ଜମ୍ବୁକ କହିଲା—ମୋର ଏହି କଥାଗୁଡ଼ିକ ତୁମମାନଙ୍କୁ ବହୁତ କଠୋର ଲାଗିପାରେ; କିନ୍ତୁ ସେଗୁଡ଼ିକ ଯୁକ୍ତିସମ୍ମତ ଏବଂ ମୋକ୍ଷଧର୍ମ ସହ ସମ୍ବନ୍ଧିତ। ତେଣୁ ସେଗୁଡ଼ିକୁ ଗ୍ରହଣ କରି, ମୋ କଥାମତେ ତୁମେ ପ୍ରତ୍ୟେକେ ଶୀଘ୍ର ନିଜ ନିଜ ଘରକୁ ଫେରିଯାଅ।

Educational Q&A

What is the core teaching?

Even if guidance sounds severe, it should be accepted when it is rational (hetumat) and aligned with mokṣa-dharma—teaching detachment and right conduct aimed at liberation rather than mere comfort.

What is happening in the narrative?

Jambuka concludes an admonition: he acknowledges the bluntness of his words, justifies them as reason-based and liberation-oriented, and instructs his listeners to depart promptly, each returning to their own home.
