Adhyāya 199: Karma–Jñāna Causality and the Nirguṇa Brahman
Manu’s Instruction
जिता लोकास्त्वया सर्वे ये दिव्या ये च मानुषा: । देवानां निलयान् साधो सर्वनुत्क्रम्य यास्यसि,तुमने दिव्य और मानुष सभी लोकोंपर विजय प्राप्त की है। साधो! तुम सम्पूर्ण देवताओंके लोकोंको लाँधकर उनसे भी ऊपर जाओगे
jitā lokās tvayā sarve ye divyā ye ca mānuṣāḥ | devānāṁ nilayān sādho sarvān utkrāmya yāsyasi ||
ธรรมะกล่าวว่า “โลกทั้งปวง—ทั้งโลกทิพย์และโลกมนุษย์—ท่านได้พิชิตแล้ว โอ้ท่านผู้ประเสริฐ เมื่อก้าวล่วงสถิตสถานของเทพทั้งหลาย ท่านจักไปให้พ้นเหนือพวกเขาด้วย”
धर्म उवाच
True excellence is measured not merely by reaching heavenly rewards but by surpassing even the highest divine stations through steadfast virtue; Dharma affirms that ethical perfection can lead beyond ordinary celestial attainments.
Dharma addresses a virtuous person and declares that, through their merit, they have ‘won’ access to all human and celestial realms and will even pass beyond the gods’ abodes—an honorific proclamation of extraordinary spiritual destination.
