अव्यक्त-प्रबोधः (Awakening to the Unmanifest): The 25th and 26th Principles and Eligibility for Brahma-vidyā
यथा यथा हि सद्वृत्तमालम्बन्तीतरे जना: । तथा तथा सुख प्राप्य प्रेत्य चेह च मोदते,इतर जातीय मनुष्य भी जैसे-जैसे सदाचारका आश्रय लेते हैं, वैसे-ही-वैसे सुख पाकर इहलोक और परलोकमें भी आनन्द भोगते हैं
yathā yathā hi sadvṛttam ālambantī tare janāḥ | tathā tathā sukhaṃ prāpya pretya ceha ca modate ||
パラーシャラは言った。「人々が善き行いに依りどころを求めるその度合いに応じて、まさにその度合いだけ幸福を得る。そしてそれを得た者は、この世においても、死後の彼の世においても歓喜する。」
पराशर उवाच
Happiness is proportional to one’s commitment to sadvṛtta (virtuous conduct): the more one relies on ethical living, the more one enjoys well-being both in this life and in the afterlife.
In Śānti Parva’s didactic setting, the sage Parāśara is instructing his listener(s) on the fruits of dharma, emphasizing that moral discipline yields joy in both worldly and post-mortem states.
