Shloka 86

देवतापितृप्रश्नः — Nārada at Badarīāśrama: the ultimate referent of daiva and pitṛ worship

Devanagari script

अहमेको न मे कक्रिन्नाहमन्यस्य कस्यचित्‌ | न तं पश्यामि यस्याहं तन्न पश्यामि यो मम,मैं अकेला हूँ। न तो दूसरा कोई मेरा है और न मैं दूसरे किसीका हूँ। मैं ऐसे किसी पुरुषको नहीं देखता, जिसका मैं होऊँ तथा ऐसा भी कोई नहीं दिखायी देता, जो मेरा हो

Transliteration

aham eko na me kaścid nāham anyasya kasyacit | na taṃ paśyāmi yasyāhaṃ tan na paśyāmi yo mama ||

Translation

Vyāsa says: “I am alone. No one truly belongs to me, nor do I belong to anyone else. I do not see any person to whom I can be said to belong; nor do I see anyone who can be called mine.”
