Sanatsujāta–Dhṛtarāṣṭra Saṃvāda: Brahmacarya and the Formless Brahman
Udyoga Parva 44
यो नैतेभ्य: प्रच्यवेद् द्वादशभ्य: सर्वामपीमां पृथिवीं स शिष्यात् । त्रिभिद्धभ्यामेकतो वान्वितो यो नास्य स्वमस्तीति च वेदितव्यम्
yo naitebhyaḥ pracyaved dvādaśabhyaḥ sarvām apīmāṃ pṛthivīṃ sa śiṣyāt | tribhir dvābhyām ekato vānvito yo nāsya svam astīti ca veditavyam ||
凡不曾背离此十二种修持者,堪当统御此整个大地。然若仅具其中三种、两种,乃至一种者,当知其无一物可称“我有”——即已离于占有之心与所有之想。
सनत्युजात उवाच
Steadfastness in a complete set of ethical disciplines makes one truly fit to rule; partial attainment should culminate in inner renunciation—freedom from the sense of ‘mine’—so that virtue does not become a basis for pride or possession.
Sanatsujata continues his instruction on dharma and inner mastery in the Udyoga Parva context, presenting a standard of disciplined conduct for leadership and emphasizing that even limited virtue should be accompanied by non-attachment.
