Adhyāya 90: Babhruvāhana’s Reception and the Commencement of Yudhiṣṭhira’s Aśvamedha
इत्युक्त्वा तानुपादाय सक्तून् प्रादाद् द्विजातये । ततस्तुष्टो5भवद् विप्रस्तस्य साधोर्महात्मन:
ity uktvā tān upādāya saktūn prādād dvijātaye | tataḥ tuṣṭo 'bhavad vipras tasya sādhur mahātmanaḥ ||
និយាយដូច្នេះហើយ គាត់បានយកសត្តូទាំងនោះ ហើយប្រគេនទៅដល់ភ្ញៀវទ្វិជៈ (អ្នកកើតពីរដង)។ បន្ទាប់មក ព្រះព្រាហ្មណ៍ក៏មានចិត្តរីករាយ—ពេញចិត្តយ៉ាងខ្លាំងចំពោះបុរសសុចរិត មានព្រលឹងធំធេងនោះ។

Educational Q&A
True dharma is shown through atithi-satkara (honouring a guest) and dāna (giving), especially when one gives from one’s own limited share without hesitation; such selfless conduct earns genuine approval and moral merit.
After speaking, the person takes the saktū (simple food) and gives it to the twice-born guest. Seeing this act of generosity and virtue, the Brahmin becomes pleased and satisfied with that noble, righteous man.
