The Description of the Worship of Rāma and Others
Rāmādi-pūjā-vidhāna
बीजैः षड्दीर्घयुक्तैर्वा मंत्रार्णान्पूर्ववन्न्यसेत् । ध्यायेत्कल्पतरोर्मूले सुवर्णमयमण्डपे ॥ ५९ ॥

或以种子音——乃至具六长元音之种子音——否则亦当如前所教,行安置法(nyāsa),安立咒之诸字。继而于如意树(Kalpataru)之根下,在黄金所成之亭殿中,入定观想。

It links outer ritual precision (nyāsa of mantra-syllables) with inner contemplation (dhyāna), teaching that correct placement of mantra-power culminates in a stable, sacred visualization—symbolized by meditation at the kalpataru’s root in a golden maṇḍapa.
Though technical, it supports bhakti by directing the practitioner to internalize the deity’s presence through mantra and focused meditation; disciplined mantra-nyāsa becomes a devotional means of making the heart a “mandapa” for sustained remembrance.
It emphasizes phonetic/metrical precision and mantra-grammar in practice—working with syllables (arṇa), long vowels (dīrgha), and structured nyāsa—reflecting a Śikṣā/Vyākaraṇa-informed approach to mantra-sādhana described in Narada Purana’s technical section.
