गुरुरुवाच कुतस्त्वं कथयानन्द ! चैत्रः को वा त्वयोच्यते ।
सङ्कटं महदाभाति क्व जातोऽत्र ब्रवीषि किम् ॥
gurur uvāca kutas tvaṃ kathayānanda caitraḥ ko vā tvayocyate | saṅkaṭaṃ mahad ābhāti kva jāto 'tra bravīṣi kim ||
استاد نے کہا: “آنند، تم یہ بات کہاں سے کہہ رہے ہو؟ جس ‘چَیتر’ کا تم ذکر کرتے ہو وہ کون ہے؟ ایک بڑا خطرہ ظاہر ہوتا ہے— تم کہاں پیدا ہوئے؟ تم حقیقت میں کیا کہہ رہے ہو؟”

FAQs
The guru models dharmic investigation: when duties depend on facts, one must inquire carefully rather than act on assumptions.
Didactic narrative (ācāra) framed as dialogue; not a pancalakṣaṇa core topic.
The ‘saṅkaṭa’ is also inner: when identity narratives clash, the mind destabilizes; the teacher’s questioning is the beginning of reintegration through discernment (viveka).
