भीष्मस्योत्तरायणप्रतीक्षा तथा युधिष्ठिरागमनम् | Bhīṣma’s uttarāyaṇa moment and Yudhiṣṭhira’s arrival
समादिष"्ट श्न विबुधैर्दर्शय त्वमिति प्रभो । सुपर्णो यस्य वीर्येण कश्यपस्यात्मजो बली । अन्तं नैवाशकद् द्रष्टं देवस्पथ परमात्मन:
samādiṣṭaś ca vibudhair darśaya tvam iti prabho | suparṇo yasya vīryeṇa kaśyapasyātmajo balī | antaṃ naivāśakad draṣṭuṃ devaspatha paramātmanaḥ ||
昔、神々はガルダに願った。「主よ、アナンタの果て（限り）を我らに示したまえ。」そこでカश्यパの強き子ガルダは力の限りを尽くしたが、神々の道にして帰依処たる至上我、神なるアナンタの終極を、ついに見ることはできなかった。

Educational Q&A
Even the greatest strength and even divine capability cannot grasp the Infinite; the Supreme (Ananta/Paramatman) transcends measurement, teaching humility and reverence before ultimate reality.
The gods ask that the ‘end’ of Ananta (Śeṣa) be shown. Garuḍa, Kaśyapa’s powerful son, tries with all his might but fails to find or see any limit, highlighting Ananta’s boundlessness.
