毗湿摩说道：凡以此法一年之久礼拜“莲眼者”普恩陀利迦克沙（Puṇḍarīkākṣa，即毗湿奴 Viṣṇu），便得忆念前生之力，并且获得大量黄金。

Educational Q&A
Steady, long-term worship of Viṣṇu (Puṇḍarīkākṣa) as a disciplined vow is praised as dharmic practice that yields both inner fruit (jātismaratva—recollection of past births) and outer fruit (material prosperity, symbolized by gold).
In Bhīṣma’s instruction on dharma and religious observances, he states the promised results of performing Viṣṇu’s worship continuously for a year, describing the merit and rewards that accrue to the practitioner.
