Shloka 23
Śānti Parva, Adhyāya 52 — Bhīṣma’s Humility Before Kṛṣṇa and the Granting of Boons
ततः सर्वार्तिवं दिव्यं पुष्पवर्ष नभस्तलात् । पपात यत्र वार्ष्णेय: सगाड़्रेय:ः सपाण्डव:,तत्पश्चात् जहाँ ग्जपुत्र भीष्म और पाण्डुनन्दन युधिष्ठिरके साथ वृष्णिवंशी भगवान् श्रीकृष्ण विराजमान थे, वहाँ आकाशसे सभी ऋतुओंमें खिलनेवाले दिव्य पुष्पोंकी वर्षा होने लगी
tataḥ sarvārti-vaṁ divyaṁ puṣpa-varṣaṁ nabhas-talāt | papāta yatra vārṣṇeyaḥ sa-gāṅgeyaḥ sa-pāṇḍavaḥ ||
Then, from the vault of the sky, a divine shower of flowers—blossoms of every season—fell upon the place where Kṛṣṇa of the Vṛṣṇi line was seated together with Bhīṣma, the son of the Gaṅgā, and the Pāṇḍava Yudhiṣṭhira. That celestial offering proclaimed reverence for the sacred discourse on dharma and for the moral authority of those assembled.
