Shloka 10

Kāruṇya-stotra Phalaśruti; Dream-Darśana of Vāsudeva; Manifestation and Pratiṣṭhā of Jagannātha, Balabhadra (Ananta), and Subhadrā

Devanagari script

एकः स देवो भवदुःखहंता परः परेषां न ततोऽस्ति चान्यः । स्रष्टा स पाता सकलांतकर्ता विष्णुः समश्चाखिलसारभूतः ॥ १० ॥

Transliteration

ekaḥ sa devo bhavaduḥkhahaṃtā paraḥ pareṣāṃ na tato'sti cānyaḥ | sraṣṭā sa pātā sakalāṃtakartā viṣṇuḥ samaścākhilasārabhūtaḥ || 10 ||

Translation

唯有祂是能摧破众生忧苦的神祇；祂超越至高之上——在祂之外别无他者。祂是创造者、护持者、亦是令万有归于终极者；那位对一切平等的毗湿奴，正是一切之精髓。

FAQs

It declares Viṣṇu as the sole Supreme Reality—creator, protector, and the one who concludes all cycles—whose realization and refuge remove the sorrow born of saṃsāra.

By identifying Viṣṇu as the only ultimate refuge and the destroyer of worldly suffering, it supports single-pointed devotion (ananya-bhakti) toward Him as the essence of all.

No specific Vedāṅga (like Vyākaraṇa, Jyotiṣa, or Kalpa) is taught directly; the verse is primarily tattva-oriented, grounding practice in the theological certainty of Viṣṇu’s supremacy and impartiality.
