नारद-देवमत-संवादः
Nārada–Devamata Dialogue on Prāṇa, Apāna, and Udāna
अन्निर्व देवता: सर्वा इति देवस्प शासनम् | संजायते ब्राह्मणस्य ज्ञानं बुद्धिसमन्वितम्
agnir vai devatāḥ sarvā iti devaspa śāsanam | sañjāyate brāhmaṇasya jñānaṃ buddhisamanvitam ||
Disse Nārada: “Agni é, de fato, todas as divindades”—tal é a ordenança autoritativa da revelação divina. Desse mandamento védico nasce, no brâmane, um conhecimento dotado de discernimento, que orienta a mente para a realidade suprema compreendida como Agni.
नारद उवाच
Educational Q&A
The verse asserts a Vedic principle that Agni is to be understood as encompassing all deities, and that scriptural injunction (Veda) is the source from which discerning spiritual knowledge arises in a properly trained Brahmin.
Nārada is instructing by citing Vedic authority: he quotes an established doctrinal statement and explains its effect—producing buddhi-guided knowledge in the Brahmin—thereby grounding the discussion in revelation and disciplined learning.
