Shloka 11
क्षत्रधर्मरत: पार्थ पितृन् देवांश्व तर्पय । श्रेयसा योक्ष्यसे चैव व्येतु ते मानसो ज्वर:
kṣatradharmarataḥ pārtha pitṝn devāṁś ca tarpayā | śreyasā yokṣyase caiva vyetu te mānaso jvaraḥ ||
ヴァイシャンパーヤナは言った。「パールタよ、クシャトリヤのダルマに堅く立ち、しかるべき儀礼と供物によって祖霊（ピトリ）と神々を満たせ。汝は必ず真の利益を得るであろう。ゆえに心の憂いの熱を鎮めよ。」

Educational Q&A
Steadfastness in one’s ordained duty (kṣatra-dharma) and faithful performance of obligations to gods and ancestors leads to śreyas (true welfare) and calms inner turmoil; ethical action and ritual responsibility are presented as remedies for grief and anxiety.
Vaiśampāyana addresses Pārtha (Arjuna), urging him to remain committed to the warrior’s code and to perform acts of propitiation for the devas and Pitṛs, assuring him of auspicious outcomes and encouraging him to let go of mental distress.
