The Description of the Worship of Rāma and Others
Rāmādi-pūjā-vidhāna
अयोध्यानगरे रत्नचित्रसौवर्णमण्डपे । मंदारपुष्पैराबद्धविताने तोरणान्विते ॥ ६८ ॥
ayodhyānagare ratnacitrasauvarṇamaṇḍape | maṃdārapuṣpairābaddhavitāne toraṇānvite || 68 ||
Tại thành Ayodhyā, trên một mandapa vàng ròng được điểm trang hoa văn như châu báu, có mái che kết bằng hoa mandāra và dựng các cổng nghi lễ—khung cảnh thánh hội được bày lập.
Narada (narrative description within the dialogue context)
Vrata: none
Primary Rasa: adbhuta
Secondary Rasa: bhakti
It sanctifies the worship context by describing a properly adorned maṇḍapa—an outer expression of inner reverence—where sacred discourse or pūjā becomes auspicious and dharma-aligned.
Bhakti is supported by seva expressed through orderly, beautiful preparation—flowers, canopy, and toranas—showing devotion not only in thought but also in careful ritual hospitality to the Divine.
It reflects kalpa/ritual praxis (a Vedāṅga-associated domain): arranging the maṇḍapa, vitāna (canopy), and torana according to auspicious ceremonial standards used in pūjā and vrata settings.
