Gṛhastha-vṛtti and Niyama: Models of Householder Livelihood and Discipline (गृहस्थवृत्ति-नियमाः)
एतैर्वर्धयते तेज: पाप्मानं चापकर्षति । जो ब्राह्मण हर्ष
etair vardhayate tejaḥ pāpmānaṃ cāpakarṣati | yo brāhmaṇaḥ harṣa-mada-krodha-se rahitaḥ sa kadācid duḥkhaṃ na anubhavati | dāna-vedādhyayana-yajña-tapaḥ-lajjā-saralatā-indriya-saṃyamaiḥ sadguṇaiḥ brāhmaṇaḥ sva-tejasaḥ vṛddhiṃ karoti pāpasya ca nāśaṃ karoti ||
毗耶娑说：凭借这些德行，人能增长内在的灵光，远离罪垢。那不为狂喜所动、不为傲慢之醉所迷、亦不为嗔怒所役的婆罗门，便无须承受苦难。以布施、研习吠陀、行祭祀（yajña）、修苦行、持惭愧、守质直、制御诸根等善德，婆罗门增益其内在光辉，灭除诸恶。

Educational Q&A
Cultivating specific virtues—charity, Vedic study, sacrifice, austerity, modesty, simplicity, and sense-restraint—builds inner tejas (spiritual-moral radiance) and removes pāpman (sin). Freedom from elation, pride, and anger is presented as a condition for avoiding suffering.
In the didactic setting of Śānti Parva, Vyāsa instructs on dharma and inner discipline, describing the qualities by which a brāhmaṇa purifies himself, increases spiritual potency, and diminishes sin.
