Śikṣā-nirūpaṇa (Exposition of Discipline): Son’s Marriage, Paternal Duty, and Royal Administration
यो हि निष्पादयेन्नीलीं नीलीरंगातिसेचकः । निर्वास्यौ तावुभौ पापौ यो वै मद्यं करोति च ॥ ३६ ॥
yo hi niṣpādayennīlīṃ nīlīraṃgātisecakaḥ | nirvāsyau tāvubhau pāpau yo vai madyaṃ karoti ca || 36 ||
凡制造“尼利”(nīlī,靛蓝染料)者,及过度以靛蓝染色者——二者皆为罪人,当逐出境外;同样,酿造醉酒之酒者亦然。
Narada (in dialogue context with Sanatkumara tradition; didactic enumeration of adharma)
Vrata: none
Primary Rasa: raudra
Secondary Rasa: bibhatsa
It frames certain livelihoods—especially intoxicant production and specific dye-related trades—as community-corrupting adharma, emphasizing purity of conduct and the protection of social and ritual order.
By warning against occupations tied to intoxication and moral decline, it indirectly supports a bhakti-oriented life of śauca (purity) and self-restraint, which are considered supportive disciplines for steady devotion.
Primarily Dharma-śāstra style ācāra (conduct) and societal regulation rather than a specific Vedanga; it reflects applied ritual-ethical reasoning used to preserve śauca needed for yajña and vrata observance.
