Śiva-darśana through Tapas and Stuti (उपमन्यु–कृष्ण संवादः)
द्विजेष्वकोपं पितृतः प्रसाद शतं सुतानां परमं च भोगम् । कुले प्रीतिं मातृतश्न प्रसाद॑ शमप्राप्तिं प्रवृणे चापि दाक्ष्यम्
dvijeṣv akopaṁ pitṛtaḥ prasādaṁ śataṁ sutānāṁ paramaṁ ca bhogam | kule prītiṁ mātṛtaś ca prasādaṁ śamaprāptiṁ pravṛttau cāpi dākṣyam ||
奎师那说道:“愿我永不对二次生者(婆罗门)怀嗔。愿我父亲悦纳于我。愿我得百子,且至上的享乐常在手边。愿我族中和睦亲爱长存;愿我母亲亦心生欢喜。愿我得内心寂静,并于一切事业皆具巧能——此八愿,皆我所求。”
श्रीकृष्ण उवाच
The verse frames an ethical ideal of balanced life: restraint toward revered social and spiritual authorities (non-anger toward dvijas), cultivation of parental goodwill, maintenance of harmony within the lineage, and the pursuit of prosperity only alongside inner peace and practical competence. It presents dharma as integrating social conduct, family responsibilities, and personal self-mastery.
Śrīkṛṣṇa is presented as articulating a set of desired boons—eight aims—covering respectful conduct toward brāhmaṇas, the satisfaction of father and mother, the blessing of many sons, access to excellent enjoyments, familial concord, attainment of calmness, and skill in all endeavors.
