Shloka 77
Adhyāya 199: Karma–Jñāna Causality and the Nirguṇa Brahman
Manu’s Instruction
स्वर्ग उवाच स्वर्ग मां विद्धि राजेन्द्र रूपिणं स्वयमागतम् । अविवादो<स्तु युवयोरुभौ तुल्यफलौ युवाम्
svarga uvāca — svargaṃ māṃ viddhi rājendra rūpiṇaṃ svayam āgatam | avivādo 'stu yuvayor ubhau tulyaphalau yuvām ||
スヴァルガは言った。「王の中の王よ、知れ。我はスヴァルガ（天界）そのもの、身を具してここに来た。汝ら二人の間に争いは要らぬ。汝らは共に同一の果報を等しく分かち合う者である。」
स्वर्ग उवाच
Educational Q&A
The verse teaches impartiality in the distribution of spiritual results: when merit is comparable, there should be no quarrel, and both parties should accept an equal share of the reward. It also elevates non-contention (avivāda) as an ethical ideal.
Heaven (Svarga) appears in a tangible, embodied form and addresses a king, intervening to stop a dispute between two individuals. Svarga declares that both disputants deserve the same outcome and instructs them to avoid conflict.
