বৈশম্পায়নে ক’লে— “মহাপ্ৰভো! মোৰ নিজৰ কোনো কামনা নথকাৰ সত্ত্বেও, কেৱল আপোনাৰ ইচ্ছাতেই মই বাহিৰলৈ ওলাই আহিলোঁ। পদ্মনয়ন! দেৱসকলৰ মাজত অনিন্দ্য আৰু শ্ৰেষ্ঠ আপোনাক মই জানিব বিচাৰোঁ।”

Educational Q&A
The verse highlights humility and devotion: the speaker claims no self-driven agenda and attributes action to the lord’s will, then expresses a sincere desire to know the blameless, supreme divine—framing spiritual inquiry as reverent and ethically grounded.
A narrator-voice (Vaiśaṃpāyana) reports a devotee’s address to a powerful, lotus-eyed deity: the speaker has come forth at the deity’s prompting and now requests true knowledge/recognition of that divine being, praised as faultless and supreme.
