### SB 1.5.3

> जिज्ञासितं सुसम्पन्नमपि ते महदद्भुतम् ।\
> कृतवान्भारतं यस्त्वं सर्वार्थपरिबृंहितम् ॥३॥

> jijñāsitaṁ susampannam\
> api te mahad-adbhutam\
> kṛtavān bhārataṁ yas tvaṁ\
> sarvārtha-paribṛṁhitam

*jijñāsitam*—fully inquired; *susampannam*—well versed; *api*—in spite of; *te*—your; *mahat-adbhutam*—great and wonderful; *kṛtavān*—prepared; *bhāratam*—the *Mahābhārata*; *yaḥ tvam*—what you have done; *sarva-artha*—including all sequences; *paribṛṁhitam*—elaborately explained.

**Your inquiries were full and your studies were also well fulfilled, and there is no doubt that you have prepared a great and wonderful work, the Mahābhārata, which is full of all kinds of Vedic sequences elaborately explained.**

The despondency of Vyāsadeva was certainly not due to his lack of sufficient knowledge because as a student he had fully inquired about the Vedic literatures, as a result of which the Mahābhārata is compiled with full explanation of the Vedas.
