Adhyaya 35 — Madālasa’s Instruction on Purity, Impurity, and Corrective Rites (Śauca and Aśauca)

Sanskrit

तत्कर्तव्यमशङ्केन यन्न गोप्यं महाजने ।

एवमाचरतो वत्स ! पुरुषस्य गृहे सतः ।

धर्मार्थकामसम्प्राप्त्या परत्रेह च शोभनम् ॥

Transliteration

tat kartavyam aśaṅkena yan na gopyaṃ mahājane /

evam ācarato vatsa ! puruṣasya gṛhe sataḥ /

dharmārthakāmasaṃprāptyā paratreha ca śobhanam

Translation

ਜੋ ਕਰਮ ਲੋਕਾਂ ਤੋਂ ਲੁਕਾਉਣ ਦੀ ਲੋੜ ਨਹੀਂ, ਉਹ ਬਿਨਾ ਹਿਚਕ ਦੇ ਕਰਨਾ ਚਾਹੀਦਾ ਹੈ। ਇਸ ਤਰ੍ਹਾਂ ਘਰ-ਗ੍ਰਿਹਸਥੀ ਵਿੱਚ ਰਹਿਣ ਵਾਲੇ ਮਨੁੱਖ ਲਈ ਧਰਮ, ਅਰਥ ਅਤੇ ਕਾਮ ਦੀ ਪ੍ਰਾਪਤੀ ਇੱਥੇ ਤੇ ਪਰਲੋਕ ਦੋਵਾਂ ਵਿੱਚ ਸ਼ੁਭ ਅਤੇ ਮਾਣਯੋਗ ਫਲ ਦਿੰਦੀ ਹੈ, ਪਿਆਰੇ ਬੱਚੇ।

FAQs

A practical ethical test is offered: do what can withstand public scrutiny. Such transparent conduct supports a balanced human life—dharma, prosperity, and rightful enjoyment—leading to honor in both worlds.

Primarily dharma-ācāra teaching; not a pañcalakṣaṇa narrative segment.

‘Not to be hidden’ points to inner alignment: when thought, speech, and action are unified, there is no need for concealment—this unity is itself a form of purity.
