FAQs
The verse elevates śravaṇa (hearing) of a sacred kathā as a direct purifier: the narrative itself is described as jagat-pavitrā (world-cleansing), and the listener is spiritually refined simply by attentive hearing.
It highlights śravaṇa as a core bhakti-limb: devotion grows when divine or dharmic narratives are heard with faith, allowing the teaching to enter through the ear and transform the heart—often presented in Purāṇas as an accessible, powerful practice.
Rather than a specific Vedāṅga technique, the verse emphasizes the disciplined use of vāk (speech) to transmit vidyā—an applied principle aligned with Vyākaraṇa/śāstra-based clarity and the traditional pedagogy of oral teaching and listening.
