Educational Q&A

The verse identifies Pradyumna with the universal mind (manaḥ) that pervades all beings; ethically, it points to inner discipline—especially meditation and worship—as a means to align the individual mind with its cosmic source and move toward liberation.

In the Śānti Parva’s instruction section, Bhīṣma is explaining a theological-philosophical mapping of divine principles; here he states that Pradyumna is the name used for the mind of all beings, framing a contemplative doctrine rather than an external event.
