Parīkṣit’s Final Absorption, Takṣaka’s Bite, Janamejaya’s Snake Sacrifice, and the Vedic Sound-Lineage
जातूकर्ण्यश्च तच्छिष्य: सनिरुक्तां स्वसंहिताम् । बलाकपैलजाबालविरजेभ्यो ददौ मुनि: ॥ ५८ ॥
jātūkarṇyaś ca tac-chiṣyaḥ sa-niruktāṁ sva-saṁhitām balāka-paila-jābāla- virajebhyo dadau muniḥ
沙迦利耶的弟子阇都迦尔尼耶将所受诵集分为三部,并增补第四部“尼噜迦多”(词义释),分别教授给婆罗迦、第二位派罗、阇婆罗与毗罗阇。
This verse shows knowledge being safeguarded by a teacher–disciple chain: Jātūkarṇya transmits his own recension, with explanations, to multiple students so the tradition remains intact.
It emphasizes that authentic transmission includes meaning and clarification, not only the words—ensuring future students understand the text correctly.
Study sacred texts under reliable guidance, learn the intended meanings, and help transmit them responsibly—through teaching, careful citation, and faithful practice.
