FAQs
From this single verse alone, the speaker cannot be identified with certainty; the line indicates a joyful embrace and a remark about “my brother” in Ratnagarbha, but the surrounding verses are needed to name the character.
It highlights affectionate regard and appreciative speech—an embrace followed by praise that the brother has not previously been treated in such a manner.
In this verse it functions as a proper place-name (“in Ratnagarbha”). Etymologically it can mean “having a womb/treasury of jewels,” but the passage uses it as a location associated with the brother.
