पराशर उवाच
Educational Q&A
Perform wholesome (śubha) action with a disciplined, balanced intellect, while renouncing the craving for personal pleasure as the reward; such fruitless, equanimous action leads to the eternal goal.
Parāśara is instructing his listener in a didactic passage of the Śānti Parva, explaining the conduct of brahmavādins: they continue to pursue auspicious duties but abandon attachment to सुख (personal enjoyment), thereby attaining the eternal state.
