Adhyāya 60: Dāna vs. Yajña—Royal Giving, Protection, and Karmic Share
कीर्तिर्भवति दानेन तथा5<5रोग्यमहिंसया । द्विजशुश्रूषया राज्यं द्विजत्वं चापि पुष्कलम्
kīrtir bhavati dānena tathārogyam ahiṃsayā | dvijaśuśrūṣayā rājyaṃ dvijatvaṃ cāpi puṣkalam ||
ヴァイシャンパーヤナは言った。「施しによって名声は生じ、また不殺生（アヒンサー）によって健康と安寧が得られる。二度生まれの者（バラモン）に恭しく仕えるなら、王権を得、さらに真のバラモン性（霊的功徳と位階）を豊かに得る。」
वैशम्पायन उवाच
Educational Q&A
The verse links specific virtues to specific fruits: charity yields fame, non-violence yields health, and respectful service to the twice-born—especially Brahmins—yields political sovereignty and abundant spiritual-social standing (dvijatva). It presents a dharmic economy of actions and results.
Vaiśampāyana, as narrator, reports a didactic teaching within the Anuśāsana Parva, where norms of conduct and their rewards are enumerated. The focus here is on how ethical practices support both worldly success (reputation, health, rule) and recognized religious status.
