ब्राह्मणपूजायां व्युष्टिः — Vyuṣṭi (Merit-Outcome) of Honoring Brāhmaṇas: Kṛṣṇa and Durvāsā

यद्यप्यहमदृष्टं वो दिव्यमद्भुतदर्शनम्‌ | दिवि वा भुवि वा किंचित्‌ पश्याम्यमरदर्शना:

yady apy aham adṛṣṭaṃ vo divyam adbhuta-darśanam | divi vā bhuvi vā kiṃcit paśyāmy amara-darśanāḥ ||

ヴァーユは言った。「たとえ汝らが見ずとも、天にあれ地にあれ、見るべき神妙にして驚異なるものは、我はことごとく直に見る。かかる全知の眼は我が天性の卓越であり、いずこにおいても妨げられぬ。されど我が内に宿る主宰の威力は、我には驚くべきものとは映らぬ。とはいえ、善き人々の耳に入りて語り継がれる言葉は信ずるに足り、石に刻まれた線のごとく久しく地上に残るのだ。」

Educational Q&A

Extraordinary powers or knowledge need not produce pride; more importantly, the words that circulate among the truly virtuous are reliable and leave a lasting moral imprint—like an inscription on stone—shaping dharma in the world.

Vāyu speaks to revered seers, asserting his unobstructed divine perception of wondrous realities in heaven and on earth, while emphasizing that trustworthy tradition and testimony among good people endure and guide conduct.
