Shloka 96
युधिछिर उवाच स्वधर्मे स्थिरता स्थैर्य धेर्यमिन्द्रियनिग्रह: । स्नान मनोमलत्यागो दान वै भूतरक्षणम्
yudhiṣṭhira uvāca svadharme sthiratā sthairyaṃ dhairyam indriyanigrahaḥ | snānaṃ manomalatyāgo dānaṃ vai bhūtarakṣaṇam ||
قال يودهيشثيرا: «الثبات (sthairya) هو الاستقرار في واجب المرء الخاص (svadharma). والجلَد (dhairya) هو كبحُ الحواس. و“الاغتسال” (snāna) هو طرحُ أدرانِ النفس من الذهن. و“العطاء” (dāna) هو حقًّا حمايةُ الكائنات الحيّة».
युधिछिर उवाच
Educational Q&A
Righteous life is defined not by a single act but by a disciplined character: fidelity to one’s own duty, inner steadiness, courage, sensory restraint, outer and inner purity, generosity, and compassionate protection of all beings.
In the Vana Parva context, Yudhiṣṭhira articulates a concise list of virtues that constitute dharmic conduct, presenting an ethical standard grounded in self-mastery, purification, and benevolence.
