(Procedure of Worship)<br />

Skanda said:<br />

Having listened to the description of the Dharma to be followed<br />

by an ardent devotee from the Lord, Narada was filled<br />

with great joy; he once again asked again him thus. (1)<br />

Narada said:<br />

“Oh Lord! You have explained the Dharma to be followed by<br />

an ardent devotee very well. My mind is filled with great joy<br />

by listening to it. (2)<br />

O God! I wish to listen to the procedure of Kriya Yoga to<br />

accomplish this Dharma that is agreeable to you.” (3)<br />

Sri Narayana said:<br />

Chapter 26<br />

“Narada! the method of worshipping <strong>Vasudev</strong>a is known as<br />

Kriya Yoga. It has been described in many ways in the Vedas<br />

and Tantras. (4)<br />

Owing to different tastes of the devotees and different types<br />

of idols of Lord <strong>Vasudev</strong>a, this Kriya Yoga has been described<br />

in different ways. (5)<br />

There will be no end if all those are to be explained separately.<br />

Hence, I will concisely tell you that method of worship,<br />

which increases devotion (towards the Lord). (6)<br />

All those belonging to four classes, four stages of life and the<br />

ladies of those classes who have received initiation into the<br />

Vaishnava faith are qualified to perform this Yoga. (7)
