Nadam or sound is the basis of creation.If it comes down as an education it becomes music.The heart of the Bhakta melts at the divine music.The state of Avadhuta is the eight state in Yoga.He is in a state when his heart melts and he is immersed in the devotion of God.Tears of happiness rolled down his cheeks as he listens and sings in praise of God and this is the state of Avadhuta.Narada started his Bhajan of Vishnu by listening to the songs of Sri Krishna.To consider the Universe as God and to immerse in that thought leads to Vishnu Upasana.When you are in this state you go away from this world and attain balance and composure and not influenced by this outside world.To be able to see God in five elements of Nature and that is what Prahlada did.We are different from them as we see the world we are unable to see Vishnu in all objects.
Narada got Bhakti as well as Jnana by the grace of sages whom he served with devotion.Jnana without Bhakti is of no use.Bhaktas get realization spontaneously.sradha is a pert of Bhakti.Narada conquered Rajas and Tamas Gunas by Bhakti Marga with the help of those Sages.They did not lookdown upon him for being the son of a servant instead blessed him with abundant grace.If Drona were to be yogi he would not have asked Ekalavya his thumb as Guru Dakshina.Real yogi is a one who can recognize the brightness in the opposite person.
