Bhīṣma sprach: „O Bhārata, die Söhne sollen einem Lehrer anvertraut werden, damit sie in heiligem Wissen und in den Pflichten der Sippe unterwiesen werden. Und wenn eine Tochter geboren wird, soll man sie einem würdigen und weisen jungen Mann aus gutem Hause zur Ehe geben.“

Educational Q&A
To sustain and refine the family line through dharmic upbringing: sons should be trained in knowledge and kuladharma under a teacher, and daughters should be married to a worthy, wise man of good family—emphasizing education, responsibility, and social-ethical continuity.
In the Anuśāsana Parva, Bhīṣma is instructing Yudhiṣṭhira on righteous conduct (dharma). Here he outlines household and lineage obligations: educating sons through proper discipline and arranging a suitable marriage for a daughter.
