FAQs
By calling Śiva “Viśvātmā” (Universal Self), the verse frames the deity not merely as a personified god but as the all-pervading Self—supporting the Purāṇic move toward a non-sectarian, supra-personal Absolute expressed through divine forms.
No explicit yogic technique is prescribed in this line; instead it highlights inner bhāva (joyful, purified mind—prahṛṣṭa-manas) as the spiritual ground for concord. In Kurma Purana’s broader teaching, such sattvic disposition supports devotion and disciplined practice aligned with dharma and yogic restraint.
Śiva’s joyful assent and his embrace of Keśava dramatize Hari–Hara harmony: the two are shown as mutually honoring, reinforcing the Kurma Purana’s Shaiva–Vaishnava synthesis rather than rivalry.
