Śakra (Indra)

Educational Q&A

The verse praises the ethical discipline of the dhīra (steadfast person): one should not begrudge others out of resentment, nor suffer inner torment when others prosper. Freedom from envy is presented as a mark of true steadiness and virtue.

Śakra (Indra) is describing the conduct and inner disposition of noble, self-possessed people: they do not engage in mutual begrudging, and they remain untroubled by the success of others—highlighting an ideal temperament within the Shanti Parva’s moral instruction.
