विश्वस्तस्यैति यो दारान् यश्चापि गुरुतल्पग: । वृषलीपतिर्द्धिजो यश्व॒ पानपश्चैव भारत
viśvastasya eti yo dārān yaś cāpi gurutalpagaḥ | vṛṣalīpatir dvijo yaś ca pānapaś caiva bhārata ||
毗度罗说：“噢，婆罗多啊，凡玷污信任自己之人的妻者；凡登师床者（即与导师之妻通奸者）；凡二次生者（dvija）而娶首陀罗女子为妻者；以及饮用醉酒之物者——此等人当视同弑婆罗门者。与之交往，被视为极重的道德污染，圣法命其行赎罪之仪（prāyaścitta）。”

Educational Q&A
Vidura classifies certain betrayals and transgressions—especially violating a trusted man’s wife, adultery with the guru’s wife, improper marriage across prescribed norms for a dvija, and drinking intoxicants—as gravely destructive to dharma, comparable in severity to brahmahatyā, and warns that association with such acts/actors requires expiation.
In Udyoga Parva, Vidura counsels the Kuru king (addressed as ‘Bhārata’, i.e., Dhṛtarāṣṭra) on righteous conduct. This verse is part of his moral admonition, listing behaviors that dharma tradition treats as extremely serious offenses.
