Śreyas and Paramārtha: The Ribhu–Nidāgha Teaching on Non-Dual Self
Advaita
किं वक्ष्यतीति तत्रापि श्रूयतां द्विजसत्तमा । मिष्टमेव यदामिष्टं तदेवोद्वेगकारणम् ॥ ५९ ॥
kiṃ vakṣyatīti tatrāpi śrūyatāṃ dvijasattamā | miṣṭameva yadāmiṣṭaṃ tadevodvegakāraṇam || 59 ||
“他将说什么?”——即便在此,也请聆听,噢二生中最胜者。当甘美之物变得不再可喜,正是那甘美反成扰动之因。
Sanatkumara (teaching Narada, addressing him as dvijasattama)
Vrata: none
Primary Rasa: shanta
Secondary Rasa: karuna
It teaches that agitation (udvega) is not produced by objects alone, but by attachment: even something pleasant becomes distressing when it turns unwanted or uncertain, revealing the need for detachment (vairagya) on the path to moksha.
By exposing how worldly sweetness becomes a source of anxiety, the verse indirectly redirects the seeker toward steadier refuge—devotion to the Lord—where joy is not dependent on changing circumstances and expectations.
No specific Vedanga (like Vyakarana, Jyotisha, or Kalpa) is taught in this line; the practical takeaway is ethical-psychological discipline—watching expectation and attachment as the immediate causes of mental disturbance.
