मांसपरिवर्जन-प्रशंसा (Praise of Abstention from Meat) / Ethics of Ahiṃsā in Diet and Rite
न्यायलब्धं प्रदातव्यं द्विजातिभ्योन्नमुत्तमम् स्वाध्यायं समुपेते भ्य: प्रह्ष्टेनान्तरात्मना
yudhiṣṭhira uvāca | nyāyalabdhaṃ pradātavyaṃ dvijātibhyo 'nnam uttamam | svādhyāyaṃ samupetebhyaḥ prahṛṣṭenāntarātmanā ||
玉提施提罗说道：应当以正当之道所得之财，向“二生者”（dvija）布施最上等的饮食，尤其是那些专志于“自习诵习”（svādhyāya，研读与诵持吠陀圣典）之人；施与之时，当内心欢喜，自愿而恭敬。布施之所以真正契合达摩，在于其来源清净（正当所得）与其用心清净（欢喜、尊重地施与），并且能扶持那些致力于学问与灵修戒行的人。

Educational Q&A
Charity should be made from righteously acquired resources, offered as the best possible food, and given with sincere inner joy—particularly to those devoted to svādhyāya (sacred study).
In the Anuśāsana Parva’s instruction on dharma and gifts, Yudhiṣṭhira articulates a rule of proper giving: the donor must ensure just acquisition, worthy recipients (especially students of sacred learning), and a pure, glad intention.
