जो वेदवेत्ता और अध्यात्मशास्त्रके विद्वान् ब्राह्मण हैं, वे परमात्मा श्रीकृष्णको ही सनातन धर्मरूप बताते हैं
ye vedavettāraḥ adhyātmaśāstra-vidaḥ brāhmaṇāḥ, te paramātmānaṃ śrīkṛṣṇam eva sanātana-dharma-rūpaṃ vadanti
ダウミヤは言った。「真にヴェーダを知り、自己の学に通じたバラモンたちは、至上の自己—ただシュリー・クリシュナのみ—こそが永遠のダルマの体現であると宣言する。」

The verse asserts a theological-ethical identity: the highest spiritual reality (Paramātmā) and the eternal moral order (Sanātana Dharma) are not separate; learned Vedic and adhyātma authorities recognize Śrī Kṛṣṇa as the embodiment of that timeless dharma.
Dhaumya, speaking as a trusted priestly guide, invokes the testimony of Veda-knowing Brahmins and spiritual philosophers to establish Kṛṣṇa’s supreme status and to frame dharma as grounded in the divine—strengthening the listeners’ confidence in righteous conduct aligned with Kṛṣṇa.
