Shloka 8
विद्यायुक्तो हाविद्यश्न धनवान् दुर्मतिस्तथा । यदि विद्यामुपाश्रित्य नर: सुखमवाप्लुयात्
vidyāyukto hāvidyaśna dhanavān durmatistathā | yadi vidyāmupāśritya naraḥ sukhamavāpluyāt ||
尤提士提罗说道：“纵有学识之人，也可能在行止上仍然无明；纵有财富之人，也可能判断乖谬。若人只凭依‘学问’，便能真正获得幸福……”
युधिछिर उवाच
Educational Q&A
Learning (vidyā) and wealth (dhana) do not automatically produce happiness or right living; without sound judgment and ethical conduct, a ‘learned’ person may still remain effectively ignorant, and a rich person may still be misguided.
Yudhiṣṭhira raises a reflective doubt in the Anuśāsana-parvan’s instruction-setting: he observes that people who appear qualified—educated or wealthy—often still act unwisely, and he questions the assumption that mere reliance on learning guarantees genuine happiness.
