Śokanivāraṇa: Non-brooding, Impermanence, Contentment, and Śuka’s Renunciation
गुणैर्भूतानि युज्यंते तथैव च न युज्यते । सर्वाणि नैतदेकस्य शोकस्थानं हि विद्यते ॥ ७ ॥
guṇairbhūtāni yujyaṃte tathaiva ca na yujyate | sarvāṇi naitadekasya śokasthānaṃ hi vidyate || 7 ||
众生因诸性德(guṇa)而系缚,也同样能由诸性德而解脱;然而这一切不及于那唯一者。于祂之中,并无悲苦的立足之地。
Sanatkumara (teaching Narada in Moksha-Dharma context)
Vrata: none
Primary Rasa: shanta
Secondary Rasa: adbhuta
It distinguishes the conditioned soul—bound and released through prakṛti’s guṇas—from the Supreme One, in whom no cause of grief exists, pointing the seeker toward guṇa-transcendence and sorrowlessness.
By implying that refuge in the One beyond guṇas removes the basis of sorrow, it supports bhakti as surrender to the Lord who is untouched by material qualities, leading the devotee toward peace and liberation.
No specific Vedāṅga (like Vyākaraṇa, Jyotiṣa, or Kalpa ritual detail) is taught here; the takeaway is sādhana-practice oriented—cultivating viveka and vairāgya to loosen guṇa-based attachment.
