Sanatsujāta on Vedic Learning, Truth (Satya), and the Discipline of Dama–Tyāga–Apramāda
समा गुरौ यथा वृत्तिर्गुरुपत्न्यां तथा55चरेत् । तत्युत्रे च तथा कुर्वन् द्वितीय: पाद उच्यते
samā gurau yathā vṛttir guru-patnyāṃ tathā caret | tat-putre ca tathā kurvan dvitīyaḥ pāda ucyate ||
Dapat mag-asal sa asawa ng guro nang gaya rin ng pag-asal sa mismong guro. Gayundin ang gawin sa anak na lalaki ng guro—ito ang ipinahahayag na ikalawang ‘hakbang’ (pāda) ng wastong pag-uugali. Binibigyang-diin ng aral ang disiplinadong paggalang at pagpipigil na moral sa loob ng sambahayan ng guru bilang saligan ng dharma.

Educational Q&A
Maintain the same reverent, disciplined conduct toward the guru’s wife as toward the guru, and extend similar respectful propriety to the guru’s son; this is presented as a defined step in ethical training.
Sanatsujata is instructing (within the Udyoga Parva’s counsel-setting) on standards of dharmic behavior, outlining specific rules of conduct connected to the guru’s household as part of a structured ethical teaching.
