Divine favor and inner strength are said to abide in a person who consistently practices dharma—marked by discernment, reverence for sacred learning and the virtuous, truthfulness, humility in discourse, and generosity.
Śakra (Indra) is speaking in a didactic context of the Śānti Parva, describing the qualities of a righteous person and declaring that he ‘dwells’ with such a person—i.e., that divine support accompanies sustained ethical conduct.
