दृष्ट्वा प्रियाणि श्रुत्वा वा हर्षवद्यत्प्रदीयते । हर्षदानमिति प्रोक्तं दानं तद्धर्मचिंतकैः
dṛṣṭvā priyāṇi śrutvā vā harṣavadyatpradīyate | harṣadānamiti proktaṃ dānaṃ taddharmaciṃtakaiḥ
جو عطیہ کسی پسندیدہ چیز کو دیکھ کر یا سن کر خوشی کے ساتھ پیش کیا جائے، اسے دھرم پر غور کرنے والوں نے ‘ہرش دان’ (خوشی کا دان) کہا ہے۔
Sūta (Lomaharṣaṇa) (deduced)
Scene: After hearing sacred recitation or seeing a deity/saint, a devotee smiles and offers gifts with bright, open posture; surrounding devotees sing; lamps and flowers create a festive aura.
Emotional uplift can inspire giving; dharma-tradition recognizes joy as a distinct motive shaping the nature of charity.
No tīrtha is mentioned; this is a general dharma teaching.
None directly; it defines a category of dāna characterized by gladness and pleasant stimulus.
