Puruṣaikatva-vyākhyāna: The One Virāṭ Puruṣa and the Many ‘Puruṣas’
Rudra–Brahmā Saṃvāda
केवलं पुरुषस्तेन सेवितो हरिरीश्वर: । ततः शीघ्र॑ जहौ शापं ब्रह्मतोकमवाप च,फिर उन्होंने केवल पुरुषप्रवर भगवान् श्रीहरिका सेवन किया, जिससे वे उस शापसे शीघ्र ही छूट गये और ब्रह्मलोकमें जा पहुँचे
kevalaṁ puruṣas tena sevito harir īśvaraḥ | tataḥ śīghraṁ jahau śāpaṁ brahmalokam avāpa ca |
毗湿摩说：他唯独奉事哈利——自在之主、至上之人。于是他迅速摆脱诅咒，得至梵天界（Brahmaloka）。

Educational Q&A
Exclusive devotion to Hari (Viṣṇu) is presented as a powerful means of purification: it can neutralize the burden of a curse and elevate one toward higher spiritual realms, illustrating the interplay of karma and divine grace within dharma.
Bhīṣma recounts that a person, having been under a curse, worshipped Hari alone; as a result, the curse was quickly shed and the person attained Brahmaloka, marking a transition from affliction to spiritual ascent.
