Dharmānukathana
Narration of Dharma
परमात्मा जगन्नाथः सर्वकर्म्मफलप्रदः । सत्कर्मकर्तृभिर्नित्यं स्मृतः सर्वार्तिनाशनः । तमुद्दिश्य कृतं यच्च तदानन्त्याय कल्पते ॥ १५२ ॥
paramātmā jagannāthaḥ sarvakarmmaphalapradaḥ | satkarmakartṛbhirnityaṃ smṛtaḥ sarvārtināśanaḥ | tamuddiśya kṛtaṃ yacca tadānantyāya kalpate || 152 ||
至上自性(Paramātmā)、宇宙之主 Jagannātha,赐予一切业行之果报。行善业者恒常忆念于祂,祂能摧灭诸般苦恼。凡以祂为所向而作之事,皆成为无尽不坏功德之因。
Sanatkumara (teaching Narada in dialogue)
Vrata: none
Primary Rasa: bhakti
Secondary Rasa: shanta
It teaches that the Supreme Lord (Jagannatha/Paramatma) governs karma-phala and that remembrance of Him removes distress; most importantly, actions dedicated to Him gain imperishable, limitless spiritual merit.
Bhakti is shown through nitya-smaraṇa (constant remembrance) and offering one’s deeds to the Lord (tam uddiśya). The verse frames devotion not only as worship but as dedicating all righteous conduct to Vishnu as the inner goal.
While not a technical Vedanga lesson, it emphasizes the ritual principle of saṅkalpa/uddeśya (right intention and dedication) found in Vedic practice: the same act gains higher, enduring fruit when consciously offered to the Supreme.
