṅga (like Vyākaraṇa or Jyotiṣa) is taught in this verse; the practical takeaway is sādhana: mental restraint (śama), self-regulation, and daily meditative devotion to Hari as the core discipline for mokṣa.
