नारद–शुक संवादः
Impermanence, Svabhāva, and Śuka’s Resolve for Yoga
तदनन्तर मुझे तापसे दग्ध होता देख भगवान् सूर्यने कहा--'“तात! तुम दो घड़ीतक इस तापको सहन करो। फिर यह स्वयं ही शीतल एवं शान्त हो जायगा” ।।
tad-anantaraṁ māṁ tāpasena dagdhaṁ hotaṁ dṛṣṭvā bhagavān sūrya uvāca— “tāta! tvaṁ dve ghaṭike tāvat imaṁ tāpaṁ sahiṣyase; tataḥ svayam eva śītalaṁ śāntaṁ ca bhaviṣyati.” śītībhūtaṁ ca māṁ dṛṣṭvā bhagavān āha bhāskaraḥ— “pratiṣṭhāsyati te vedaḥ sakhilaḥ sottaro dvija.”
Pagkaraan, nang makita ng pinagpalang Araw na ako’y sinusunog ng init ng pagtitipâ, sinabi niya: “Anak, tiisin mo ang init na ito sa loob ng dalawang ghaṭikā; saka ito’y kusang lalamig at tatahimik.” Nang ako’y ganap nang lumamig, tumingin sa akin ang banal na Bhāskara at nagpahayag: “O dwija, ang buong Veda—ganap, kasama ang ‘uttara’ nito (ang mga Upaniṣad, ang pinakawakas na bahagi)—ay matatatag na mananahan sa loob mo.”

Educational Q&A
Endurance and disciplined tapas lead to inner cooling (śānti) and readiness for higher knowledge; when the seeker is purified and steadied, sacred learning—up to the Upaniṣadic culmination—can become firmly established within.
Yājñavalkya describes being scorched by ascetic heat; the Sun-god instructs him to endure briefly until the heat naturally subsides. Once cooled, the Sun blesses him that the complete Veda, including its culminating teachings (uttara/Upaniṣads), will be established in him.
