जपयोगयोः तुल्यफलनिर्णयः
Adhyāya 193: Adjudication of the Comparable Fruits of Japa and Yoga
न लोभ: परदारेषु स्वदारनिरतो जन: । नान्योन्यं बध्यते तत्र द्रव्येषु च न विस्मय: । परो ह्ुधर्मो नैवास्ति संदेहो नापि जायते
bharadvāja uvāca | na lobhaḥ paradāreṣu svadāra-nirato janaḥ | nānyonyaṃ badhyate tatra dravyeṣu ca na vismayaḥ | paro hy adharmo naivāsti saṃdeho nāpi jāyate |
Bharadvāja dijo: En ese reino no hay lujuria por la esposa ajena; los hombres permanecen entregados a sus propios cónyuges. Por causa de la riqueza no se matan unos a otros, ni ponen a nadie en cautiverio. No se turban ante asombros extraordinarios, pues allí la falta de dharma no tiene lugar alguno. Tampoco nace la duda en la mente de nadie: tal es el orden firme del dharma en ese ámbito.
भरद्वाज उवाच
Educational Q&A
The verse describes an ideal dharmic society: fidelity in relationships, absence of greed-driven violence, no oppression through captivity, and a mental culture free from suspicion and moral transgression.
Bharadvāja is portraying the ethical condition of a particular realm or community, emphasizing how social harmony arises when desire, greed, and adharma are absent and people remain steady in rightful conduct.
