सर्वे विप्राश्ष॒ देवाश्ष तथा शमविदो जना: । ब्रह्माणं परमं देवमनन्तं परमच्युतम्
sarve viprāś ca devāś ca tathā śamavido janāḥ | brahmāṇaṃ paramaṃ devam anantaṃ paramācyutam ||
Bhīṣma dit : «Tous les brāhmaṇas, les dieux également, et de même ceux qui connaissent la paix intérieure — tous vénèrent Brahman, la Divinité suprême : l’Infini, le plus haut “Acyuta”, l’Infaillible.»

That the highest object of reverence is the Supreme—Brahman—described as infinite and unfailing (Acyuta), acknowledged across spiritual and cosmic orders: brāhmaṇas, gods, and disciplined seekers of tranquillity.
In Śānti Parva, Bhīṣma continues his instruction on dharma and higher truth, emphasizing a shared recognition of the Supreme principle—Brahman/Paramadeva—by diverse authorities and realized practitioners.
