Shloka 27
अरण्यवृत्ति-वैराग्योपदेशः | Forest Discipline and the Program of Non-Attachment
तेषु नित्यमसक्तश्न त्यक्तसर्वेन्द्रियक्रिय: । सुपरित्यक्तसंकल्प: सुनिर्णिक्तात्मकल्मष:
teṣu nityam asaktaḥ syan tyakta-sarvendriya-kriyaḥ | suparityakta-saṅkalpaḥ sunirṇiktātma-kalmaṣaḥ ||
قال يودهيشثيرا: «حتى وأنا قائم بتلك الواجبات سأبقى دائمًا غير متعلّق. وبالانصراف عن أعمال الحواس كلها، أجعل الذهن خاليًا من العزم القهري، وأغسل كل دنسٍ عن الذات الباطنة.»
युधिछिर उवाच
Educational Q&A
One should perform necessary duties without attachment, restrain the senses, relinquish desire-driven mental constructions (saṅkalpa), and purify the inner self—linking ethical action with inner renunciation.
In Śānti Parva’s instruction-oriented setting, Yudhiṣṭhira articulates his resolve for a disciplined life: even amid action, he aims for non-attachment, sensory withdrawal, and inner cleansing as the basis for righteous living.
