Adhyāya 325: Nārada in Śvetadvīpa—Stotra to the Nirguṇa Mahātman
उवाच गच्छेति तदा जनकं मिथिलेश्वरम् । स ते वक्ष्यति मोक्षार्थ निखिल मिथिलेश्वर:
bhīṣma uvāca | uvāca gaccheti tadā janakaṁ mithileśvaram | sa te vakṣyati mokṣārthaṁ nikhilaṁ mithileśvaraḥ |
Bhishma berkata: Lalu ia berkata, “Pergilah kepada Janaka, raja Mithilā. Sang penguasa Mithilā itu akan mengajarkan kepadamu sepenuhnya makna sejati pembebasan—inti dari mokṣa-dharma.”
भीष्म उवाच
Educational Q&A
The verse emphasizes that the essence of mokṣa-dharma is best learned from a realized authority (here, King Janaka), implying that scriptural mastery should culminate in guidance from one who embodies liberation-oriented wisdom.
A teacher directs the seeker to go to Janaka, the ruler of Mithilā, because Janaka is presented as capable of explaining the complete purport of liberation—positioning him as an authoritative instructor on mokṣa.
