Mahabharata — Anushasana Parva, Shloka 23
अत्रेः तपोबलप्रकाशः तथा च्यवनस्य सोमाधिकारः
Atri’s Illumination by Tapas; Cyavana and Soma-Entitlement
शूद्रस्य तु कुलं हन्ति वैश्यस्य पशुबान्धवान् । क्षत्रियस्य श्रियं हन्ति ब्राह्मणस्य सुवर्चसम्
śūdrasya tu kulaṃ hanti vaiśyasya paśu-bāndhavān | kṣatriyasya śriyaṃ hanti brāhmaṇasya suvarcasam ||
এই দোষ শূদ্রের কুলধ্বংস করে, বৈশ্যের গবাদি পশু ও আত্মীয়-বন্ধুদের ক্ষতি করে, ক্ষত্রিয়ের শ্রী-সমৃদ্ধি নষ্ট করে, আর ব্রাহ্মণের সুবর্চস্ (আধ্যাত্মিক তেজ ও সুনাম) বিনষ্ট করে।
भीष्य उवाच
Educational Q&A
That violations of dharmic discipline—especially regarding food and association—are believed to bring ruin, and the form of ruin is described as differing by social role: lineage for a Śūdra, cattle and kin for a Vaiśya, prosperity for a Kṣatriya, and spiritual radiance/reputation for a Brāhmaṇa.
In the Anuśāsana Parva, Bhīṣma is instructing Yudhiṣṭhira on dharma. Here he states a rule-like consequence statement, warning that improper practices connected with eating/impurity lead to specific kinds of loss for different varṇas.
