Parīkṣit’s Final Absorption, Takṣaka’s Bite, Janamejaya’s Snake Sacrifice, and the Vedic Sound-Lineage
यदुपासनया ब्रह्मन् योगिनो मलमात्मन: । द्रव्यक्रियाकारकाख्यं धूत्वा यान्त्यपुनर्भवम् ॥ ३८ ॥
yad-upāsanayā brahman yogino malam ātmanaḥ dravya-kriyā-kārakākhyaṁ dhūtvā yānty apunar-bhavam
ഹേ ബ്രാഹ്മണാ! ഈ വേദങ്ങളുടെ സൂക്ഷ്മരൂപത്തെ ഉപാസിക്കുന്നതിലൂടെ യോഗികൾ ദ്രവ്യം, ക്രിയ, കർത്തൃത്വം എന്നിവയിൽ നിന്നുള്ള മലിനത കഴുകി നീക്കി, പുനർജന്മരഹിതമായ നിലയിലേക്കെത്തുന്നു.
This verse says that by worshiping the Supreme Lord, yogīs cleanse the soul’s impurity—especially the false identification with matter, action, and doership—and thus attain freedom from rebirth.
In the Bhāgavatam’s conclusion, Śukadeva emphasizes that genuine liberation is achieved not merely by technique, but by devotion (upāsanā) that dissolves egoistic doership and material identification.
Offer your actions to Bhagavān, reduce ego-based claims (“I am the doer”), and practice devotional remembrance so work becomes service rather than binding karma.
