It signals that the text transmits dharma through narrative: stories of deities and sages are explicitly linked with vrata-akhyānas, presenting vows as practical, story-grounded disciplines for purification and merit.
By pointing to accounts centered on Devī and divine beings, it indicates that devotion is taught via kathā (sacred narrative) and vrata (observance), where disciplined worship and remembrance become embodied bhakti.
The emphasis is on ritual practice rather than a specific Vedāṅga: vrata-akhyānas imply guidance aligned with Kalpa (procedural dharma/ritual conduct), i.e., how vows and observances are to be undertaken in lived practice.
