Brahma-vidyā: Satya–Tapas and the Enumeration of Tattvas
Arjuna–Vāsudeva framed dialogue
प्रधानगुणतत्त्वज्ञ: सर्वभूतविधानवित् | निर्ममो निरहड्कारो मुच्यते नात्र संशय:
pradhāna-guṇa-tattva-jñaḥ sarva-bhūta-vidhāna-vit | nirmamo nirahaṅkāro mucyate nātra saṁśayaḥ ||
Wika ni Vāyu: “Ang tunay na nakakabatid sa mga simulain ng Pradhāna (unang kalikasan) at sa mga guṇa gaya ng sattva, ang nakauunawa sa kaayusan at pamamahala ng lahat ng nilalang, at ang napawi na ang pag-aangkin at ang pagkamakasarili (ahaṅkāra)—siya’y napapalaya. Walang pag-aalinlangan dito.”
वायुदेव उवाच
Educational Q&A
Liberation arises from discriminative knowledge of Pradhāna and the guṇas, together with insight into how beings are constituted and governed, and is completed by inner renunciation—freedom from possessiveness (mamatā) and egoism (ahaṅkāra).
Vāyudeva is delivering an instructive discourse, presenting a concise criterion for mokṣa: metaphysical understanding (Sāṅkhya-style tattva-jñāna) joined to ethical-psychological purification (non-attachment and egolessness).
