यदाहीशो विपुलामुद्धरेच्च तदा रामः श्रीभिदासंगमे च / करोति तोषत्सर्वदा वै रमायास्तस्याप्यावेशो व्यंस्त्रितमोनसंगम्

Transliteration

yadāhīśo vipulāmuddharecca tadā rāmaḥ śrībhidāsaṃgame ca / karoti toṣatsarvadā vai ramāyāstasyāpyāveśo vyaṃstritamonasaṃgam

Translation

جب پرمیشور عظیم بوجھ (یا زمین) کو اٹھا کر اُدھار کرتے ہیں، تب رام بھی شری سے وابستہ مقدس سنگم میں ہمیشہ رَما (لکشمی) کو مسرّت بخشتا ہے۔ اُس کے محض آویش سے دل و ذہن کی تاریکی کی گرہ بکھر کر دور ہو جاتی ہے۔

Speaker

Lord Vishnu (speaking to Garuda/Vinata-putra in the Garuda Purana dialogue frame)

Philosophical Teaching

Concept: Īśvara’s avatāra/entry (āveśa) dispels tamas and mental bondage; delighting Ramā (Lakṣmī) indicates harmony of Lord and Śrī as grace-bestowing power.

Vedantic Theme: Removal of avidyā/tamas by īśvara-sannidhi; mind’s saṅga (attachment) loosened through divine contact and remembrance.

Application: Seek sāttvika environments (tīrtha, satsanga), practice nāma-smaraṇa; treat ‘entry’ as daily invocation—begin actions with remembrance to reduce mental entanglement.

FAQs

What is the importance of divine presence (āveśa) in the Garuda Purana?

This verse presents āveśa—God’s entry/pervasion—as a force that dispels mental entanglement, implying that remembrance and devotion purify the inner state.

How does this verse explain the path of the soul?

While not describing post-death geography directly, it points to inner purification: loosening mind-attachment is a prerequisite for a clearer spiritual course and freedom from binding impressions.

Practical application of this wisdom today?

Cultivate steady devotion and remembrance of Vishnu/Rāma (japa, prayer, ethical living); the verse frames this as a method to reduce attachment-driven agitation of the mind.
