Shloka 6
अनादिनिधन विष्णुं सर्वलोकमहेश्वरम् । लोकाध्यक्षं स्तुवन् नित्यं सर्वदुःखातिगो भवेत्
anādinidhanaṁ viṣṇuṁ sarvalokamaheśvaram | lokādhyakṣaṁ stuvan nityaṁ sarvaduḥkhātigo bhavet ||
ভীষ্ম বললেন—যে ব্যক্তি অনাদি-অনন্ত, সর্বলোকের মহেশ্বর, লোকাধ্যক্ষ বিষ্ণুর নিত্য স্তব করে, সে সকল দুঃখ অতিক্রম করে।

Constant praise and remembrance of Vishnu—understood as the eternal, all-pervading Lord and overseer of the cosmos—enables a person to transcend suffering. The emphasis is on nityatā (steadiness/continuity) in devotion as a transformative practice.
In the Anushasana Parva’s instruction section, Bhishma is teaching about dharma and spiritual disciplines. Here he recommends sustained stuti of Vishnu, presenting it as a means to rise beyond the pains of worldly existence.
