Annadāna and the Obstruction of Viṣṇu-Darśana; Vāmadeva’s Teaching and the Vāsudeva Stotra Prelude
एतत्ते सर्वमाख्यातं यत्त्वया परिपृच्छितम् । अन्यत्किं ते प्रवक्ष्यामि तद्वदस्व महामते
etatte sarvamākhyātaṃ yattvayā paripṛcchitam | anyatkiṃ te pravakṣyāmi tadvadasva mahāmate
Segala-galanya telah aku jelaskan kepadamu, sebagaimana yang engkau tanyakan. Apa lagi yang harus aku katakan? Wahai yang berjiwa besar, katakanlah.
Unspecified (narrator/sage responding to a questioner; vocative: mahāmate indicates the addressed interlocutor)
Concept: Right learning proceeds by sincere questioning and complete answers; the teacher invites the student to articulate the next spiritual need.
Application: Ask precise questions in spiritual study; after receiving guidance, reflect and request the next step (practice, prayer, or vow) rather than accumulating trivia.

The speaker confirms that all the earlier questions have been answered and invites the listener to ask the next question, emphasizing a structured teacher–student dialogue.
No. It is a transitional dialogue line and contains no named deities, places, or ritual instructions by itself.
It models respectful inquiry and complete instruction—ask clearly, listen fully, and then proceed step-by-step to further understanding.
