Udyoga Parva, Adhyaya 104: Nārada on Suhṛt and Nirbandha; the Viśvāmitra–Gālava Exemplum Begins

ततः स भगवांस्तस्य स्कन्‍्धे बाहुं समासजत्‌ । निपपात स भारार्तों विह्नलो नष्टचेतन:

tataḥ sa bhagavāṁs tasya skandhe bāhuṁ samāsajat | nipapāta sa bhārārto vihvalo naṣṭacetanaḥ ||

ثم وضع الربّ المبارك (فيشنو) ذراعه على كتف غارودا. فغمره ذلك الثقل، فاضطرب غارودا وتألّم وسقط، وكأن وعيه قد أوشك أن يزول. ويُبرز هذا المشهد جلال الألوهة الذي لا يُقاس، وأن حتى أشدّ الأقوياء لا بدّ أن يتعلّموا التواضع حين يواجهون قدرةً تتجاوز القوة وحدها.

Educational Q&A

Even extraordinary strength has limits before the Divine; true devotion includes humility and recognition that spiritual reality is not measured by physical power.

After speaking, the Lord places His arm on Garuḍa’s shoulder; the divine weight overwhelms Garuḍa, who collapses and becomes nearly unconscious.
