Janaka’s Renunciation Questioned; Discourse on Dāna and Detachment
Devanagari script
त॑ ददर्श प्रिया भार्या भैक्ष्यवृत्तिमकिंचनम् । धानामुष्टिमुपासीनं निरीहं गतमत्सरम्
Transliteration
taṁ dadarśa priyā bhāryā bhaikṣya-vṛttim akiñcanam | dhānā-muṣṭim upāsīnaṁ nirīhaṁ gata-matsaram ||
Translation
そのとき、愛する妻は彼の姿を目にした――施しにより命をつなぎ、何ひとつ所有せず、炒った穀粒をひと握りだけ携えて座し、落ち着きなく求めあがく心を離れ、嫉みをも捨て去っていた。そこには、足るを知ることと内なる浄化という倫理の理想が示される。離欲は誇示ではなく、質素と節制、そして他者への競い心からの自由として現れていた。
