सम्बन्ध-- परमेश्वरके उपर्युक्त उ०, तत् और सत्--इन तीन नामोंका यज्ञ, दान, तप आदिके साथ क्या सम्बन्ध है? ऐसी जिज्ञाया होनेपर कहते हैं-- तस्मादोमित्युदाह्ृत्य यज्ञदानतप:क्रिया: । प्रवर्तन्ते विधानोक्ता: सततं ब्रह्म॒वादिनाम्
tasmād oṁ ity udāhṛtya yajña-dāna-tapaḥ-kriyāḥ | pravartante vidhānoktāḥ satataṁ brahma-vādinām ||
ゆえに、初めに「オーム(Om)」と唱えて、聖典の規定に従う祭式・布施・苦行の行は、ブラフマンを語り(それに則って生きる)者たちによって絶えず起こされる。
अजुन उवाच
Sacred duties like sacrifice, charity, and austerity should be initiated with the consecrating utterance “Om” and carried out according to scriptural injunction; such disciplined action is characteristic of Brahman-oriented practitioners.
In the didactic flow, the speaker explains how the sacred designation “Om” functions practically: it is pronounced to commence prescribed religious acts, linking outward practice (yajña, dāna, tapaḥ) with the Brahman-centered orientation of the wise.
