The Lord Reveals His Fourfold Nature to Garuda

Verse 1 (13.43.1)

मां न देवा न गन्धर्वा नासुरा न च राक्षसाः । विदुस्तत्वेन सत्वस्थं सूक्ष्मात्मानमवस्थितम् ॥

Verse 71 (13.43.71)

एवमुक्त्वा स भगवांस्तत्रैवान्तरधीयत । पश्यतो मे महायोगी जगामात्मगतिर्गतिम् ॥

evamuktvā sa bhagavāṃstatraivāntaradhīyata | paśyato me mahāyogī jagāmātmagatirgatim

Having spoken thus, the blessed Lord vanished on that very spot; while I looked on, the great yogi went to the goal that is his own Self.

Note on the text: The page prints no new speaker heading here. The Blessed Lord's address ends with verse 70 and these verses narrate his departure in the first person (पश्यतो मे), so they belong to Garuda, who is reporting the whole episode to the sages (compare 13-44-1, where the sages thank him).

Verse 72 (13.43.72)

एतदेवंविधं तस्य महिमानं महात्मनः । अच्युतस्याप्रमेयस्य दृष्टवानस्मि यत्पुरा ॥

etadevaṃvidhaṃ tasya mahimānaṃ mahātmanaḥ | acyutasyāprameyasya dṛṣṭavānasmi yatpurā

Such is the greatness of that great-souled, unfailing, immeasurable one, which I saw long ago.

Verse 73 (13.43.73)

एतद्वः सर्वमाख्यातं चेष्टितं तस्य धीमतः । मयाऽनुभूतं प्रत्यक्षं दृष्ट्वा चाद्भुतकर्मणः ॥

etadvaḥ sarvamākhyātaṃ ceṣṭitaṃ tasya dhīmataḥ | mayā'nubhūtaṃ pratyakṣaṃ dṛṣṭvā cādbhutakarmaṇaḥ

All this has been told to you, the doings of that wise one, which I experienced directly, having seen the doer of marvelous deeds.
