Gods sought Brahma's guidance, for their salvation.
He uttered the syllable - Da.
Dewas recognized their shortcomings - and understood the cryptic, as Damyata.
Humans sought guidance from their Creator, for salvation.
And he uttered the same cryptic - Da
It was understood as Datta - to give, to let go.
Demons too sought Brahma's counsel, for salvation. Same cryptic was uttered.
Demons understood it, as Daya - mercy, compassion.
This narrative features in the Great Jungle Upanishad.
- Shri Chandrashekarendra Saraswati, Kanchi
