अध्याय ३३७ — ज्ञानमार्ग-वैविध्यप्रश्नः तथा व्यासस्य नारायणोद्भवकथा
Systems of Knowledge and Vyāsa’s Nārāyaṇa-Origin
नारायणपरो भूत्वा नारायणजयं जपन् | तस्यैव च प्रसादेन पुनरेवोत्थितस्तु सः
nārāyaṇaparo bhūtvā nārāyaṇajayaṃ japan | tasyaiva ca prasādena punarevotthitastu saḥ ||
ਨਾਰਾਇਣ ਵਿੱਚ ਪਰਾਇਣ ਹੋ ਕੇ ਅਤੇ ‘ਨਾਰਾਇਣ-ਜਯ’ ਦਾ ਜਪ ਕਰਦਿਆਂ, ਉਸੇ ਪ੍ਰਭੂ ਦੀ ਕਿਰਪਾ ਨਾਲ ਉਹ ਮੁੜ ਉੱਠ ਖੜਾ ਹੋਇਆ।
देव उवाच
Single-minded devotion to Nārāyaṇa, expressed through steady mantra-recitation, becomes the decisive cause of uplift—because divine grace (prasāda) responds to steadfastness and restores the devotee, leading toward the highest good.
The speaker (Deva) describes a person who remains absorbed in Nārāyaṇa and keeps reciting the ‘Nārāyaṇa-jaya’ utterance; as a result of Nārāyaṇa’s favor, he rises again—signaling rescue from a fallen state and an onward ascent to a higher spiritual destination.
