sa nirgataḥ kaurava-puṇya-labdho
Содержание книги
- Situated in your own energy like a spider creating his web, without fatigue, you protect the living beings within yourself, without being destroyed.
- Though you are like this, you performed great austerities. By this you bewilder us. You produce a doubt that there is some other Lord.
- O son! What you say about me is not untrue, because people, not knowing the difference between me and the Lord say that I have that power.
- I meditate on the Supreme Lord Vāsudeva, by whose insurmountable māyā people call me the guru of the universe.
- I am created by him. Inspired by the Lord’s glance, I create what is already created by the Lord -- the witness, the soul situated in all beings.
- Second Description of the Universal Form: Vibhūtis of the Lord
- From his body hairs arose all trees by which sacrifice is performed. From his hair and beard arose clouds and from his nails arose lightning, minerals and metals.
- brahma-nārada-saṁvādaḥ
- Parīkṣit’s Questions
- Please describe the various yugas, their durations, their dharmas, and the astonishing activities of the yugāvatāras of the Lord.
- O Brahmā! All auspiciousness to you! Please ask your desired benediction from me, who can award all benedictions. Endeavors in the process of bhakti end in seeing me.
- Brahmā said: O Supreme Lord! You, the controller of all beings, are situated in their intelligence. You know what all beings desire to do by unimpaired intelligence.
- Follow my instructions in detail, with extreme concentration. You will not be bewildered at any time during your lifetime and its subdivisions.
- Ten Characteristics of a Purāṇa
- a-kathā refers to descriptions of the Lord’s avatāras and their devotees, filled with various stories.
- When the pure puruṣa, separating himself from the universe, remained outside, desiring a place to lie down in the universe, he created the pure waters of the Garbhodaka.
- The wise do not accept these two forms of the Lord described by me since they are composed of matter.
- The Lord has been described in many scriptures as the creator of the universe. Some pure devotees however do not see him only as the creator of the universe.
- Sūta said: I will explain to you what the great sage Śukadeva spoke in response to Parīkṣit when asked by Parīkṣit. Please listen.

sa nirgataḥ kaurava-puṇya-labdho
gajāhvayāt tīrtha-padaḥ padāni
anvākramat puṇya-cikīrṣayorvyām
adhiṣṭhito yāni sahasra-mūrtiḥ
Leaving Hastināpura, Vidura, who was piety for the Kurus, desiring to perform beneficial acts, wandered here and there on the earth, to all the holy places of the Lord, whose two feet are sacred, where many deities of the Lord were installed.
Vidura produced piety for the Kurus (kaurava-puṇya-labdhaḥ). He desired to see those places of the Lord whose two feet are holy places (tīrtha-padaḥ), thinking of those places as the Lord’s feet, in which the forms of the Lord such as Matsya and Kūrma were situated.
|| 3.1.18 ||
pureṣu puṇyopavanādri-kuñjeṣv
apaṅka-toyeṣu sarit-saraḥsu
ananta-liṅgaiḥ samalaṅkṛteṣu
cacāra tīrthāyataneṣv ananyaḥ
Alone he traveled to sacred places where there were forms of the Lord, in cities, in places with clear rivers and lakes, mountain groves, and pleasing gardens.
Ananyaḥ means alone.
|| 3.1.19 ||
gāṁ paryaṭan medhya-vivikta-vṛttiḥ
sadāpluto ’dhaḥ śayano ’vadhūtaḥ
alakṣitaḥ svair avadhūta-veṣo
vratāni cere hari-toṣaṇāni
Wandering over the earth, maintaining himself solely according to his pure vow, bathing constantly for purity, sleeping on the earth, not caring for his body, wearing clothing of a renunciate, and remaining unrecognized by his relatives, he performed austerities for the satisfaction of the Lord.
Traveling over the earth (gām), he maintained himself by pure (medhya) unmixed (vivikta) means (this mean begging). He bathed in every holy place (sadāplutaḥ) and thus purified himself. If he touched something impure after bathing then again he took bath. He always purified himself in order to remember the mantras concerning the Lord (which required a pure body). But he did not decorate his body (avadhūtaḥ). He wore bark clothing (avadhūta-vesaḥ) and was unrecognized by his relatives.
