आचारप्रशंसा
Praise of Ācāra as the Basis of Longevity, Fame, and Prosperity
गुरुणा चैव निर्बन्धो न कर्तव्य: कदाचन । अनुमान्य: प्रसाद्यश्न गुरु: क्रुद्धो युधिष्ठिर
guruṇā caiva nirbandho na kartavyaḥ kadācana | anumānyaḥ prasādyāśna guruḥ kruddho yudhiṣṭhira ||
ভীষ্মে ক’লে—হে যুধিষ্ঠিৰ, গুৰুৰ সৈতে কেতিয়াও জেদ বা বিবাদ কৰা উচিত নহয়; গুৰু ক্ৰুদ্ধ হ’লেও যথোচিত সন্মান ৰাখি, তেওঁক প্ৰসন্ন কৰি, মিলন-সমাধানৰ আচৰণেই কৰা উচিত।
भीष्म उवाच
Do not engage in obstinate insistence or confrontation with one’s teacher; instead, uphold dharma through respect, patience, and conciliatory conduct—especially when the teacher is displeased.
In Bhīṣma’s instruction to Yudhiṣṭhira in the Anuśāsana Parva, he lays down a rule of ethical behavior regarding the guru: even if the guru becomes angry, the disciple should not contend but should honor and appease the teacher.
