जयश्न नियतो राज्ञ: स्वर्गशक्ष तदनन्तरम् । यस्य स्याद् धर्मविद् वाग्मी पुरोधा: शीलवान् शुचि:,जिसके यहाँ धर्मज्ञ, वक्ता, शीलवान् और ईमानदार ब्राह्मण पुरोहित हो, उस राजाको इस लोकमें निश्चय ही विजय प्राप्त होती है और मरनेके बाद उसे स्वर्गलोक मिलता है
jayaśrī-niyato rājñaḥ svargaś ca tad-anantaram | yasya syād dharmavid vāgmī purodhāḥ śīlavān śuciḥ ||
যি ৰজাৰ ওচৰত ধৰ্মজ্ঞ, বাক্পটু, শীলবান আৰু শুচি ব্ৰাহ্মণ পুৰোহিত থাকে, সেই ৰজাৰ এই লোকত বিজয় নিশ্চিত হয় আৰু তাৰ পিছত স্বৰ্গলাভ ঘটে।

Educational Q&A
A ruler’s worldly success and posthumous welfare depend on ethical governance supported by a qualified purohita—one who knows dharma, speaks wisely, lives virtuously, and maintains purity. Right counsel and right conduct convert power into merit.
A Gandharva addresses the principle of ideal kingship, stating that a king who keeps a dharma-knowing, eloquent, virtuous, and pure Brahmin as his priest and adviser gains assured victory in life and reaches heaven after death.
