FAQs
The verse uses the image of being nurtured by Śrī (Lakṣmī) to indicate divine grace and spiritual eligibility, culminating in naiṣṭhikī buddhi—steady, fully established wisdom oriented to liberation (mokṣa).
By linking spiritual attainment to Śrī’s nourishment, it implies that inner progress is sustained by the Lord’s grace mediated through Lakṣmī—an implicit bhakti theme where divine favor supports steadfast realization.
No specific Vedāṅga technique is taught in this line; the practical takeaway is ethical-spiritual discipline leading to naiṣṭhikī buddhi (steady commitment), which undergirds all śāstra study and ritual life.
