Shloka 10
इन्द्रेण वृत्रवधः, ब्रह्महत्याया अनुगमनम्, तथा च विभाजन-निवासविधानम्
Indra’s defeat of Vṛtra; pursuit by Brahmahatyā; allocation of her abodes
अनित्यत्वेन च स्नेहं क्षुधां योगेन पण्डित: । कारुण्येनात्मनो मान तृष्णां च परितोषत:,विद्वान् पुरुष वस्तुओंकी अनित्यताका चिन्तन करके स्नेहको, योगाभ्यासके द्वारा क्षुधाको, करुणाके द्वारा अपने अभिमानको और संतोषसे तृष्णाको जीते
anityatvena ca snehaṁ kṣudhāṁ yogena paṇḍitaḥ | kāruṇyenātmano mānaṁ tṛṣṇāṁ ca paritoṣataḥ ||
Bhīṣma said: A wise person conquers attachment by reflecting on the impermanence of all things; overcomes hunger through disciplined yogic practice; subdues self-conceit through compassion; and masters craving through contentment. Thus, by cultivating these inner disciplines, one becomes fit for steady conduct in dharma.
