In Hinduism
Pancaratra (worship of Nārāyaṇa)
: archive.org: Catalogue of Pancaratra Agama Textsʰ貹ԲԲṛtٲ峦 (प्रपन्नवृत्त्याचार) (lit. “general and special rules of conduct for prapannas�) is the name of the second chapter of the ʲśṃh: a Pañcarātra work of some 2000 verses dealing withe the composition and applications of Mantras, the characteristics of devotees (prapanna) and initiation.
Description of the chapter [貹ԲԲṛtٲ峦]: The sage asks Parāśara to tell more about the ways in which prapannas should behave. Quoting Bhagavān, he says the path of behavior [ṛtپ, 峦] is easy, but certain rules laid down in the Vaiṣṇava scriptures [ṣṇśܳپ] must be practiced. He mentions that the following sacraments are to be observed: ٲ첹, 峾첹ṇa, ԲԲśԲ, caula,—all with śṅk and cakra (3-16). Other rules, too, are to be honored: in shaving (17-26), in the method of applying the ṇḍ-mark with the yellow-sandal paste color in the center (27-33); uttering daily the ⲹٰī-, ṣṭṣa- and dvaya-mantras correctly and piously (34-5), while avoiding certain people of evil ways as well as the evil ways themselves (52-55), and in the observance of general rules of conduct suitable to a prapanna (56-71).
Then follows a section describing a �貹Գپ”—namely, one who observes the proper rules of conduct for a prapanna and who worships the Lord in a ⲹṃvⲹٲ-place (72-75). The chapter ends by citing as those wise in the ways of Pāñcarātra [ñٰñ] who adhere to certain legal authorities: Āpastamba, Yājñavalkya, Bodhāyana, Vaikhānasa, Āśvalāyana, et. al. All who follow their teachings will surely get salvation, so long as every action observed is dedicated to the Lord (76-81).

Pancaratra (पाञ्चरात्र, pāñcarātra) represents a tradition of Hinduism where Narayana is revered and worshipped. Closeley related to Vaishnavism, the Pancaratra literature includes various Agamas and tantras incorporating many Vaishnava philosophies.
