Brāhmaṇa-pūjā, Haviḥ-dāna, and the Vāsudeva–Pṛthivī Saṃvāda
Chapter 34
गुरुप्रसादे स्वाध्याये यतन्तो ये स्थिरव्रता: । शुश्रूषवो5नसूयन्तस्तान् नमस्यामि यादव
guruprasāde svādhyāye yatanto ye sthiravratāḥ | śuśrūṣavo 'nasūyantas tān namasyāmi yādava, yadukulatilaka ||
Dijo Nārada: «Oh Yādava, ornamento de la estirpe de los Yadu: me inclino ante quienes son firmes en sus votos, que se esfuerzan sin cesar por alcanzar la gracia del maestro y por entregarse al svādhyāya (estudio de sí), cuyos votos no se quiebran, que sirven con devoción a los mayores y a los maestros, y que están libres de censura y de envidia hacia los demás.»
नारद उवाच
Educational Q&A
True dharmic character is marked by disciplined learning (svādhyāya), steady vows (sthiravrata), devoted service to teachers and elders (śuśrūṣā), and freedom from envy or fault-finding (anasūyā). Such conduct is worthy of reverence.
Nārada addresses Kṛṣṇa (as Yādava, yadukulatilaka) and offers salutations to an ideal class of practitioners—those who strive to please their guru, persist in study, serve respectfully, and refrain from criticizing others—thereby praising a model of ethical and spiritual discipline.
