vipra kahe, — putra yadi daiva-siddha haya
svataḥ-siddha-jñÄna, tabe Å›iká¹£Ä vyartha haya
vipra kahe - the brÄhmaṇa replied; putra - son; yadi - if; daiva - transcendental; siddha - mystic; haya - were; svataḥ-siddha-jñÄna - self-illuminated perfect knowledge; tabe - at that time; Å›iká¹£Ä - education; vyartha - futile; haya - becomes.
The brÄhmaṇa replied, “If your son is a transcendental mystic boy with self-effulgent perfect knowledge, what is the use of your education?â€
The brÄhmaṇa JagannÄtha MiÅ›ra 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.
