Educational Q&A

True authority is ennobled by the constant presence of wisdom and self-restraint: the assembly is portrayed as legitimate and auspicious because it is inhabited by disciplined sages and renowned teachers, not merely by power-holders.

Nārada is describing the splendor and sanctity of a divine assembly (the court being depicted in this section), noting that eminent preceptors like Bṛhaspati and Śukra, along with many vow-observant sages, are continually present there.
