Brāhmaṇa-pūjā, Haviḥ-dāna, and the Vāsudeva–Pṛthivī Saṃvāda
Chapter 34
जिनके कार्योमें धर्म, अर्थ और काम तीनोंका निर्वाह होता है, किसी एककी भी हानि नहीं होने पाती तथा जो सदा शिष्टाचारमें ही संलग्न रहते हैं, उनको मैं नमस्कार करता हूँ
yeṣāṁ kāryeṣu dharma-artha-kāmāḥ trayo 'pi samyak pravartante, na caikasya api hāniḥ sambhavati, ye ca sadā śiṣṭācāre eva saṁlagnāḥ, tān ahaṁ namasyāmi.
Wika ni Nārada: Yumuyuko ako sa mga yaong sa kanilang mga gawain ay pinananatili ang tatlong layunin ng buhay—dharma, artha, at kāma—nang walang napapahamak o napapabayaan ni isa man; at sa mga laging nakatuon sa marangal na asal at sa mga pamantayan ng mga banal at matuwid.

Educational Q&A
True excellence in action lies in balancing the three puruṣārthas—dharma, artha, and kāma—so that none is sacrificed, and in consistently adhering to śiṣṭācāra (the refined conduct upheld by the virtuous).
Nārada offers a reverential statement, praising and saluting those exemplary people whose actions harmonize moral duty, practical welfare, and legitimate desire, while remaining steadfast in proper, cultured behavior.
