अक्रोधन: सत्यवादी भूतानामविहिंसक: । अनसूयुरजिद्दाश्व शतं वर्षाणि जीवति
Translation
Bhīṣma bersabda: Orang yang tanpa amarah, berkata benar, tidak menyakiti makhluk mana pun, tidak suka mencela, dan bebas dari tipu daya—ia hidup seratus tahun. Hendaklah ia makan dengan pikiran terkendali pada pagi dan petang saja; jangan makan di sela-sela. Jangan makan dengan paksaan (cara yang tak patut), dan jangan pula menerima makanan śrāddha milik orang lain.
