Shloka 66
Rudra-Śiva: Names, Two Natures, and the Logic of Epithets (रुद्रनाम-बहुरूपत्व-प्रकरणम्)
त्रैविद्यो ब्राह्मणो विद्वानू न चाध्ययनजीवक: । त्रिकर्मा त्रिपरिक्रान्तो मैत्र एष स्मृतो द्विज:
traividyo brāhmaṇo vidvān na cādhyayanajīvakaḥ | trikarmā triparikrānto maitra eṣa smṛto dvijaḥ ||
マハーデーヴァは言った。人が真にブラーフマナ—すなわち二生者（dvija）—として記憶されるのは、三つのヴェーダに通じた学識者であり、教授や誦読を生業とせず、三つの聖なる務め（祭祀・布施・正しい行い）を常に修し、三つの内なる敵（欲・怒り・貪り）を超え、あらゆる生きものに対して友愛の心を保つときである。

Educational Q&A
True brahminhood is characterized by Vedic learning joined to integrity: not commercializing sacred study, performing key dharmic duties (sacrifice, charity, righteous conduct), conquering desire-anger-greed, and cultivating friendliness toward all beings.
In Anuśāsana Parva’s instruction-focused setting, Mahādeva speaks a normative definition of a brāhmaṇa, shifting emphasis from mere social label to ethical and spiritual qualifications.
