Śuka’s Guṇa-Transcendence and Vyāsa’s Consolation (शुकगति-वर्णनम्)
वर्णप्रवरमुख्यासि ब्राह्मणी क्षत्रियस्त्वहम् । नावयोरेकयोगो<स्ति मा कृथा वर्णसंकरम्
varṇapravaramukhyāsi brāhmaṇī kṣatriyastvaham | nāvayorekayogo 'sti mā kṛthā varṇasaṅkaram ||
在婆罗门阶层诸多最尊最显的少女之中，你最为卓绝。你是婆罗门女子，而我是刹帝利；因此，我与你的结合决不相宜。莫要招致所谓“种姓杂乱”（varṇa-saṅkara）之过。

Educational Q&A
Janaka emphasizes restraint and adherence to dharma as he understands it: despite admiration, he refuses a cross-varṇa union, warning against the socially and ethically censured consequence termed varṇa-saṅkara.
In a dialogue within Śānti Parva, King Janaka addresses a Brahmin maiden, praising her eminence but declining union with her on the grounds that she is brāhmaṇī while he is kṣatriya, and he cautions her not to cause varṇa-saṅkara.
