अयोध्यावर्णनम्
Description of Ayodhya under Daśaratha
नामृष्टभोजी नादाता नाप्यनङ्गदनिष्कधृक् ।नाहस्ताभरणो वाऽपि दृश्यते नाप्यनात्मवान् ।।1.6.11।।
nāmṛṣṭabhojī nādātā nāpy anaṅgadaniṣkadhṛk |
nāhastābharaṇo vāpi dṛśyate nāpy anātmavān ||1.6.11||
无人进食而不满足,无人不慷慨大方;无人不佩戴臂钏和项链,亦无人手中无宝;无人缺乏自制力。
(In the city of Ayodhya) there was no one who did not eat food to full satisfaction and was not charitable. None was found without wearing ornaments on the hands and bracelets on the upper arms and around the neck. Also no one could be seen who had not restrained his passions and emotions.
Dharma is expressed as a balanced life: material sufficiency joined with dāna (generosity) and ātmanyama (self-restraint).
A continued civic portrait of Ayodhyā, highlighting both wealth (ornaments, abundance) and moral discipline (charity, restraint).
Self-control and generosity as common public virtues—signs of a dharmic society.
