至尊主說:我將這不朽的瑜伽(Yoga)傳授給韋瓦斯瓦(Vivasvan),韋瓦斯瓦將此教導給摩奴(Manu),摩奴又傳授給益世瓦庫(Ikṣvāku)。
The Blessed Lord said I imparted this imperishable Yoga to Vivasvan, Vivasvan taught this to Manu, and Manu transmitted this to Iksavaku.
韋瓦斯瓦(Vivasvan)意指太陽神。益世瓦庫(Ikṣvāku)是摩奴(Manu)之子,也是剎帝利太陽王朝的著名祖先。這門瑜伽(Yoga)被稱為不朽,因為透過它所能達到的結果或果實,即解脫(Moksha),是不朽的。如果統治者們擁有我在前兩篇論述中所教導的瑜伽知識,他們就能保護婆羅門,並以正義治理他們的王國。因此,我在演化之初便將這門瑜伽傳授給太陽神。
Vivasvan means the sun. Ikshvaku was the son of Manu. Ikshvaku was the reputed ancestor of the solar dynasty of Kshatriyas.This Yoga is said to be imperishable because the result or fruit? i.e.? Moksha? that can be attained through it is imperishable.If the rulers of dominions possess a knowledge of the Yoga taught by Me in the preceding two discourses? they can protect the Brahmanas and rule their kingdom with justice. So I taught this Yoga to the Sungod in the beginning of evolution.
