Shloka 5
Ahiṃsā as Threefold Restraint (Mind–Speech–Action) and the Ethics of Consumption
नैतदन्येन शक््यं हि वक्तुं केनचिदद्य वै । वक्ता बृहस्पतिसमो न हान्यो विद्यते क्वचित्,आज दूसरा कोई इस विषयका प्रतिपादन नहीं कर सकता। बृहस्पतिजीके समान वक्ता दूसरा कोई कहीं भी नहीं है
naitad anyena śakyaṃ hi vaktuṃ kenacid adya vai | vaktā bṛhaspati-samo na hānyo vidyate kvacit ||
قال بيشما: «اليوم لا يستطيع أحدٌ غيره أن يبيّن هذه المسألة بيانًا حقًّا. ولا يوجد في مكانٍ ما متكلّمٌ يضاهي بْرِهَسْبَتِي (Bṛhaspati).»

Educational Q&A
The verse underscores the need for qualified authority in matters of dharma: certain teachings require an exceptional, Bṛhaspati-like mastery, and ordinary speakers are inadequate for fully conveying them.
Bhīṣma, in the course of his instruction, emphasizes the uniqueness of an ideal teacher by declaring that no one else can properly explain the topic and that no speaker equals Bṛhaspati anywhere.
