yattavoktaṃ mahābhāge tadasādhyaṃ vibhāti me | tatsādhyaṃ puṇyadānena yajñena tapasāpi ca

FAQs
It lists three dharmic means: puṇya-dāna (charitable giving), yajña (sacrificial/ritual offering), and tapas (austerity or disciplined penance).
It teaches that daunting goals can become attainable through sustained righteous action—generosity, sacred duty, and self-discipline—rather than despair or inaction.
This verse primarily emphasizes karma-oriented dharma (dāna, yajña, tapas). It does not explicitly mention bhakti or a specific deity, though later context in the Purana may frame such acts within devotional intent.
