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,भरद्वाज मुनिके इस प्रकार अपना संशय पूछनेपर ब्रह्माजीके समान तेजस्वी ब्रह्मर्षि भगवान् भृगुने उन्हें सब कुछ बताया
evaṁ sa bhagavān pṛṣṭo bharadvājena saṁśayam | brahmarṣir brahmasaṅkāśaḥ sarvaṁ tasmai tato ’bravīt ||
Dijo Bhīṣma: Así, cuando Bharadvāja planteó su duda y preguntó, aquel bienaventurado sabio—radiante como Brahmā—le explicó todo por completo, disipando la incertidumbre con una enseñanza de autoridad.
