Educational Q&A
All śāstric instruction is ultimately grounded in, and culminates in, Nārāyaṇa; the verse asserts a single highest authority and final aim for dharma and spiritual knowledge.
In Vaiśampāyana’s narration within Śānti Parva’s didactic discourse, he emphasizes to the listener that the sages recognize Nārāyaṇa as the supreme source and culmination of scriptural teaching, leaving no rival principle as equal.
