Shloka 29
सूक्ष्मभूत-भूतात्मविज्ञानम्
Knowing the subtle principle and the bhūtātman through yoga
देवं त्रिधातु त्रिवृतं सुपर्ण ये विद्युरग्रयां परमात्मतां च । ते सर्वलोकेषु महीयमाना देवा: समर्त्या: सुकृतं वदन्ति
vyāsa uvāca | devaṃ tridhātuṃ trivṛtaṃ suparṇa ye vidyur agrayāṃ paramātmatāṃ ca | te sarvalokeṣu mahīyamānā devāḥ samartyāḥ sukṛtaṃ vadanti ||
Vyāsa berkata: Mereka yang sungguh mengenal Tuhan yang bersemayam di dalam—yang ditandai oleh bunyi tiga serangkai (A-U-M), hadir sebagai penguasa batin di tengah tiga guna, dan yang gerak-karya kosmis-Nya menghampar laksana daun-daun indah dari pohon agung—serta mengenal kedudukan-Nya yang tertinggi sebagai Diri Yang Mahatinggi, menjadi mulia di segala alam. Bahkan para dewa, bersama manusia, memaklumkan kebajikan dari laku benar mereka.
व्यास उवाच
Educational Q&A
True knowledge of the indwelling Supreme (Paramātman)—recognized through the symbol of Oṃ and understood as the controller of the three guṇas—naturally expresses itself as virtuous conduct (sukṛta). Such knowers gain honor across worlds, and their merit is acknowledged even by gods and humans.
Vyāsa is describing the spiritual stature of those who realize the Supreme Self. He links metaphysical insight (Oṃ, the threefold principle, the Lord as inner ruler) with social and cosmic recognition: their righteous life is praised universally.
