Haṃsa–Sādhya Saṃvāda: Satya, Dama, Kṣamā and the Discipline of Speech
अग्नीषोमाविदं सर्वमिति यश्चानुपश्यति । न च संस्पृश्यते भावैरद्धुतैर्मुक्त एव सः
agnīṣomāv idaṃ sarvam iti yaścānupaśyati | na ca saṃspṛśyate bhāvair adbhutair mukta eva saḥ ||
قال بهيشما: من أدرك حقًّا أن هذا العالم كله ليس إلا «أغني» و«سوما»—أي ثنائية المُتَمَتِّع والمُتَمَتَّع به—وعرف أن الذات مباينة لهما، لم تمسّه تحوّلات المايا العجيبة كاللذة والألم. فذلك محرَّر على كل وجه.

Educational Q&A
Liberation is described as the state of one who sees the world as a play of paired principles (Agni–Soma, read as enjoyer–enjoyed) while recognizing the Self as distinct from these changing experiences; therefore pleasure, pain, and other māyā-born states do not bind or disturb.
In the Śānti Parva’s instruction section, Bhishma continues advising Yudhiṣṭhira on the path of peace and release after the war, presenting a contemplative vision that weakens attachment to worldly experience and points toward mokṣa.
