मृत्योर्ब्रह्मणा नियोजनम् — The Commissioning of Mṛtyu by Brahmā
विशोको निर्मम: शान्त: प्रसन्नात्मा विमत्सर: | षड्भिल॑क्षणवानेतै: समग्र: पुनरेष्यति
viśoko nirmamaḥ śāntaḥ prasannātmā vimatsaraḥ | ṣaḍbhir lakṣaṇavān etaiḥ samagraḥ punar eṣyati ||
قال فياسا: «من خلا من الحزن، ومن نُزعة التملّك، وكان ساكنًا مطمئنًا، صافِيَ الباطن مبتهجًا، منزّهًا عن الحسد، متّصفًا بالقناعة—فمن اجتمعت فيه هذه العلامات الستّ عاد كاملًا، وبلغ أسمى تمام، راجعًا إلى الكمال بمعرفةٍ مُحرِّرة.»

Educational Q&A
Liberation-oriented wholeness arises from cultivating six inner virtues: freedom from grief, non-possessiveness, tranquility, clarity/cheerfulness of mind, and absence of envy (with the verse presenting these as defining marks of a spiritually complete person).
In the instruction-heavy Shānti Parva, Vyāsa states a concise criterion for spiritual maturity: a person recognized by these inner qualities becomes ‘samagra’—integrated and fulfilled—moving toward the highest end (mokṣa) through knowledge and inner discipline.
