Shloka 11
कर्म–ज्ञान–दैव–स्वभावविचारः
Inquiry into Karma, Knowledge, Fate, and Nature
कल्याणं कुरुते बाढं पापमस्मिन्न विद्यते । न प्रीयते परानर्थस्तस्मात् सर्वत्र पूजित:
kalyāṇaṃ kurute bāḍhaṃ pāpam asmin na vidyate | na prīyate parānarthas tasmāt sarvatra pūjitaḥ ||
ಅವನು ಉದಾರ ಹೃದಯದಿಂದ ಎಲ್ಲರ ಕಲ್ಯಾಣವನ್ನು ಮಾಡುತ್ತಾನೆ; ಅವನಲ್ಲಿ ಪಾಪದ ಲೇಶವೂ ಇಲ್ಲ. ಇತರರ ಅನರ್ಥವನ್ನು ನೋಡಿ ಅವನು ಸಂತೋಷಪಡುವುದಿಲ್ಲ; ಆದ್ದರಿಂದ ಅವನು ಎಲ್ಲೆಡೆ ಪೂಜಿತನು.
वायुदेव उवाच
Educational Q&A
True virtue is shown by active benevolence and inner purity: one should work earnestly for others’ welfare, remain free from sinful intent, and never feel joy at another person’s suffering; such a person naturally earns respect everywhere.
Vāyudeva is describing the qualities of a commendable person: he consistently promotes universal welfare, is free from sin, and does not delight in others’ misfortune—explaining why such a person is honored in all places.
