इदानीमात्मना सार्द्धं मुक्तिकालो मतोऽस्ति ते ॥ उत्तिष्ठ गम्यतां पुत्र मया सार्द्धं परं पदम्
idānīm ātmanā sārddhaṃ muktikālo mato 'sti te || uttiṣṭha gamyatāṃ putra mayā sārddhaṃ paraṃ padam
Ahora, con tu propio ser plenamente dispuesto, se juzga que para ti ha llegado el tiempo de la liberación (mokṣa). Levántate, hijo mío; vayamos juntos al estado supremo.

FAQs
It preserves a standard Purāṇic idiom where liberation is framed as a decisive ‘time’ and a guided transition, echoing older Upaniṣadic and epic patterns of teacher-led instruction.
No physical location is named; “paraṃ padam” functions as a metaphysical destination rather than a mapped site.
Readiness for liberation is linked to inner preparedness and disciplined life, presented through the teacher’s directive to ‘rise’ and proceed.
