Valmiki Ramayana · Bala Kanda · Sarga 1
चारित्रेण च को युक्तः सर्वभूतेषु को हितः । विद्वान् कः समर्थः कश्च प्रियश्च कश्च पण्डितः ॥
Translation (English)

Who is endowed with good conduct, benevolent to all beings, learned, capable, dear to all, and wise?

Gita Press

अनुवाद (हिंदी)

आचरण में कौन श्रेष्ठ है, सब प्राणियों का हितैषी है, विद्वान्, समर्थ, प्रिय और पण्डित कौन है?

Commentary

The questioning continues — good conduct, benevolence towards all beings, learning, capability, and wisdom. This broadens the portrait of the ideal person beyond personal virtue to include social and intellectual qualities. The universal scope ('all beings') is notable — it reflects the Ramayana's inclusive vision.
