अपने पुत्र, पौत्र, पुत्री आदिको लौकिक आचार-व्यवहारकी शिक्षा देवे। अपनी शक्तिके अनुसार उनके विवाह - शादी करे । तथा गौ, घोड़ा, भैंस आदिको अपने अपने स्थान पर बांधे और सन्ध्याके समय पहलेकी तरह वह ब्राह्मण सन्ध्या - वंदना करे ॥ ४२--४३ ॥
क्षत्रियाणां विधिं प्रोचे संक्षेपाच्छूयतां त्वहम् ।

भृत्यो यः क्षत्रियस्तेन गन्तव्यं राजसद्मनि ॥ ४४ ॥ सभास्थितं महीपालं नत्वाऽग्रे स्थीयते भुवि । सशस्त्रः स्वामिभक्तः सन्करकुड्मलवान्मुदा ॥ ४५ ॥ नृपाज्ञया यथास्थानं तथैवोपविशेत्सुखम् । स्वाम्यर्थं च त्यजेत्प्राणान् स्वाम्यर्थे देहधारणम् ॥ ४६ ॥ एतत्कार्य प्रकर्तव्यं तच्छ्रुत्वा शीघ्रतः पुनः । तत्कर्तव्यं प्रयत्नेन प्रसन्नः स्याद्यतो नृपः ॥ ४७ ॥ स्वामिद्रोही कृतमश्च यश्च विश्वासघातकः । पशुघाती कृपाहीनः श्वभ्रं याति स निन्दकः ॥ ४८ ॥ नृपाज्ञा यत्र विद्येत स गच्छेत्तत्र वेगतः ।
सन्ध्यां सामायिकं पात्रदानं तपश्च साधयेत् ॥ ४९ ॥
अत्र थोड़ासा क्षत्रियोंका कर्तव्य बताया जाता है । उसे ध्यान देकर सुनिए । जो क्षत्रिय नौकर हो वह प्रातः उठकर अस्त्र-शस्त्रसे सुसज्जित हो राजभवनको जावे । वहाँ जाकर सभामें बैठे हुए राजाको नमस्कार कर दोनों हाथ जोड़ हृदयमें स्वामीकी भक्ति रखता हुआ बड़े हर्षसे उसके सामने भूमिपर खड़ा रहे। फिर राजाकी आज्ञा से अपने योग्य स्थानमें जाकर सुखसे बैठ जावे । मौका आने पर स्वामी के लिए अपने प्राणोंकी आहूति कर दे; क्योंकि सेवकोंका देह धारण करना स्वामींके लिए ही है । राजा कहे कि यह कार्य करो उसे बहुत जल्दी और पूरी कोशिश के साथ करे, जिससे अपना स्वामी अपने से प्रसन्न रहे । जो भृत्य स्वामीका द्रोही, कृतघ्नी, विश्वासघाती, पशुधाती, निर्दयी और निन्दा करनेवाला होता है वह मरकर नरकको जाता है । राजाकी जहां भेजने की आज्ञा हो वहाँ शीघ्र जावे। सन्ध्याबंदन, सामायिक, पात्र दान, तपश्चरण आदि कर्तव्योंकी साधना करता रहे ॥ ४४-४९ ॥
देवपूजां परां कृत्वा पूर्वोक्तविधिना नृपः । आगत्योपविशेत्स्वस्थः सभायां सिंहविष्टरे ॥ ५० ॥ न्यायमार्गेण सर्वैश्च सुदृष्टया प्रतिपालयेत् । प्रजा धर्मसमासक्ता विना प्रजां कुतो वृषः ॥ ५१ ॥ दुष्टानां निग्रहं कुर्याच्छिष्टानां प्रतिपालनम् । जिनेन्द्राणां मुनीन्द्राणां नमनादिक्रियां भजेत् ॥ ५२ ॥

I will briefly explain the duties of Kshatriyas, listen carefully.

A Kshatriya who is a servant should go to the royal palace in the morning, armed with weapons. After bowing to the king seated in the assembly, he should stand before him with folded hands, filled with devotion to his master, and with great joy. He should then sit down comfortably in his designated place according to the king's command. He should sacrifice his life for his master, for the purpose of a servant is to serve his master.

When the king commands, "Do this," he should do it quickly and with utmost effort, so that his master is pleased with him. A servant who is a traitor to his master, ungrateful, treacherous, a killer of animals, cruel, and a slanderer will go to hell after death.

He should go quickly wherever the king commands him to go. He should perform Sandhyavandana, Samayika, offering food to the needy, and austerity. || 44-49 ||

After performing the worship of the gods as described earlier, the king should come and sit comfortably in the assembly, on the lion throne. He should protect all beings with justice and fairness. Without subjects, what is a king?

He should punish the wicked and protect the righteous. He should perform acts of bowing down to the Jinas and the Munis. || 50-52 ||
