अव्यक्त-मानस-सृष्टिवादः
Doctrine of Creation from the Unmanifest ‘Mānasa’
एतां बुद्धि समास्थाय सुखमास्ते गुणान्वित: । सर्वान् कामान् जुगुप्सेत कामान् कुर्वीत पृष्ठत:
etāṁ buddhiṁ samāsthāya sukham āste guṇānvitaḥ | sarvān kāmān jugupset kāmān kurvīta pṛṣṭhataḥ ||
ដោយឈរលើបញ្ញានេះ មនុស្សដែលមានគុណធម៌នៃការលះបង់ រស់នៅដោយសុខសាន្ត។ ដូច្នេះ គួរឲ្យខ្ពើមចំពោះសេចក្តីសប្បាយនៃអារម្មណ៍ទាំងអស់ ហើយទុកបំណងឲ្យនៅពីក្រោយខ្លួន—បែរចេញពីវា មិនដើរតាមវាទេ។
ब्राह्मण उवाच
Happiness and steadiness arise from adopting right discernment (buddhi) and cultivating detachment: one should actively avoid sense-driven desires and turn away from them, treating them as something to be left behind.
In the Shanti Parva’s instructional discourse, a Brahmana speaker continues ethical teaching, advising that a person who embraces this insight lives peacefully by rejecting and distancing oneself from desires and pleasures.
