Mantra-Māhātmya and Sādhana of Kārtavīryārjuna
Nyāsa, Yantra, Homa, and Dīpa-Vrata
पलायंते गृहाद्दूरं तर्पणाद्ध्रवनादपि । अथो दीपविधिं वक्ष्ये कार्तवीर्यप्रियंकरम् ॥ ६१ ॥
palāyaṃte gṛhāddūraṃ tarpaṇāddhravanādapi | atho dīpavidhiṃ vakṣye kārtavīryapriyaṃkaram || 61 ||
Chúng chạy trốn xa khỏi nhà, bị xua đuổi ngay cả bởi nghi thức tarpana (rưới cúng) và các lễ hiến dâng. Nay ta sẽ nói về nghi pháp thắp đèn thiêng, điều làm Kārtavīrya hoan hỷ và ban lợi ích.
Narada
Vrata: Dīpa-vidhi / Dīpa-dāna (lamp rite) for Kārtavīrya (contextual)
Primary Rasa: adbhuta
Secondary Rasa: shanta
The verse frames ritual action as spiritually protective: through prescribed offerings (tarpaṇa) and repelling acts, harmful influences are driven away, and the text transitions to the dīpa-vidhi—lamp worship as a dharmic safeguard and merit-producing practice.
By introducing the dīpa-vidhi, it points to devotion expressed through upacāra (ritual service). Offering light is a classic bhakti-act—external worship that supports inner reverence, purity, and steadiness of mind.
It highlights applied ritual procedure (kalpa-style practice) within the Vedanga/technical section: how specific acts like tarpaṇa and lamp-rites are used for protection and auspiciousness in a household setting.
