Nārāyaṇasya Guhya-nāmāni Niruktāni (Etymologies of Nārāyaṇa’s Secret Epithets) / नारायणस्य गुह्यनामानि निरुक्तानि
अकर्तारममूर्त च भगवानाह तीर्थवित् | मोक्षके उपायको जाननेवाले भगवान् नारायण कहते हैं कि आदि-अन्तसे रहित, अविनाशी, अकर्ता और निराकार जीवात्मा इस शरीरमें स्थित है
akartāram amūrtaṃ ca bhagavān āha tīrthavit | mokṣake upāyako jñānan-evale bhagavān nārāyaṇaḥ kathayati yathā ādi-antase rahitaḥ avināśī akartā nirākāraḥ jīvātmā asmin śarīre sthitaḥ |
Sinabi ni Nārada: Ipinahahayag ng Mapalad, ang nakaaalam sa banal na tawiran tungo sa paglaya, na ang Sarili (ātman) na nananahan sa loob ng katawang ito ay walang simula at walang wakas, di-nasisira, di-gumagawa (hindi tagaganap), at walang anyo. Kaya ang paraan tungo sa mokṣa ay nakasalig sa pagkilatis na ang Sarili ay di-nadadapuan ng kilos at pagbabago ng katawan, at inihahatid ang tao sa panloob na pagkalas at wastong pagkaunawa, hindi sa panlabas na gawa lamang.
नारद उवाच
Educational Q&A
The Self (jīvātmā) within the body is eternal, imperishable, formless, and a non-agent; liberation is supported by knowledge that distinguishes the Self from bodily actions and changes, fostering detachment and clarity.
Nārada reports a doctrinal statement attributed to Bhagavān Nārāyaṇa, presented as guidance on the means to liberation: recognizing the true nature of the indwelling Self beyond physical form and agency.
