Translation
When Kapila, who could show her the ultimate goal of the Absolute Truth, was sitting leisurely before her, Devahūti remembered the words Brahmā had spoken to her, and she therefore began to question Kapila as follows.
Translation (Visvanatha Cakravarti Thakura)
Devahūti, remembering the words of Brahmā, spoke to her son who was seated beyond all actions, and who could show the conclusion of the path of knowledge.
Kapila could show the end of the path of truth. Brahmā had said “The Lord has entered your womb.” (SB 3.24.18)
