This verse outlines the essential qualifications for undertaking the inquiry into Brahman. It emphasizes the importance of *viveka* (discrimination) and *vairagya* (detachment) as foundational virtues that prepare a seeker for higher spiritual inquiries. The presence of virtues such as *śama* (calmness) and the sincere desire for liberation (*mumukṣutva*) are highlighted as necessary traits. Together, these qualities prepare the aspirant to embark on the deeper philosophical and spiritual exploration that the inquiry into Brahman entails. In the Vedantic tradition, these qualities are often grouped as part of *sādhanā catuṣṭaya*, the fourfold qualification necessary for self-realization.

Need of Sadhana

Summary (in English)

The collection of slokas emphasizes the necessity of sādhanā (spiritual practice) and self-inquiry for liberation, underscoring the rarity of human birth and the value of a knowledgeable guru. Each sloka collectively describes the significance of self-awareness and the internal realization of unity with Brahman (the ultimate reality). The slokas articulate that without ātmaikyabodha (realization of the unity of the Self), liberation remains elusive. Actions purify the mind but discerning knowledge leads to the true comprehension of reality. Divine grace facilitates rare opportunities of human birth, enlightenment, and contact with enlightened beings. It is through rigorous inquiry, detachment (vairāgya), and virtues like discrimination (viveka) that one becomes worthy of realizing Brahman.

सारांश

यह स्लोकों का संग्रह साधना और आत्म-जिज्ञासा की आवश्यकता पर जोर देता है, जहाँ मानव जन्म की दुर्लभता और ज्ञानी गुरु के महत्व को विशेष रूप से रेखांकित किया गया है। प्रत्येक श्लोक सामूहिक रूप से आत्म-साक्षात्कार और ब्रह्म (परम सत्य) के साथ एकता के आंतरिक अनुभव के महत्व को दर्शाता है। यह बताया गया है कि बिना आत्मैक्यबोध (आत्मा की एकता का अनुभव) के मुक्ति प्राप्त नहीं हो सकती है। कार्यों के द्वारा चित्त की शुद्धि होती है, किंतु विवेक द्वारा सत्य का वास्तविक समझ प्राप्त होती है। दिव्य कृपा द्वारा मानव जन्म, ज्ञान और ज्ञानियों के साथ संपर्क जैसी दुर्लभ अवसर उत्पन्न होते हैं। कठोर जिज्ञासा, वैराग्य और विवेक जैसे गुणों के माध्यम से ही कोई व्यक्ति ब्रह्म की प्राप्ति के योग्य बनता है।
