Brahma-vidyā: Satya–Tapas and the Enumeration of Tattvas
Arjuna–Vāsudeva framed dialogue
गुरुर्वाच ब्रह्मणोक्तमिदं सर्वमृषिप्रवरसेवितम् । वेदविद्यां समाश्रित्य तत्त्वभूतार्थभावनम्
vāyudeva uvāca | gurur uvāca brahmaṇoktam idaṁ sarvam ṛṣipravarasevitam | vedavidyāṁ samāśritya tattvabhūtārthabhāvanam |
导师说道：“孩子啊，梵天（Brahmā）早已宣说了这一切——也就是你所提出诸问的答案——其根基在于吠陀之学。最卓越的仙人（ṛṣi）们恒常依止并奉行此教。对这些问题的回应，所作的观照皆指向至上真理与实相的究竟义。”
वायुदेव उवाच
Educational Q&A
That the answers to profound spiritual questions are already articulated within the Vedic tradition as taught by Brahmā and continuously cultivated by eminent sages; one should rely on Vedic knowledge to contemplate tattva (ultimate reality) and its highest meaning.
Vāyudeva reports a teacher’s response to a student: the teacher reassures the student that the questions raised have authoritative answers in Brahmā’s Vedic instruction, long practiced by leading ṛṣis, and that the discussion aims at understanding ultimate truth.
