シャクラは言った。「彼らは貧しき者、身寄りなき者、老いた者、弱き者、病める者、そして女たちに対して絶えず慈悲を示し、また分かち合いの行いを常に是認し奨励した—彼らを支えるために食と衣を施したのである。」

Educational Q&A
Dharma is expressed through active compassion and regular sharing: protecting and supporting vulnerable people—destitute, helpless, aged, weak, sick, and women—by giving necessities like food and clothing, and by approving such conduct as a social norm.
Indra (Śakra) describes the exemplary behavior of certain people (implicitly righteous householders/rulers): they habitually practiced mercy and endorsed charitable distribution, emphasizing welfare of those most in need.
