श्रीविष्णुरुवाच । उद्यमः प्राणिभिः कार्यो यथाबुद्धि बलाबलम् । परं फलंति कर्माणि त्वदधीनानि शंकर
śrīviṣṇuruvāca | udyamaḥ prāṇibhiḥ kāryo yathābuddhi balābalam | paraṃ phalaṃti karmāṇi tvadadhīnāni śaṃkara
Śrī Viṣṇu nói: “Muôn loài phải gắng sức theo trí hiểu của mình, cân nhắc sức và yếu. Nhưng quả tối hậu của mọi nghiệp lại tùy thuộc nơi Ngài, hỡi Śaṅkara.”
Śrī Viṣṇu
Tirtha: Avimukta (Kāśī)
Type: kshetra
Scene: Viṣṇu speaks with calm authority to Śaṅkara: one hand gestures toward disciplined effort, the other toward surrender; Śiva listens as the sovereign of fruits, within the sanctified aura of Kāśī.
Do your rightful effort within your capacity, while recognizing that ultimate outcomes mature under the sovereignty of the Divine.
The teaching occurs within the Kāśīkhaṇḍa narrative framework; Kāśī’s sanctity forms the backdrop rather than being named in this verse.
No ritual act is prescribed; it gives a dhārmic principle guiding action and surrender.
