जनक–सुलभा संवादः
Janaka–Sulabhā Dialogue on Mokṣa and Non-attachment
बुध्यते च परां बुद्धि विशुद्धाममलां यदा
budhyate ca parāṁ buddhiṁ viśuddhām amalāṁ yadā
Vasiṣṭha dit : Lorsque l’intellect suprême d’un homme s’éveille—absolument pur et sans tache, fixé uniquement sur Brahman—il réalise directement le Brahman suprême (dont on parle comme du vingt-sixième principe) et devient de sa propre nature. Établi alors dans l’état de Brahman, toujours pur et toujours conscient, il transcende entièrement la Prakṛti non manifestée, dont la fonction est création et dissolution.
वसिष्ठ उवाच
Educational Q&A
When the intellect becomes perfectly purified and fixed on Brahman, direct realization arises; one becomes established in Brahman-consciousness and thereby transcends unmanifest Prakṛti and its cycle of creation and dissolution.
Vasiṣṭha is instructing a king (nṛpaśreṣṭha) in liberation-teaching: he describes the inner transformation of buddhi culminating in Brahman-realization and freedom from the cosmic processes governed by Prakṛti.
