आचारप्रशंसा
Praise of Ācāra as the Basis of Longevity, Fame, and Prosperity
अन्यद् रथ्यासु देवानामर्चायामन्यदेव हि । नरश्रेष्ठ) दूसरेके पहने हुए कपड़े नहीं पहनने चाहिये। जिसकी कोर फट गयी हो
anyad rathyāsu devānām arcāyām anyad eva hi |
ພີດສະມະສອນວິໄນເລື່ອງເຄື່ອງນຸ່ງ: «ບໍ່ຄວນນຸ່ງຜ້າທີ່ຄົນອື່ນເຄີຍນຸ່ງແລ້ວ, ແລະຜ້າທີ່ຂອບຂາດກໍບໍ່ຄວນນຸ່ງ. ຄວນມີຜ້າອີກຜືນໜຶ່ງສຳລັບນອນ, ອີກຜືນໜຶ່ງສຳລັບເດີນທາງຕາມຖະໜົນ, ແລະອີກຜືນໜຶ່ງເປັນພິເສດສຳລັບບູຊາເທວະ. ຈຸດໝາຍທາງຈິດທຳແມ່ນຄວາມສະອາດ, ຄວາມສົມຄວນ ແລະຄວາມເຄົາລົບ: ຜ້າທີ່ໃຊ້ໃນການອອກໄປທົ່ວໄປ ບໍ່ຄວນນຳໄປໃຊ້ໃນພິທີສັກສິດ».
भीष्म उवाच
Educational Q&A
Maintain propriety and ritual purity by keeping separate garments for different purposes—public use versus divine worship—so that sacred acts are performed with special cleanliness and reverence.
In the Anushasana Parva, Bhishma is instructing on dharma and right conduct; here he gives practical household guidance about disciplined living, specifically the appropriate use of clothing in daily life and in worship.
