Brāhmaṇa-pūjā, Haviḥ-dāna, and the Vāsudeva–Pṛthivī Saṃvāda
Chapter 34
जिनके कार्योमें धर्म, अर्थ और काम तीनोंका निर्वाह होता है, किसी एककी भी हानि नहीं होने पाती तथा जो सदा शिष्टाचारमें ही संलग्न रहते हैं, उनको मैं नमस्कार करता हूँ
yeṣāṁ kāryeṣu dharma-artha-kāmāḥ trayo 'pi samyak pravartante, na caikasya api hāniḥ sambhavati, ye ca sadā śiṣṭācāre eva saṁlagnāḥ, tān ahaṁ namasyāmi.
那罗陀说道:我礼敬那些人在一切作为中圆满维系人生三义——达摩、阿尔塔(物质福祉)与迦摩(正当欲求)——使其无一受损、无一被忽略;并礼敬那些恒常安住于雅正之行、奉持贤德之准则的人。
नारद उवाच
True excellence in action lies in balancing the three puruṣārthas—dharma, artha, and kāma—so that none is sacrificed, and in consistently adhering to śiṣṭācāra (the refined conduct upheld by the virtuous).
Nārada offers a reverential statement, praising and saluting those exemplary people whose actions harmonize moral duty, practical welfare, and legitimate desire, while remaining steadfast in proper, cultured behavior.
