In this chapter the necessity of certain practices for a devotee is urged, hinting thereby that mere theoretical knowledge is not of much use, unless it is coupled with the practice of the enjoined duties (the Nitya karma and the Namittika karma). A great emphasis has been laid on the study and teachings of the Vedas, enjoining thereby that the devotee should pay special attention to them. Also importance of teaching is emphasised; No knowledge becomes thorough and impressive in one's own mind unless it is taught to others. So study and teaching of Vedas has been called here as the highest Tapas.
