The Greatness of Viṣṇu
Uttaṅka’s Hymn, Hari’s Manifestation, and the Boon of Bhakti
तस्माद्भक्तिः सदा कार्या देवदेवस्य चक्रिणः । हरिभक्तिः परा प्रोक्ता सर्वकामफलप्रदा ॥ ५४ ॥
tasmādbhaktiḥ sadā kāryā devadevasya cakriṇaḥ | haribhaktiḥ parā proktā sarvakāmaphalapradā || 54 ||
是故,当恒常修持对诸天之天、执轮者的奉爱。对诃利(Hari)的奉爱被宣说为至上,能赐予一切正当愿求之果。
Narada
Vrata: none
Primary Rasa: bhakti
Secondary Rasa: vira
It establishes Hari-bhakti as the highest spiritual discipline, presenting devotion to Vishnu as the sure means to attain both worldly well-being and the supreme good.
It frames bhakti as a continual practice (“always to be done”) directed to Vishnu (the Chakrin), and declares such devotion to be “para” (supreme), capable of yielding every appropriate result.
No specific Vedanga (such as Shiksha, Vyakarana, or Jyotisha) is taught in this verse; the practical takeaway is the sadhana principle of nitya-bhakti—consistent daily devotion as a disciplined practice.
