It means one who imparts the extreme knowledge is known as ‘Narada’, ‘Nara’ can be interpreted in two ways – one is absolute knowledge and the other is about ‘man’ or mankind. This means Narada was the custodian of knowledge. He
corrected the mode and mood of the story flow. He was instrumental in putting the things in order. He never allowed minds to go out of focus. Narada’s extraordinary skill in interpreting dharma and keeping the concerned characters well aware of the going are explicit in almost every Purana. In Mahabharata, his dialogue with Dharmaputra was the wonderful elucidation of the methodology of Governance and the Gita for administrators.
Narada was always active in his efforts of propagating dharma and people’s welfare. Along with all these virtues he was a master communicator. Narada was considered to be the first reporter or journalist of the whole universe. He knew the crux of journalism,resolve the complex problems and also to restore dharma and peace. His mastery over journalism and expertise in communication was shown when he gave tips to Yudhistira on governance. Understanding the situation in depth, exactitude and comprehensive approach, ability to analyze,collecting all supportive matters and study, capacity to foresee the after effects, articulating are some of the good qualities of a journalist.
