Shloka 15

नास्ति वै जातित:ः शत्रु: पुरुषस्य विशाम्पते । येन साधारणी वृत्ति: स शत्रुर्नेतरो जन:

nāsti vai jātitaḥ śatruḥ puruṣasya viśāmpate | yena sādhāraṇī vṛttiḥ sa śatrur netaro janaḥ ||

ဒုရ္ယောဓနက ဆိုသည်– «ပြည်သူတို့၏ အရှင်မင်းမြတ်၊ လူတစ်ယောက်၌ မွေးဖွားခြင်းကြောင့်သာ ရန်သူမရှိ။ မိမိနှင့် အသက်မွေးဝမ်းကျောင်း၊ လုပ်ငန်းနယ်ပယ် တူညီသူကသာ ရန်သူဖြစ်လာတတ်၏—တူညီသောနည်းလမ်းဖြင့် အသက်မွေးသူတို့သည် ပြိုင်ဆိုင်၍ မနာလိုစိတ်ကြောင့် အချင်းချင်း ရန်သူဖြစ်ကြသည်။ အခြားသူတို့မဟုတ်။»

Duryodhana

Educational Q&A

Enmity is not innate or determined by birth; it often arises from competition over the same livelihood or social space, where jealousy and rivalry turn peers into adversaries.

In the Sabha Parva context, Duryodhana is speaking in a royal setting, reflecting on the causes of hostility and rivalry—implicitly framing political and personal conflict as driven by competitive interests rather than mere lineage.
