As soon as the PracetÄs saw that the great sage NÄrada had appeared, they immediately got up even from their Äsanas. As required, they immediately offered obeisances and worshiped him, and when they saw that NÄrada Muni was properly seated, they began to ask him questions.

It is significant that all the PracetÄs were engaged in practicing yoga to concentrate their minds on the Supreme Personality of Godhead.
