Dehānta (Cyavana) and Upapatti: Kāśyapa’s Questions and the Siddha’s Account of Death, Pain, and Karmic Re-embodiment
तथा यद्यद् भवेद् युक्त संनिपाते क्वचित् क्वचित् | तत्तन्मर्म विजानीहि शास्त्रदृष्ट हि तत् तथा
tathā yadyad bhaved yuktaṃ sannipāte kvacit kvacit | tattan marma vijānīhi śāstradṛṣṭa hi tat tathā ||
ດັ່ງນັ້ນເຊັ່ນກັນ ບ່ອນໃດ ເວລາໃດກໍຕາມ ທີ່ອະວັຍະວະມາພົບກັນເປັນຈຸດຕໍ່ ຈົ່ງຮູ້ວ່າ ຈຸດນັ້ນໆແມ່ນຈຸດສຳຄັນ (marma) ເພາະຄຳພີໄດ້ກ່າວລັກສະນະຂອງ marma ໄວ້ຢ່າງນີ້ແທ້.
सिद्ध उवाच
A marma is identified by anatomical convergence: wherever limbs or bodily structures meet and are joined at a junction, that location should be understood as a vital, life-sensitive point, as affirmed by authoritative śāstric tradition.
A Siddha is instructing the listener in a technical, śāstra-based way—defining how to recognize marma points by observing bodily junctions, a knowledge relevant to disciplined conduct in combat and to understanding bodily vulnerability.
