Nāgendra–Brāhmaṇa Saṃvāda: Praśna-vidhi and Dharmic Approach on the Gomatī Riverbank
सांख्यानां योगिनां चापि यतीनामात्मवेदिनाम् | मनीषितं विजानाति केशवो न तु तस्य ते
sāṅkhyānāṃ yogināṃ cāpi yatīnām ātmavedinām | manīṣitaṃ vijānāti keśavo na tu tasya te ||
Sinabi ni Vaiśaṃpāyana: Ang kahulugang nilalayon ng mga Sāṅkhya, ng mga yogin, at ng mga asetikong nakakakilala sa Sarili ay tunay na nauunawaan ni Keśava; ngunit hindi nila ganap na nauunawaan ang layon ng Kanyang isip.

The verse asserts a hierarchy of understanding: even accomplished Sāṅkhyas, Yogins, and self-knowing ascetics have limited grasp, whereas Keśava comprehends their deepest intentions—implying the need for humility and recognition of the divine or supreme wisdom as surpassing human attainment.
In Vaiśaṃpāyana’s narration within Śānti Parva’s reflective discourse, the speaker emphasizes Keśava’s exceptional insight: He knows the inner purport of various spiritual paths and their practitioners, while they cannot fully fathom His own intent.
