मनांसि हरयुग्मांते दारयद्वितयं च मे । वशमानय वर्मांते नेत्रमंत्रः समीरितः ॥ १६४ ॥
manāṃsi harayugmāṃte dārayadvitayaṃ ca me | vaśamānaya varmāṃte netramaṃtraḥ samīritaḥ || 164 ||
Ở cuối đôi (âm) «hara», đặt «manāṁsi»; và cũng đặt «dārayad» của ta hai lần. Ở cuối «varman», thêm «vaśamānaya». Như vậy, Netra-mantra đã được tuyên thuyết.
Narada (teaching a technical mantra-formation rule within Vedanga/Mantra-vidya material)
Vrata: none
Primary Rasa: shanta
Secondary Rasa: adbhuta
It preserves a precise, technical method for forming a protective mantra (Netra-mantra), showing that correct phonetic placement and repetition are treated as spiritually efficacious in mantra-vidya.
While primarily technical, it supports devotional practice by providing a structured mantra intended for protection and inner steadiness—conditions that help sustain focused remembrance and worship.
It highlights mantra-formation through phonetic/grammatical placement (a practical application aligned with Śikṣā and Vyākaraṇa-style precision), including rules like “add at the end,” “repeat twice,” and “append a controlling formula.”
