यमसभावर्णनम् (Yamasabhā-varṇanam) — Nārada’s Description of Dharmarāja’s Assembly

न शोको न जरा तसस्‍यां क्षुत्पिपासे न चाप्रियम्‌ । न च दैन्यं क्लमो वापि प्रतिकूलं न चाप्युत,उसके भीतर न शोक है, न जीर्णता; न भूख लगती है, न प्यास। वहाँ कोई भी अप्रिय घटना नहीं घटित होती। दीनता, थकावट अथवा प्रतिकूलताका तो वहाँ नाम भी नहीं है

na śoko na jarā tasyāṃ kṣutpipāse na cāpriyam | na ca dainyaṃ klamo vāpi pratikūlaṃ na cāpy uta ||

นารทกล่าวว่า “ในที่นั้นไม่มีความโศก ไม่มีความชรา ไม่มีความหิวและความกระหาย และไม่มีสิ่งใดอันไม่น่ารื่นรมย์ ความยากไร้ ความอ่อนล้า หรือสิ่งอันเป็นปฏิปักษ์—แม้ชื่อก็หาไม่”

Educational Q&A

The verse highlights an ideal state where the causes of human distress—grief, aging, deprivation, and adversity—do not operate, implicitly encouraging detachment from transient worldly conditions and valuing a dharmic life oriented toward higher well-being.

Nārada is describing the qualities of a particular exalted realm/condition, emphasizing its freedom from suffering and negative experiences to convey its superiority to ordinary worldly life.
