नारद–शुक संवादः
Impermanence, Svabhāva, and Śuka’s Resolve for Yoga
अनन्त इति कृत्वा स नित्यं केवलमेव च । धर्माधर्मो पुण्यपापे सत्यासत्ये तथैव च
ananta iti kṛtvā sa nityaṃ kevalam eva ca | dharmādharmo puṇyapāpe satyāsatye tathaiva ca
তাঁক ‘অনন্ত’ বুলি ধৰি সি সদায় কেৱল তেওঁৰেই মাজত স্থিৰ হৈ থাকিল। তেতিয়া তাৰ দৃষ্টিত ধৰ্ম-অধৰ্ম, পুণ্য-পাপ, সত্য-অসত্য—এই সকলো দ্বন্দ্ব একে হৈ গ’ল; আৰু বঁধা নাথাকিল।
भीष्म उवाच
Single-pointed absorption in the Infinite (Ananta) dissolves the binding force of moral dualities—dharma/adharma, merit/sin, truth/falsehood—by shifting one’s standpoint from worldly evaluation to the unconditioned reality.
Bhīṣma continues an instruction in Śānti Parva, describing a person who, by contemplating the Lord as Ananta and clinging to Him alone, transcends ordinary oppositional categories that govern ethical and social life.
