It emphasizes fire-facing worship as a disciplined ritual setting and directs devotion toward the divine carrier Garuda, linking precise external procedure with focused reverence.
Bhakti here is expressed as reverential worship (arcana) of the sacred figure ‘khageśvara’ with careful observance—devotion made concrete through correct offerings and ritual placement before Agni.
It reflects prayoga-style ritual instruction: specifying where worship is performed (before Agni) and using precise classifications (color/variety terms), aligning with Vedanga-oriented technical discipline used in rites.
