Brahmana said That which you ask me, O Krishna, about the religion of Moksha (Emancipation), led by your compassion for all creatures, that, indeed, which destroys all delusion, O you gifted with Supreme power, I shall now tell you duly, O destroyer of Madhu. Do you listen with rapt attention as I discourse to you, O Madhava.
ब्राह्मण उवाच मोक्षधर्मं समाश्रित्य कृष्ण यन्मामपृच्छथाः। भूतानामनुकम्पार्थं यत्मोहच्छेदनं विभो॥ तत् नेऽहं सम्प्रवक्ष्यामि यथावन्मधुसूदन। शृणुष्वावहितो भूत्वा गदतो मम माधव॥
