Pratyakṣa–Āgama–Ācāra: Doubt, Proof, and the Practice of Dharma (प्रत्यक्ष–आगम–आचारविचारः)
क्षान्तो दान्तो जितक्रोधो धर्मभूतो विहिंसक: । धर्मे रतमना नित्यं नरो धर्मेण युज्यते,क्षमाशील, जितेन्द्रिय, क्रोधविजयी, धर्मनिष्ठ, अहिंसक और सदा धर्मपरायण मनुष्य ही धर्मके फलका भागी होता है
kṣānto dānto jitakrodho dharmabhūto vihiṃsakaḥ | dharme ratamanā nityaṃ naro dharmeṇa yujyate ||
မဟေရှ္ဝရက မိန့်တော်မူသည်—သည်းခံတတ်၍ ကိုယ်ကိုထိန်းချုပ်တတ်ကာ ဒေါသကိုအနိုင်ယူသူ၊ ဓမ္မကို သဘာဝအဖြစ်ထား၍ အဟింసာကိုလိုက်နာသူ၊ စိတ်ကို အမြဲဓမ္မ၌ တည်စေသူသည် ဓမ္မနှင့် အမှန်တကယ် ပေါင်းစည်းပြီး ၎င်း၏အကျိုးကို ခံစားထိုက်သူ ဖြစ်၏။
श्रीमहेश्वर उवाच
Dharma is not merely a rule to follow but a character to embody: patience (kṣamā), self-restraint (dama), conquest of anger, and non-violence. One who keeps the mind steadily devoted to dharma becomes truly established in it and therefore gains its rightful fruits.
Śrī Maheśvara is speaking as a spiritual authority, defining the qualities of a genuinely dharmic person. The verse functions as ethical instruction, identifying inner virtues—especially control of anger and commitment to non-harm—as the basis for attaining the results of dharma.
