ହେ ଅଚ୍ୟୁତ! ଏଗୁଡ଼ିକ ଭଗବାନଙ୍କ ଗୁହ୍ୟ ନାମ; ମହାତ୍ମା ତଣ୍ଡି ମୋତେ ଯାହା କହିଥିଲେ—ଯାହା ପୁରାତନକାଳରେ ଦେବ (ମହାଦେବ)ଙ୍କ ପ୍ରସାଦରେ ଦେବେଶ ବ୍ରହ୍ମା ମହାତ୍ମା ତଣ୍ଡିଙ୍କୁ କହିଥିଲେ।

Educational Q&A
Sacred knowledge—especially divine names—is portrayed as a grace-bestowed, lineage-transmitted teaching: it is received through divine favor (prasāda) and passed on responsibly from a qualified source to a worthy recipient.
Vāyu addresses Kṛṣṇa (Acyuta) and explains the provenance of certain secret names of Mahādeva: Brahmā once taught them to the sage Taṇḍi by Mahādeva’s grace, and Taṇḍi later recounted those same names to Vāyu.
