CC Ādi 14.88
vipra kahe, — putra yadi daiva-siddha haya
svataḥ-siddha-jñāna, tabe śikṣā vyartha haya
svataḥ-siddha-jñāna, tabe śikṣā vyartha haya
Word for word:
Translation:
The brāhmaṇa replied, “If your son is a transcendental mystic boy with self-effulgent perfect knowledge, what is the use of your education?”
Purport:
The brāhmaṇa Jagannātha Miśra saw in his dream told him that his son was not an ordinary human being. If He were a transcendental person, He would have self-effulgent knowledge, and thus there would be no need to educate Him.
