ये वर्जयन्ति परुषं परद्रोहं च मानवा: । सर्वभूतसमा दान्तास्ते नरा: स्वर्गगामिन:
ye varjayanti paruṣaṃ paradrohaṃ ca mānavāḥ | sarvabhūtasamā dāntās te narāḥ svargagāminaḥ ||
摩醯湿伐罗说道：凡能远离粗暴与背叛他人，自持克己，并以平等心观一切众生者，此等之人得至天界。

Educational Q&A
The core teaching is that dharmic conduct includes avoiding harshness (especially in speech and behavior) and avoiding betrayal or harm to others; cultivating self-restraint and equal regard for all beings leads to meritorious results, described here as attaining heaven.
In Anuśāsana Parva’s instruction-focused setting, Śrī Maheśvara speaks a moral injunction, praising those who practice restraint, impartiality toward all beings, and loyalty/non-treachery, and declaring their auspicious destiny.
