नरनारायण-नारदसंवादः
Nara-Nārāyaṇa–Nārada Discourse on Vision, Elements, and Entry into Vāsudeva
सुखदुःखानि भूतानामजरो जरयत्यसौ । आदित्यो ह्ास्तमभ्येति पुन: पुनरुदेति च,सूर्य प्रतिदिन अस्त होते और फिर उदय होते हैं। वे स्वयं अजर होकर भी प्रतिदिन प्राणियोंके सुख और दुःखको जीर्ण करते रहते हैं
sukhaduḥkhāni bhūtānām ajaro jarayaty asau | ādityo hy astam abhyeti punaḥ punar udeti ca ||
那罗陀说道:“他自身不朽不衰,却使众生的乐与苦渐渐消磨。太阳一次又一次西沉,又一次又一次东升。”
नारद उवाच
Time, symbolized by the Sun’s daily rising and setting, steadily wears down both pleasure and pain; recognizing this helps cultivate detachment, endurance, and equanimity in dharmic life.
Narada offers a contemplative observation using the Sun as an example: though the Sun is described as undecaying, his recurring cycles mark time’s passage and thereby ‘age’ or diminish the lived experiences of beings.
