Nārada–Devamata Dialogue on Prāṇa, Apāna, and Udāna
एतद्ू रूपमुदानस्य परम॑ ब्राह्मणा विदु: । निर्दन्द्मिति यत् त्वेतत् तन्मे निगदत: शृणु
etad rūpam udānasya paramaṁ brāhmaṇā viduḥ | nirdvandvam iti yat tv etat tan me nigadataḥ śṛṇu ||
那罗陀说道：“这便是乌陀那（Udāna）至上的形相，正如诸婆罗门中的知者所理解的那样。至于所谓‘离诸对待’（nirdvandva），且听我为你解说。”
नारद उवाच
Educational Q&A
Nārada points to an inner, yogic understanding of life-breath (udāna) and introduces the ideal of nirdvandva—steadiness beyond opposing experiences—presenting spiritual knowledge as an inward discipline known to the learned.
In the Ashvamedhika Parva’s instructional discourse, Nārada continues explaining subtle doctrine: he identifies a ‘supreme form’ of udāna recognized by sages and then transitions to explain what ‘freedom from dualities’ means, asking the listener to attend closely.
