Nārada’s Darśana of Viśvarūpa Nārāyaṇa and the Caturmūrti Doctrine (नारदस्य नारायणदर्शनं चतुर्मूर्तिविचारश्च)
स वनेः5ग्नीन् यथान्यायमात्मन्यारोप्य धर्मवित् | निर्दधन्दो वीतरागात्मा ब्रह्माश्रमपदे वसेत्
sa vaneḥ agnīn yathānyāyam ātmany āropya dharmavit | nirdahand(o) vītarāgātmā brahmāśramapade vaset |
ジャナカは言った。「そののち、法を知る者は聖典の規定に従い、祭火を自己のうちへと収めよ。世俗の結びつきと儀礼への依存を『焼き尽くし』、執着を離れたなら、梵(Brahman)の観想に捧げられた出家・遁世の位(saṃnyāsa)に住すべきである。」
जनक उवाच
The verse teaches the dharmic transition from external ritual maintenance (the sacred fires) to inner realization: one should, in a rule-governed way, internalize the fires into the Self and live as a detached renunciant devoted to Brahman-contemplation.
Janaka is describing the proper conduct of a dharma-knower who is ready for renunciation: after duly concluding the fire-based Vedic obligations by ‘placing the fires in the Self,’ he becomes free from attachment and enters the Brahman-oriented renunciant mode of life.
