Adhyāya 199: Karma–Jñāna Causality and the Nirguṇa Brahman
Manu’s Instruction
संश्रुतं च मया पूर्व ददानीत्यविचारितम् । तद् गृह्नीष्वाविचारेण यदि सत्ये स्थितो भवान्
I had already promised before, without deliberation, “I will give.” Therefore, take without hesitation what I have granted. If you stand firm in truth, you should surely do so.
