कश्चिद्द्विजातिप्रवरो वेदाध्यायी तपोधनः ।
तपस्वी धर्मशीलश्च कौशिको नाम भारत ॥१॥

1. Mārkaṇḍeya uvāca | kaścit dvijātipravaraḥ vedādhyāyī
tapodhanaḥ | tapasvī dharmaśīlaḥ ca kauśikaḥ nāma bhārata
1. Mārkaṇḍeya said: "O Bhārata, there was once a certain excellent Brahmin (dvijātipravara) named Kauśika, who was devoted to Vedic studies, whose wealth was asceticism (tapas), and who was a spiritual ascetic (tapasvin) and virtuous (dharmaśīla)."
साङ्गोपनिषदान्वेदानधीते द्विजसत्तमः ।

vṛkṣamūle kasmiṃścit vedān uccārayan sthitaḥ
2. That excellent Brahmin (dvijasattama) studied the Vedas along with their auxiliary texts (aṅgas) and Upaniṣads. He was once staying at the root of a certain tree, reciting the Vedas.

tayā purīṣam utsṛṣṭam brāhmaṇasya tadā upari
3. And above the tree, a crane (balākā) had settled. Then, by her, droppings were released upon the Brahmin.

भृशं क्रोधाभिभूतेन बलाका सा निरीक्षिता ॥४॥
4. tāmavekṣya tataḥ kruddhaḥ samapadhyāyata dvijaḥ ,
bhṛśaṁ krodhābhibhūtena balākā sā nirīkṣitā.
4. tām avekṣya tataḥ kruddhaḥ samapadhyāyata dvijaḥ
| bhṛśam krodhābhibhūtena balākā sā nirīkṣitā
4. Having seen her, the Brahmin then became enraged and intensely concentrated (on her, implying a curse). Overwhelmed by great anger (krodhābhibhūta), that crane (balākā) was stared at by him.
अपध्याता च विप्रेण न्यपतद्वसुधातले ।
बलाकां पतितां दृष्ट्वा गतसत्त्वामचेतनाम् ।

5. apadhyātā ca vipreṇa nyapatat
vasudhātale balākām patitām dṛṣṭvā
gatasattvām acetanām kāruṇyāt
abhisaṃtaptaḥ paryaśocata tām dvijaḥ
5. Cursed by the Brahmin, she fell to the ground. Seeing that crane fallen, lifeless, and unconscious, the Brahmin, greatly distressed out of compassion, lamented for her.

इत्युक्त्वा बहुशो विद्वान्ग्रामं भैक्षाय संश्रितः ॥६॥

ityuktvā bahuśo vidvāngrāmaṁ bhaikṣāya saṁśritaḥ.
6. akāryam kṛtavān asmi rāgadveṣabalātkṛtaḥ iti
uktvā bahuśaḥ vidvān grāmam bhaikṣāya saṃśritaḥ
6. "I have committed an improper act, compelled by passion and hatred." Having said this repeatedly, the wise (Brahmin) resorted to the village for alms.

7. grāme śucīni pracarankulāni bharatarṣabha ,
praviṣṭastatkulaṁ yatra pūrvaṁ caritavāṁstu saḥ.
7. grāme śucīni pracaran kulāni bharatarṣabha
praviṣṭaḥ tat kulam yatra pūrvam caritavān tu saḥ
7. O best among the Bhāratas (bharatarṣabha), while wandering among the pure households in the village, he entered that very household where he had previously been.
देहीति याचमानो वै तिष्ठेत्युक्तः स्त्रिया ततः ।
शौचं तु यावत्कुरुते भाजनस्य कुटुम्बिनी ॥८॥
8. dehīti yācamāno vai tiṣṭhetyuktaḥ striyā tataḥ ,
śaucaṁ tu yāvatkurute bhājanasya kuṭumbinī.
8. dehi iti yācamānaḥ vai tiṣṭha iti uktaḥ striyā
tataḥ śaucam tu yāvat kurute bhājanasya kuṭumbinī
8. Begging 'Give!', he was indeed told 'Wait!' by a woman. Then, while the housewife was cleaning the vessel...

pādyam ācamanīyam ca dadau bhartre tathā āsanam
10. But she, that virtuous woman, having seen her husband, dismissed that Brahmin. She then gave water for his feet, water for sipping, and also a seat to her husband.

