नारद–शुक संवादः
Impermanence, Svabhāva, and Śuka’s Resolve for Yoga
यदानुपश्यते5त्यन्तमहन्यहनि काश्यप । तदा स केवलीभूत: षड्विंशमनुपश्यति
yadānupaśyate ’tyantam ahany ahani kāśyapa | tadā sa kevalībhūtaḥ ṣaḍviṁśam anupaśyati ||
ヤージュニャヴァルキヤは言った。「おおカ―シャパよ、求道者が日々、至上の自己の真実の本性をこの上なく切実に観想するなら、そのとき彼はプラクリティとの一切の交わりを離れて『独りなる者』(ケーヴァリー)となり、二十五のタットヴァを超える第二十六の原理、すなわち至上主を直証する。」
याज़्ञवल्क्य उवाच
Persistent, daily contemplation of the Supreme Self leads to detachment from Prakṛti and culminates in direct realization of the transcendent ‘twenty-sixth’ principle—God/the Supreme beyond the standard Sāṅkhya enumeration.
In a didactic exchange, the sage Yājñavalkya instructs Kāśyapa about the inner discipline of continuous contemplation and its fruit: freedom from Prakṛti’s entanglement and realization of the highest reality.
