Adhyāya 122 — Śruta-vṛtta-yukta Brāhmaṇa and the Ethics of Dāna
Maitreya–Vyāsa Saṃvāda
गुणभूतानि भूतानि तत्र त्वमुपभोक्ष्यसे । तत्र ते5हं विनेष्यामि ब्रह्मा त्वं यत्र वैष्यसि
guṇabhūtāni bhūtāni tatra tvam upabhokṣyase | tatra te 'haṃ vineṣyāmi brahmā tvaṃ yatra vaiṣyasi ||
ヴィヤーサは言った。「そこで汝は、五大の変化にすぎぬものと見定めて、執着なく諸々の対象を味わうであろう。そののち私は汝のもとに来て、ブラフマンの智を授ける。汝が望むいかなる世界へも、まさにその界へと私は汝を運ぼう。」
व्यास उवाच
Educational Q&A
Sense-objects should be experienced without clinging, by seeing them as mere modifications of the elemental world; when dispassion matures, the teacher grants brahma-vidyā and guides the seeker toward the desired (and ultimately highest) destination.
Vyāsa promises the listener that after they live with non-attachment—treating worldly enjoyments as elemental transformations—he will personally return to instruct them in Brahman-knowledge and then lead them to the realm they choose.
