នាងជាអំណាចបង្កើត ការរក្សា និងការលាយលង់—ពិបាកពណ៌នាខ្លាំង និងមិនអាចឆ្លងកាត់បាន។ នាងជាប្រភពនៃសំឡេង និងជាសព្ទបរិសុទ្ធផ្ទាល់; នាងមាននាមថា «នាទ» ហើយមាននាទជារូបកាយ។
Lord Kurma (Vishnu) teaching in the Ishvara Gita context
Primary Rasa: adbhuta
Secondary Rasa: shanta
It points to the Supreme as the transcendent power behind creation–maintenance–dissolution, yet also immanent as Śabda/Nāda—suggesting Brahman/Īśvara is realized through inner sound (nāda) and mantra (śabda) while remaining beyond speech and conceptual grasp.
The verse supports nādānusandhāna (meditation on inner resonance) and mantra-oriented contemplation: turning awareness from gross speech to subtle sound, using śabda as a doorway to the formless reality—an approach aligned with the Kurma Purana’s Ishvara Gita and Pashupata-leaning yoga vocabulary.
By teaching the Supreme through Śabda/Nāda and cosmic functions, it frames divinity as one transcendent Īśvara expressed through different theological languages—supporting the Kurma Purana’s non-sectarian Shaiva–Vaishnava synthesis rather than a strict separation.
