Adhyaya 25Madālāsā’s Return, Royal Succession, and the First Teaching to Vikrānta

शुद्धोऽसि रे तात न तेऽस्ति नाम

कृतं हि ते कल्पनयाधुनैव ।

पञ्चात्मकं देहमिदं तवैत्तन्

नैवास्य त्वं रोदिषि कस्य हेतोः ॥

śuddho 'si re tāta! na te 'sti nāma kṛtaṃ hi te kalpanayādhunaiva | pañcātmakaṃ deham idaṃ tavaitan naivāsya tvaṃ rodiṣi kasya hetoḥ ||

أنتَ طاهرٌ يا بُنيَّ الحبيب؛ لا اسمَ لك على الحقيقة—فهذا الاسم إنما صيغ لك الآن بالخيال. وهذا الجسدُ مؤلَّفٌ من العناصر الخمسة؛ ولستَ أنتَ ذلك. فلأيِّ سببٍ تبكي إذن؟

FAQs

Identity based on name and body is constructed and temporary; recognizing oneself as distinct from the elemental body reduces suffering rooted in misidentification.

Not a cosmological sarga/pratisarga passage; it is best cataloged as vaṃśānucarita with explicit mokṣa-śāstra instruction (didactic overlay within dynastic narrative).

The ‘five-element body’ is treated as an object (dṛśya) while the child is addressed as pure subject (draṣṭṛ). The lullaby functions as nididhyāsana-seed: repeated hearing plants non-identification (dehābhimāna-tyāga).
