एकधा च द्विधा चैव बहुधा च स एव हि । शतधा सहस्रधा चैव तथा शतसहस्रधा,उनके एक, दो, अनेक, सौ, हजार और लाखों रूप हैं
ekadhā ca dvidhā caiva bahudhā ca sa eva hi | śatadhā sahasradhā caiva tathā śatasahasradhā ||
Vāyu nói: “Chính Ngài, duy nhất ấy, hiện ra trong một hình, hai hình và vô số hình; cũng vậy, trong trăm hình, nghìn hình, thậm chí đến trăm nghìn hình.”
वायुदेव उवाच
Educational Q&A
The One Supreme Being remains a single reality while freely manifesting as countless forms; multiplicity does not contradict unity, and devotion may approach Him through many appearances while recognizing the same underlying Lord.
Vāyu is speaking within the Anuśāsana Parva’s instructional discourse, emphasizing the immeasurable scope of the divine—able to appear as one, two, many, and innumerable forms—supporting a teaching on reverence and right understanding of the Supreme.
