यस्तु स्थितः सदाऽध्यात्मे नित्यं सद्भावभावितः । ब्राह्मणो हि महद्भूतं जन्मना सह जायते
yastu sthitaḥ sadā'dhyātme nityaṃ sadbhāvabhāvitaḥ | brāhmaṇo hi mahadbhūtaṃ janmanā saha jāyate
Namun sesiapa yang sentiasa teguh dalam Diri batin (adhyātma), dan setiap masa dibentuk oleh budi yang mulia—brāhmaṇa demikian lahir bersama kebesaran itu sendiri.

FAQs
True stature comes from adhyātma (inner realization) and cultivated goodness, not merely from social identity.
Prabhāsa-kṣetra is the setting; the verse frames inner purity as part of the kṣetra’s dharmic greatness.
A spiritual discipline is implied: abiding in adhyātma and maintaining sadbhāva.
