जनक–सुलभा संवादः
Janaka–Sulabhā Dialogue on Mokṣa and Non-attachment
नारदाद् विदितं महामेतद् ब्रह्म सनातनम् | मा शुच: कौरवेन्द्र त्वं श्रुव्वैतत् परमं पदम्
bhīṣma uvāca | nāradād viditaṃ mahad etad brahma sanātanam | mā śucaḥ kauravendra tvaṃ śṛṇvaitat paramaṃ padam ||
بھیشم نے کہا—نارَد کے ذریعے مجھے اس عظیم، سناتن برہمن کا علم ہوا ہے۔ اے کوروؤں کے سردار! غم نہ کرو؛ اس اُپدیش کو سنو، کہ یہی پرم پد ہے۔
भीष्म उवाच
Educational Q&A
That knowledge of the eternal Brahman—received through an authoritative sage-lineage—is the ‘supreme state’ (paramaṃ padam) and is presented as the remedy for grief: by turning the mind toward ultimate reality, sorrow rooted in worldly loss is to be relinquished.
Bhishma, instructing the Kuru king, introduces a high spiritual doctrine and legitimizes it by citing its transmission from Narada. He urges the listener to stop grieving and to hear the teaching that leads to the highest goal.
