कामात्मानः स्वर्गपरा जन्मकर्मफलप्रदाम् | क्रियाविशेषबहुलां भोगैश्वर्यगतिं प्रति
kāmātmānaḥ svargaparā janmakarmaphalapradām . kriyāviśeṣabahulāṃ bhogaiśvaryagatiṃ prati
哦,波利萨(Prtha)之子,那些不明智的人,他们宣说这种华丽的言辞,承诺通过仪式和职责获得转生,并充满各种旨在获得享乐和财富的特殊仪式;他们沉溺于《吠陀》(Vedas)的言论,宣称除此之外别无他物;他们的心充满欲望,并以天堂为目标。
-2.43 O son of Prtha, those undiscerning people who utter this flowery talk which promises birth as a result of rites and duties, and is full of various special rites meant for the attainment of enjoyment and affluence , they remain engrossed in the utterances of the Vedas and declare that nothing else exists; their minds are full of desires and they have heaven as the goal.
那些缺乏辨别力的不明智之人,过分强调《吠陀》(Vedas)中的“业部”(Karma Kanda)或仪式部分,该部分规定了特定行动以获得特定果报的具体规则,并过度赞美这些行动和回报。他们非常迷恋那些规定获得天国享乐之道的《吠陀》篇章。他们声称,除了通过执行《吠陀》“业部”的仪式所能获得的天堂(Svarga)感官享乐之外,别无他物。《吠陀》主要分为两大部分——“业部”(Karma Kanda,处理行动的部分)和“智部”(Jnana Kanda,处理知识的部分)。“业部”包括《梵书》(Brahmanas)和《本集》(Samhitas)。这是由贾伊米尼(Jaimini)创立的前弥曼差(Purvamimamsa)学派的权威。该学派的追随者处理仪式,并规定了许多仪式以在此世获得享乐和权力,并在天堂获得幸福。他们将此视为人类存在的最终目标。普通人被他们的赞美所吸引。“智部”包括《森林书》(Aranyakas)和《奥义书》(Upanishads),它们探讨梵(Brahman)或至高真我(Supreme Self)的本质。天堂的生活也是短暂的。在善行果报耗尽之后,一个人必须回到这个尘世。解脱(Moksha)只能通过真我(Self)的知识获得,而不能通过进行成千上万的祭祀来获得。奎师那(Krishna)主将弥曼差(Mimamsakas)学派通过进行《吠陀》祭祀以获得天堂、权力和世间主宰地位的教义置于相对次要的地位,因为它们无法给予我们最终的解脱。
. - 2.43. O son of Prtha ! Those, whose very nature is desire, whose goal is heaven, who esteem only the Vedic declaration [of fruits], who declare that there is nothing else, who proclaim this flowery speech about the paths to the lordship of the objects of enjoyment-[the paths] that are full of different actionsand who desire action alone as a fruit of their birth-they are men without insight.
