The Origin of Gold and the Merit of Gifting
न वो<स्ति कुत्सितं किंचिदंगेष्वालक्ष्यतेडनघा: । पुण्या: पवित्रा: सुभगा ममादेशं प्रयच्छथ
na vo 'sti kutsitaṁ kiñcid aṅgeṣv ālakṣyate 'naghāḥ | puṇyāḥ pavitrāḥ subhagā mama ādeśaṁ prayacchatha ||
ಓ ಅನಘರೇ! ನಿಮ್ಮ ಅಂಗಗಳಲ್ಲಿ ನನಗೆ ಯಾವುದೂ ಕುತ್ತ್ಸಿತವಾಗಿ ಕಾಣುವುದಿಲ್ಲ. ನೀವು ಪುಣ್ಯವಂತರು, ಪವಿತ್ರರು, ಸುಭಾಗ್ಯಶಾಲಿಗಳು; ಆದ್ದರಿಂದ ನನ್ನ ಆಜ್ಞೆಯನ್ನು ಸ್ವೀಕರಿಸಿ ನೆರವೇರಿಸಿ.

Educational Q&A
Moral worth is recognized through purity of conduct and auspicious qualities; those who are blameless and virtuous are fit to receive and carry out righteous instruction.
Bhishma addresses a group respectfully as “blameless,” affirms that he sees no fault in them, praises their purity and merit, and then asks them to comply with or carry out his directive.
