Nāgendra–Brāhmaṇa Saṃvāda: Praśna-vidhi and Dharmic Approach on the Gomatī Riverbank

भूतान्तरात्मा वरद: सगुणो निर्गुणोडपि च | विराट्स्वरूप भगवान्‌ नारायण इस जगत्‌के ईश्वर और स्रष्टा हैं, वे ही सब जीवोंके अन्तरात्मा, वरदाता, सगुण और निर्मुणरूप हैं

bhūtāntarātmā varadaḥ saguṇo nirguṇo 'pi ca | virāṭsvarūpo bhagavān nārāyaṇaḥ jagata īśvaraḥ sraṣṭā ca, sa eva sarvabhūtānām antarātmā varadaḥ saguṇa-nirguṇarūpaś ca ||

Vaiśaṃpāyana said: “The Blessed Lord Nārāyaṇa—whose form is the cosmic Virāṭ—is the sovereign and creator of the world. He alone abides as the inner Self in all beings; he is the giver of boons, and is to be understood both with attributes (saguṇa) and beyond attributes (nirguṇa). Thus does this teaching ground ultimate authority and moral order in the one divine reality that pervades all life.”
