Sanskrit Original
।।6.45।।नैकजन्मनीत्याह प्रयत्नादिति। जिज्ञासुर्ज्ञात्वा प्रयत्न करोति। एवमनेकजन्मभिः संसिद्धोऽपरोक्षज्ञानी भूत्वा परां गतिं याति। आह च अतीव श्रद्धया युक्तो जिज्ञासुर्विष्णुतत्परः। ज्ञात्वा ध्यात्वा तथा दृष्ट्वा जन्मभिर्बहुभिः पुमान्। विशेन्नारायणं देवं नान्यथा तु कथञ्चन इति नारदीये।
‘Not of a single birth’—it is said that by effort. The inquirer, having known, makes effort. Thus, having been perfected through many births, becoming a direct knower, one attains the supreme goal. And in the Naradiya text: ‘Indeed, the inquirers who are very full of faith and devoted to Vishnu, having known, meditated, and thus seen, after many births the person—distinctly Narayana, the Lord—no other way is there.’
