FAQs
“Bhadre” is a respectful vocative meaning “O auspicious/noble lady,” used for a female listener in the surrounding dialogue; the exact identity depends on the chapter’s narrative frame.
It emphasizes exclusivity of allegiance after recognition—once the person has understood/identified “Ayo’s son,” he does not turn elsewhere—and it closes by stating that the teaching has been fully conveyed as an enduring truth already present in the listener’s heart.
It can be read as: the teaching is timeless (“śāśvata”) and resonates as something already inwardly known or intuited (“entered your mind/heart”), suggesting remembrance or confirmation of an inner moral/spiritual insight.
