Adhyāya 51: Kṛṣṇa’s Leave-Taking and Departure for Dvārakā (द्वारकागमनानुमति)
कृतकृत्यश्न स तदा शिष्य: कुरुकुलोदवह । तत् पद समनुप्राप्तो यत्र गत्वा न शोचति,कुरुकुलनन्दन! उस समय कृतार्थ होकर उस शिष्यने वह ब्रह्मपद प्राप्त किया, जहाँ जाकर शोक नहीं करना पड़ता
kṛtakṛtyaś ca sa tadā śiṣyaḥ kurukulodvaha | tat padaṃ samanupprāpto yatra gatvā na śocati ||
风神说道:“其后,那弟子功行圆满,所当作者皆已毕,遂证至上境界(梵、Brahman)。噢,库鲁族中最卓越者啊,抵达彼处之后,便不复忧悲。”
वायुदेव उवाच
The verse highlights mokṣa as the culmination of a life rightly completed: when one becomes kṛtakṛtya (having done one’s duty and inner work), one may attain the supreme state (brahmapada), where sorrow and grief no longer arise.
Vāyudeva describes the outcome for a disciple: after completing his intended discipline and purpose, he reaches the highest spiritual abode, characterized by the absence of grief—an affirmation of liberation as the fruit of fulfilled striving.
