कपिल–स्यूमरश्मि संवादः
Kapila and Syūmaraśmi on Renunciation, Householder Support, and Epistemic Authority
नाहं परेषां कृत्यानि प्रशंसामि न गर्हये । आकाशस्येव विप्रेन्द्र पश्यँललोकस्य चित्रताम्
nāhaṁ pareṣāṁ kṛtyāni praśaṁsāmi na garhaye | ākāśasyeva viprendra paśyaṁl lokasya citratām ||
图拉达拉说道：“我既不赞美，也不责难他人的作为。噢，最上之婆罗门，我如虚空般不染不著，只是观照世间种种行动的繁多与奇妙。”
तुलाधार उवाच
Educational Q&A
The core teaching is ethical equanimity: one should refrain from impulsive praise or blame of others’ actions and instead cultivate detached, impartial observation—‘like the sky’—recognizing the world’s complex diversity.
In Śānti Parva’s dialogue, Tulādhāra instructs a brāhmaṇa interlocutor. Here he states his stance of non-attachment and non-judgment, presenting his spiritual perspective on how to view the varied conduct of people in the world.
