श्रिया तेषां च किं कार्यं समृद्धानां तथापि यत् । जातिधर्मेण चाभेद्या विधातुरपि ते मताः
śriyā teṣāṃ ca kiṃ kāryaṃ samṛddhānāṃ tathāpi yat | jātidharmeṇa cābhedyā vidhāturapi te matāḥ
既然他们本已富足,赐予财宝又有何用?依其天性与族类之法,他们被认定不可更改——即使在造化的主宰者面前亦然。
Bṛhaspati
Listener: Suraśreṣṭha (deva leadership)
Scene: Bṛhaspati explains that wealth cannot sway the already wealthy; Daityas appear adorned and unmoved, standing in tight-knit ranks bound by their own code, while the deva counsel scene turns from offering to strategic reassessment.
External incentives cannot reform those bound to harmful nature; discernment prevents wasted effort and protects dharma.
No tīrtha is mentioned.
None.
