Adhyāya 283: Varṇa-vṛtti, Nyāya-ārjana, and the Decline-and-Restoration of Dharma (वर्णवृत्तिः न्यायार्जनं च)
इत्युक्त्वा स महायोगी पश्यति ध्यानचक्षुषा । स पश्यति महादेवं देवीं च वरदां शुभाम्
ity uktvā sa mahāyogī paśyati dhyānacakṣuṣā | sa paśyati mahādevaṁ devīṁ ca varadāṁ śubhām ||
言毕,那位大瑜伽行者以禅定之眼观照。于内观之中,他见到大天(摩诃提婆),亦见到吉祥的女神——赐福施愿者。
वैशम्पायन उवाच
True perception of the divine is presented as an inner attainment: through disciplined meditation (dhyāna), the yogin gains a ‘meditative eye’ (dhyānacakṣus) by which the divine becomes directly knowable, and divine grace is portrayed as responsive (the Goddess as varadā, ‘boon-giver’).
After completing his statement, the great yogin enters or sustains meditative focus and, through inner vision rather than ordinary sight, beholds Mahādeva (Śiva) together with the auspicious Goddess who grants boons.
