Nāgendra–Brāhmaṇa Saṃvāda: Praśna-vidhi and Dharmic Approach on the Gomatī Riverbank

पुनरुत्तस्थतु: शीघ्रं रसानामालयात्‌ तदा । ददृशाते च पुरुषं तमेवादिकरं प्रभुम्‌

punar uttasthatuḥ śīghraṃ rasānām ālayāt tadā | dadṛśāte ca puruṣaṃ tam evādikaraṃ prabhum ||

于是二者从那“诸味之所”迅速再度起身。就在那一刻,他们看见同一位“人”——原初的造作者、至上的主宰——立于面前。此段意在昭示:真正的觉悟并非仅是品尝世间诸“味”,而是回返以瞻见奠基并统摄一切经验的第一因。

Educational Q&A

The verse points beyond sensory or experiential ‘rasas’ to their source: after engaging with the realm of essences, one must rise and behold the primordial Lord (Puruṣa) as the first cause and true sovereign. Ethically, it supports detachment from enjoyment as an end in itself and reorientation toward the ultimate ground of reality.

Two figures (implied by the dual verbs) quickly rise from the ‘abode of rasas/essences’ and then see again the same supreme Person—described as the primal maker and lord—indicating a renewed encounter or recognition of the ultimate being after a prior experience or instruction.
