आचारप्रशंसा
Praise of Ācāra as the Basis of Longevity, Fame, and Prosperity
चतुष्पथ्थं न सेवेत उभे संध्ये तथैव च । दोपहरमें, रातमें, विशेषत:ः आधी रातके समय और दोनों संध्याओंके समय कभी चौराहोंपर न रहे ।।
bhīṣma uvāca | catuṣpathaṃ na seveta ubhe sandhye tathaiva ca | upānahau ca vastraṃ ca dhṛtam anyair na dhārayet |
ພີສະມະ ກ່າວວ່າ: ບໍ່ຄວນໄປຄົບຄືນຫຼືຢູ່ບ່ອນທາງແຍກສີ່ແຍກ, ໂດຍສະເພາະໃນເວລາສອງສັນທະຍາ (ຕອນຮຸ່ງແລະຕອນແລງ). ບໍ່ຄວນນຸ່ງເສື້ອຜ້າ ຫຼືໃສ່ເກີບທີ່ຄົນອື່ນເຄີຍນຸ່ງໃສ່ແລ້ວ. ນີ້ແມ່ນວິໄນແຫ່ງຄວາມບໍລິສຸດແລະການສຳລວມ, ເພື່ອປົກປ້ອງຄວາມປະພຶດ ແລະໜຸນສົ່ງພຣະຫມະຈັນຍາ (brahmacarya).
भीष्म उवाच
Bhishma teaches practical disciplines of purity and restraint: avoid morally and ritually vulnerable places/times (like crossroads at twilight) and avoid using items worn by others, as part of maintaining śauca (cleanliness) and brahmacarya (self-control).
In Anushasana Parva, Bhishma is instructing Yudhishthira on dharma. This verse is part of a set of behavioral injunctions (ācāra) describing what a disciplined person should avoid in daily life.
