अध्याय ३३१: नारायणकथा-प्रशंसा तथा नारदस्य श्वेतद्वीप-निवृत्ति एवं बदरी-आगमनम् | Chapter 331: Praise of the Nārāyaṇa Narrative; Nārada’s Return from Śvetadvīpa and Arrival at Badarī
धृत्या शिक्षोदरं रक्षेत् पाणिपादं च चक्षुषा । चक्षु:श्रोत्रे च मनसा मनो वाचं च विद्यया
dhṛtyā śikṣodaraṃ rakṣet pāṇipādaṃ ca cakṣuṣā | cakṣuḥśrotre ca manasā mano vācaṃ ca vidyayā ||
ນາຣະດະກ່າວວ່າ: «ດ້ວຍຄວາມໝັ້ນຄົງ ຄວນຂັບຄຸມທ້ອງແລະແຮງຢາກອາຫານ; ດ້ວຍຄວາມລະວັງ ຄວນປົກປ້ອງມືແລະຕີນຈາກການກະທຳຜິດ. ດ້ວຍໃຈ ຄວນຄຸ້ມຄອງຕາແລະຫູ; ແລະດ້ວຍປັນຍາອັນແທ້ ຄວນຝຶກວິໄນໃຈແລະວາຈາ».
नारद उवाच
Educational Q&A
A graded discipline of the person: firmness restrains appetite, vigilance restrains bodily actions, the mind regulates the senses, and wisdom refines mind and speech—so that conduct aligns with dharma.
In Śānti Parva, Nārada instructs on ethical self-governance, presenting practical inner disciplines as the foundation for righteous living and social harmony.