daivatam ca patim mene bhartuḥ cittānusāriṇī
12. But she, O Yudhishthira, always eats the remnants of her husband's food. She considered her husband as her deity, being compliant with his thoughts.
न कर्मणा न मनसा नात्यश्नान्नापि चापिबत् ।
तं सर्वभावोपगता पतिशुश्रूषणे रता ॥१३॥

tam sarva-bhāva-upagatā pati-śuśrūṣaṇe ratā
13. She engaged in no (selfish) action (karma) or thought, neither did she eat excessively nor drink. With all her heart completely dedicated to him, she was devoted to the service of her husband.

saḥ ca api kṣudhitaḥ śrāntaḥ prāptaḥ śuśrūṣitaḥ mayā

patiḥ kṛtaḥ gṛhasthadharme vartantī brāhmaṇān avamanyase
21. The Brahmin said, "Brahmins are not more venerable; indeed, your husband has been made more venerable than they. You, who are observing the natural law (dharma) of a householder, are disrespecting Brahmins."
इन्द्रोऽप्येषां प्रणमते किं पुनर्मानुषा भुवि ।
अवलिप्ते न जानीषे वृद्धानां न श्रुतं त्वया ।
ब्राह्मणा ह्यग्निसदृशा दहेयुः पृथिवीमपि ॥२२॥
22. indro'pyeṣāṁ praṇamate kiṁ punarmānuṣā bhuvi ,

22. indraḥ api eṣām praṇamate kim punaḥ
mānuṣāḥ bhuvi avalipte na jānīṣe
vṛddhānām na śrutam tvayā brāhmaṇāḥ
hi agnisadṛśāḥ daheyuḥ pṛthivīm api
22. Even Indra bows to them; how much more, then, should humans on earth? O arrogant one, you neither know this, nor have you heard the wisdom of the elders. Indeed, Brahmins are like fire; they could burn even the earth.
स्त्र्युवाच ।
नावजानाम्यहं विप्रान्देवैस्तुल्यान्मनस्विनः ।
अपराधमिमं विप्र क्षन्तुमर्हसि मेऽनघ ॥२३॥

manasvinaḥ aparādham imam vipra kṣantum arhasi me anagha
23. The woman said, "I do not disrespect Brahmins, who are sagacious and equal to the gods. O sinless Brahmin, please forgive me for this offense."
जानामि तेजो विप्राणां महाभाग्यं च धीमताम् ।
अपेयः सागरः क्रोधात्कृतो हि लवणोदकः ॥२४॥
24. jānāmi tejo viprāṇāṁ mahābhāgyaṁ ca dhīmatām ,
apeyaḥ sāgaraḥ krodhātkṛto hi lavaṇodakaḥ.
24. jānāmi tejaḥ viprāṇām mahābhāgyam ca dhīmatām
apeyaḥ sāgaraḥ krodhāt kṛtaḥ hi lavaṇodakaḥ
24. I know the spiritual power of Brahmins and the great auspiciousness of the wise. Indeed, the ocean was made undrinkable salty water out of wrath.
तथैव दीप्ततपसां मुनीनां भावितात्मनाम् ।
येषां क्रोधाग्निरद्यापि दण्डके नोपशाम्यति ॥२५॥

25. tathā eva dīptatapasām munīnām bhāvitātmanām
yeṣām krodhāgniḥ adya api daṇḍake na upaśāmyati
25. Similarly, the fire of anger of those sages, whose austerities (tapas) are intense and whose inner selves (ātman) are cultivated, still does not subside even today in the Daṇḍaka forest.

26. brāhmaṇānām paribhavāt vātāpiḥ ca durātmavān
agastyam ṛṣim āsādya jīrṇaḥ krūraḥ mahāsuraḥ
26. And due to the insult to the Brahmins, the evil-minded Vātāpi, that cruel great demon, was consumed after approaching the sage Agastya.
प्रभावा बहवश्चापि श्रूयन्ते ब्रह्मवादिनाम् ।
क्रोधः सुविपुलो ब्रह्मन्प्रसादश्च महात्मनाम् ॥२७॥
27. prabhāvā bahavaścāpi śrūyante brahmavādinām ,
krodhaḥ suvipulo brahmanprasādaśca mahātmanām.
27. prabhāvāḥ bahavaḥ ca api śrūyante brahmavādinām
krodhaḥ suvipulaḥ brahman prasādaḥ ca mahātmanām
27. O Brahmin, many powers (prabhāva) of those who speak of the Absolute Truth (brahman) are indeed heard. The anger of great souls (ātman) is immense, and so is their grace.
अस्मिंस्त्वतिक्रमे ब्रह्मन्क्षन्तुमर्हसि मेऽनघ ।
पतिशुश्रूषया धर्मो यः स मे रोचते द्विज ॥२८॥

