Shloka 39
योग–सांख्यसमन्वयः, रथोपमा, व्यक्त–अव्यक्तविवेकः
Yoga–Sāṃkhya Synthesis, Chariot Allegory, and the Vyakta–Avyakta Distinction
सदा हि वदतां धर्म सदा चाप्रतिगृह्नताम् । अर्ध च रात्र्या: स्वपतां दिवा चास्वपतां तथा,सदा धर्मकी ही चर्चामें लगे रहते और प्रतिग्रहसे दूर रहते थे। रातके आधे भागमें ही सोते थे और दिनमें नहीं सोते थे
śakra uvāca | sadā hi vadatāṃ dharmaṃ sadā cāpratigṛhṇatām | ardhaṃ ca rātryāḥ svapatāṃ divā cāsvapatāṃ tathā ||
释迦罗说道：“他们确实恒常谈论达摩，并坚决不受馈赠与利诱。他们只睡半夜，白昼亦不睡。”

Educational Q&A
The verse praises a disciplined ethical life: constant reflection and discourse on dharma, strict avoidance of accepting gifts that could compromise integrity (apratigraha), and regulated sleep—habits that support clarity, restraint, and moral steadiness.
Indra (Śakra) describes the conduct of exemplary people, highlighting their daily practices—speaking on dharma, refusing acceptance of gifts, and maintaining austerity in sleep—as evidence of their righteousness and self-control.
