Srimad-Bhagavatam: Canto 10 - Chapter 1 - Verse 10


Sanskrit:

श्वेतद्वीपं गतवति त्वयि द्रष्टुं तदीश्वरम् ।ब्रह्मवाद: सुसंवृत्त: श्रुतयो यत्र शेरते ।तत्र हायमभूत् प्रश्न‍स्त्वं मां यमनुपृच्छसि ॥ १० ॥

ITRANS:

śvetadvīpaṁ gatavatitvayi draṣṭuṁ tad-īśvarambrahma-vādaḥ su-saṁvṛttaḥśrutayo yatra śeratetatra hāyam abhūt praśnastvaṁ māṁ yam anupṛcchasi

Translation:

At that time you happened to be visiting the Lord on Śvetadvīpa — that Supreme Lord in whom the Vedas lie down to rest during the period of universal annihilation. A lively discussion arose among the sages on Janaloka as to the nature of the Supreme Absolute Truth. Indeed, the same question arose then that you are asking Me now.