28. asmin tu atikrame brahman kṣantum arhasi me anagha
patiśuśrūṣayā dharmaḥ yaḥ saḥ me rocate dvija
28. But regarding this transgression, O sinless one (anagha) and Brahmin, you ought to forgive me. O twice-born one (dvija), the duty (dharma) which consists of serving one's husband, that is what pleases me.
दैवतेष्वपि सर्वेषु भर्ता मे दैवतं परम् ।
अविशेषेण तस्याहं कुर्यां धर्मं द्विजोत्तम ॥२९॥

29. daivateṣu api sarveṣu bhartā me daivatam param
aviśeṣeṇa tasya aham kuryām dharmam dvijottama

30. śuśrūṣāyāḥ phalam paśya patyuḥ brāhmaṇa yādṛśam
balākā hi tvayā dagdhā roṣāt tat viditam mama
30. Behold, O Brahmin, the kind of reward (that comes from) dedicated service to one's husband. For a crane was indeed incinerated by you out of wrath; that is known to me.

32. yaḥ vadet iha satyāni gurum santoṣayeta ca
hiṃsitaḥ ca na hiṃseta tam devā brāhmaṇam viduḥ

धनं तु ब्राह्मणस्याहुः स्वाध्यायं दममार्जवम् ।

39. The eternal natural law (dharma) is difficult to comprehend. But it is established in truth. The natural law (dharma) should be based on the authority of scripture (śruti) - this is the teaching of the elders.
बहुधा दृश्यते धर्मः सूक्ष्म एव द्विजोत्तम ।
भवानपि च धर्मज्ञः स्वाध्यायनिरतः शुचिः ।
न तु तत्त्वेन भगवन्धर्मान्वेत्सीति मे मतिः ॥४०॥
40. bahudhā dṛśyate dharmaḥ sūkṣma eva dvijottama ,

dvijottama bhavān api ca dharmajnaḥ
svādhyāyanirataḥ śuciḥ na tu tattvena
bhagavan dharmān vetsi iti me matiḥ
40. The natural law (dharma) is seen in many ways, and indeed, it is subtle, O best of twice-born ones (dvijottama)! You, sir, are also a knower of natural law (dharma), devoted to self-study (svādhyāya) and pure. However, O venerable one (bhagavan), it is my opinion that you do not truly know the various natural laws (dharma) in their essence.
मातापितृभ्यां शुश्रूषुः सत्यवादी जितेन्द्रियः ।

41. O best among brahmins (dvijottama), go there. May good fortune be with you. A fowler resides in Mithila who serves his parents, speaks the truth, and has conquered his senses. He will instruct you concerning the natural laws (dharma). You may proceed as you wish.
अत्युक्तमपि मे सर्वं क्षन्तुमर्हस्यनिन्दित ।
स्त्रियो ह्यवध्याः सर्वेषां ये धर्मविदुषो जनाः ॥४२॥
42. atyuktamapi me sarvaṁ kṣantumarhasyanindita ,

42. atiuktam api me sarvam kṣantum arhasi anindita
striyaḥ hi avadhyāḥ sarveṣām ye dharmaviduṣaḥ janāḥ
42. O blameless one (anindita), you should forgive all that was excessively spoken by me. For women are indeed inviolable for all those people who understand the natural law (dharma).

43. The brahmin said: 'I am pleased with you; may good fortune be yours. My anger has departed, O beautiful one (śobhane). The reproach you spoke was truly a supreme benefit for me. May there be welfare for you. I will now depart and achieve my purpose, O beautiful one (śobhane).'

44. Mārkaṇḍeya said: 'Dismissed by her, that brahmin (dvija) Kauśika departed, returning to his own dwelling. O best among men (narasattama), he was blaming himself.'
