Adhyaya 16 — The Son’s Counsel on Renunciation and the Anasuya–Mandavya Episode: The Suspension of Sunrise and the Power of Pativrata
तेजः परं तेजसैव तपसा च तपस्तथा ।
प्रशाम्यतेऽमरास्तस्माच्छृणुध्वं वचनं मम ॥
tejaḥ paraṃ tejasaiva tapasā ca tapas tathā | praśāmyate 'marās tasmāc chṛṇudhvaṃ vacanaṃ mama ||
အို မသေမရှင်တို့၊ အထက်မြတ်သော တေဇ (tejas) သည် တေဇဖြင့်သာ သက်သာစေတတ်ပြီး၊ တပ (tapas) သည် တပဖြင့်သာ ငြိမ်းစေနိုင်သည်; ထို့ကြောင့် ငါ၏စကားကို နားထောင်ကြလော့။

Problems born of spiritual power cannot be solved by mere force or complaint; they require an equal or higher discipline—self-mastery counters the consequences of mastery.
Didactic dharma/tapas teaching within narrative; not a direct pañcalakṣaṇa classification item.
Tejas and tapas are ‘inner fires’; the verse hints at resonance: only a harmonized inner fire can regulate an unruly fire—an allegory for yogic containment of energies.
