Shloka 153
नागैः सह ब्राह्मणस्य अतिथिधर्म-व्रतसंवादः | The Brahmin’s Vow and the Nāgas’ Hospitality Appeal
मनोभूतास्ततो भूत्वा प्रद्युम्न॑ प्रविशन्त्युत । फिर उनसे भी मुक्त होकर वे अनिरुद्धविग्रहमें स्थित होते हैं। फिर मनोमय होकर प्रद्युम्नमें प्रवेश करते हैं
manobhūtās tato bhūtvā pradyumnaṁ praviśanty uta |
তারপর তারা মনোময় হয়ে প্রদ্যুম্নের মধ্যে প্রবেশ করে। এ যেন আরও সূক্ষ্ম স্তরে অগ্রসর হয়ে শেষে দিব্য তত্ত্বে লয়েরই ইঙ্গিত।

Educational Q&A
The verse conveys a stepwise interiorization: as one becomes free from grosser limitations, one assumes a subtler, mind-based mode of being and is absorbed into a higher divine principle (here named Pradyumna). It points to liberation as progressive dissolution of individuality into increasingly subtle realities.
Narada is describing a cosmological/spiritual process of merging: certain beings, after attaining a subtle mental state (manobhūta), ‘enter’ Pradyumna—language that indicates absorption into a higher level of manifestation or divinity within a graded hierarchy.
