Shloka 10
सत्य–अनृत, प्रकाश–तमस्, स्वर्ग–नरक विवेचनम्
Truth and Untruth as Light and Darkness; Svarga and Naraka as Ethical Consequences
एवं स भगवान् पृष्टो भरद्वाजेन संशयम् | ब्रद्मर्षिब्रह्मसंकाश: सर्व तस्मै ततोडब्रवीत्
evaṁ sa bhagavān pṛṣṭo bharadvājena saṁśayam | brahmarṣir brahmasaṅkāśaḥ sarvaṁ tasmai tato ’bravīt ||
এইভাবে ভরদ্বাজ মুনি সংশয়সহ প্রশ্ন করলে, ব্রহ্মার ন্যায় তেজস্বী ব্রহ্মর্ষি ভগবান ভৃগু তখন তাঁকে সব কথা সম্পূর্ণভাবে বললেন।

Educational Q&A
The verse highlights a dharmic method of learning: doubts should be raised respectfully before a qualified authority, and the teacher should respond comprehensively to remove uncertainty. It underscores clarity, completeness, and the ethical responsibility of instruction.
Bhīṣma narrates that Bharadvāja questioned a radiant brahmarṣi about a doubt; the sage then explained the entire matter to him, providing a full resolution.
