Educational Q&A
The passage highlights disciplined speech as a spiritual instrument: correct phonetics and Vedic accentuation (śikṣā, udātta-ādi) are not merely technicalities but supports for higher yogic absorption, where sound becomes a vehicle for inner steadiness and sacred order (dharma).
Vaiśaṃpāyana describes a figure entering Rasātala and, established in supreme Yoga, producing a powerful, resonant, smooth chant of the Sāma-veda in a high register, carefully aligned with the traditional rules of pronunciation and Vedic accents.
