Śiva-stavarāja: Upamanyu’s Preface and Initiation of the Śarva-Nāma Enumeration
Anuśāsana-parva 17
तेन ते श्रावयिष्यामि यत् तद् ब्रह्म सनातनम् । न शक््यं विस्तरात् कृत्स्नं वक्तुं सर्वस्य केनचित्
tena te śrāvayiṣyāmi yat tad brahma sanātanam | na śakyaṃ vistarāt kṛtsnaṃ vaktuṃ sarvasya kenacit ||
“因此，我将为你诵说那永恒的至梵。然而，任谁也无法将其全体详尽道尽；其境界广大无边，非言辞所能穷尽。”

Educational Q&A
The verse frames Brahman as eternal and ultimately beyond exhaustive verbal description. It teaches epistemic humility: sacred truth can be indicated and heard, but not completely captured in detailed speech.
Vāyudeva begins an instruction by promising to recite the eternal Brahman to the listener, while simultaneously cautioning that no speaker can fully articulate the entirety of that supreme reality in elaborate detail.
