Pratyakṣa–Āgama–Ācāra: Doubt, Proof, and the Practice of Dharma (प्रत्यक्ष–आगम–आचारविचारः)
वीराध्वानगतो नित्यं वीरासनरतस्तथा । वीरस्थायी च सततं स वीरगतिमाप्नुयात्
vīrādhvāna-gato nityaṃ vīrāsana-rataḥ tathā | vīra-sthāyī ca satataṃ sa vīra-gatim āpnuyāt ||
圣者摩醯湿伐罗说道:“恒常行于英雄之道者,勤修勇士之坐法与戒行,且时时坚住于英雄之志——此人将得英雄之归趣。”
श्रीमहेश्वर उवाच
Heroism is presented as a sustained ethical discipline: consistently choosing the courageous path, maintaining firm posture and self-control, and remaining unwavering in resolve leads one to a ‘heroic destiny’ (vīra-gati), i.e., an exalted end befitting such conduct.
Maheśvara is speaking in an instructive mode, defining the marks of a ‘vīra’ (heroic person) and stating the फल (result): the one who lives continually in valor, disciplined bearing, and steadfastness attains vīra-gati.
