Shloka 45
धर्मनिन्दा–धर्मोपासनाफलम् तथा साध्वाचारलक्षणम्
Fruits of Disparaging vs. Observing Dharma; Marks of Good Conduct
ज्ञानविज्ञानसम्पन्न: संस्कृतो वेदपारग: । विप्रो भवति धर्मात्मा क्षत्रिय: स्वेन कर्मणा
jñānavijñānasampannaḥ saṃskṛto vedapāragaḥ | vipro bhavati dharmātmā kṣatriyaḥ svena karmaṇā ||
シュリー・マヘーシュヴァラは言った。「自らの正しい行いによって、ダルマに魂を置くクシャトリヤは—後の生において—バラモンとなる。すなわち、知と実現された理解に満ち、正しいサンスカーラ（浄化・通過儀礼）によって磨かれ、ヴェーダに通暁する者となる。」
श्रीमहेश्वर उवाच
Educational Q&A
The verse teaches that spiritual and social excellence is ethically earned: a righteous kṣatriya, through his own dharmic actions, can attain the status and qualities of a learned brāhmaṇa in a subsequent birth—marked by jñāna, vijñāna, refinement (saṃskāra), and Vedic mastery.
Śrī Maheśvara is instructing about the fruit of conduct and duty: he describes how the performance of one’s proper work with dharma transforms one’s future birth and capacities, emphasizing karma as the causal basis for higher learning and spiritual refinement.
