Educational Q&A
True knowledge of the ultimate ‘knowable’ reality is complete and eternal, and it can be affirmed across different orders of beings (gods, ancestors, and even Daityas), suggesting that genuine truth is not confined to a single community or standpoint.
Yājñavalkya is describing how he acquired comprehensive spiritual knowledge from multiple sources—divine, ancestral, and daityic—emphasizing that all these authorities concur in calling the knowable principle complete and everlasting.
