Shloka 5
Adhyāya 314 — हिमवदाश्रमः, शक्तिक्षेपकथा, तथा स्वाध्यायविधिः
Himalayan Hermitage, the Myth of the Thrown Spear, and Rules of Vedic Study
दन्द्धमेषां त्रयाणां तु संनिपातं च तत्त्वतः
danddham eṣāṃ trayāṇāṃ tu sannipātaṃ ca tattvataḥ
ヤージュニャヴァルキヤは言った。「真理に即して、この三つの堅固で正確な結合（会合）を説き明かそう。」
याज़्वल्क्य उवाच
Educational Q&A
The verse signals a doctrinal clarification: Yājñavalkya is about to define, with precision and truthfulness, how “three” key principles or factors are to be understood together—emphasizing accurate synthesis rather than partial or confused understanding.
In the Shānti Parva’s instructional setting, Yājñavalkya speaks as a teacher. This line functions as a transition: he announces that he will now explain the true nature of the combined operation or meeting-point of three previously mentioned items.
