Nārada’s Darśana of Viśvarūpa Nārāyaṇa and the Caturmūrti Doctrine (नारदस्य नारायणदर्शनं चतुर्मूर्तिविचारश्च)
अत्र गाथा: पुरा गीता: शृणु राज्ञा ययातिना । धार्यन्ते या द्विजैस्तात मोक्षशास्त्रविशारदै:
atra gāthāḥ purā gītāḥ śṛṇu rājñā yayātinā | dhāryante yā dvijais tāta mokṣaśāstraviśāradaiḥ ||
अत्र गाथाः पुरा गीताः शृणु राज्ञा ययातिना । धार्यन्ते या द्विजैस्तात मोक्षशास्त्रविशारदैः ॥
जनक उवाच
Authoritative guidance on liberation is preserved through remembered, time-tested verses; Janaka signals that the coming instruction is rooted in an ancient royal-sage tradition (Yayāti) and validated by experts in mokṣa-śāstra.
Janaka introduces a set of ancient gāthās attributed to King Yayāti and invites the listener to hear them, noting that learned Brahmins who specialize in teachings on liberation keep these verses in continual remembrance.
