Verse 47

⁴⁷Bowing so to that first sage and to his pupils, the great ones, he went then to the hermitage of my own father, Dvaipayana himself. ⁴⁸Welcomed by the revered one, and having taken the seat that was given him, he set out for him what he had heard from Narayana's mouth. ⁴⁹So this has been set out, king, which was the question you put to us: how the mind may move upon Brahman, which cannot be pointed to and is beyond the strands. ⁵⁰He who looks out upon this at its beginning, its middle and its end; who is the lord of the unmanifest and of the living being; who, having sent this forth, entered it and with the sage made the cities and rules them; whom reaching, the one who lay with the unborn one lets her go, as a sleeper leaves his nest: on him, Hari, in whom there is no fear, whose womb is cast out by aloneness, one should meditate without a break.
