Shloka 42
ब्राह्मणपूजायां व्युष्टिः — Vyuṣṭi (Merit-Outcome) of Honoring Brāhmaṇas: Kṛṣṇa and Durvāsā
प्रकृति: सा मम परा न क्वचित् प्रतिहन्यते । न चात्मगतमैश्चूर्यमाश्षर्य प्रतिभाति मे
prakṛtiḥ sā mama parā na kvacit pratihanyate | na cātmagatam aiśvaryaṃ āścarya-pratibhāti me, maharṣayaḥ |
وایو نے کہا—اے مہارشیو، میری وہ برتر فطرت کہیں بھی رُکتی نہیں۔ اور جو اقتدار و شوکت میرے اندر قائم ہے وہ مجھے ‘حیرت’ کے طور پر محسوس نہیں ہوتی۔

Divine capacities (omniscience, lordship) may be natural and unimpeded for a deity, yet ethical authority is still grounded in the trustworthy speech of the virtuous; what the good proclaim is to be relied upon and has lasting force, like an inscription on stone.

He then emphasizes that, despite his direct knowledge of wondrous things in heaven and on earth, the testimony heard among righteous people remains especially credible and enduring.
