Shloka 6
नागैः सह ब्राह्मणस्य अतिथिधर्म-व्रतसंवादः | The Brahmin’s Vow and the Nāgas’ Hospitality Appeal
तस्मादुत्तिष्ठते विप्र देवाद् विश्वभुवः पते: । क्षमा क्षमावतां श्रेष्ठ यया भूमिस्तु युज्यते
tasmād uttiṣṭhate vipra devād viśvabhuvaḥ pateḥ | kṣamā kṣamāvatāṃ śreṣṭha yayā bhūmis tu yujyate ||
那罗陀说道：“因此，婆罗门啊，起身吧。宽恕出自那位至上神主——祂乃宇宙造物主之主。宽恕者中最胜者啊，正因宽恕，大地得以维系，众生之间的和合方能成立。”

Educational Q&A
Forgiveness (kṣamā) is presented as a divine principle originating from the Supreme Lord and as a force that sustains the world; therefore one should rise above anger and practice forbearance as a foundation of dharma and social stability.
Nārada exhorts a brahmin interlocutor to ‘rise up’—to adopt a higher moral stance—and grounds his counsel in theology: even the creator (Brahmā) has a lord, and from that supreme source forgiveness arises, by which the earth and human relations remain joined and workable.
