Narada (in the instructional/descriptive flow; transmitted in the Narada Purana dialogue tradition)
Vrata: none
Primary Rasa: adbhuta
Secondary Rasa: bhakti
It functions as a murti-lakṣaṇa (iconographic) specification: meditating on the deity’s ornaments and emblems stabilizes the mind (dhyāna) and aligns devotion with scriptural form, turning visual symbolism into disciplined worship.
By giving concrete attributes—radiance, ornaments, and sacred emblems—it supports saguna-bhakti: devotion to the Lord with form, where repeated contemplation of these signs becomes a practical method of remembrance (smaraṇa) and worship (pūjā).
A technical, shastric mode of description akin to applied ritual/Mantra tradition: precise lakṣaṇas guide correct visualization and icon-making for pūjā, reflecting the Narada Purana’s Book 1.3 emphasis on structured, rule-based sacred sciences.
