जनेश्वर! इस गृहस्थ-धर्मका पालन करते रहनेपर तुम इहलोकमें सुयश और परलोकमें स्वर्ग प्राप्त कर लोगे ।। इति श्रीमहाभारते अनुशासनपर्वणि दानधर्मपर्वणि बलिदानविधिनाम सप्तनवतितमो<ध्याय:
janeśvara! asya gṛhastha-dharmasya pālanaṃ satataṃ kurvan tvaṃ iha-loke suyaśaḥ prāpsyasi, para-loke ca svargaṃ prāpsyasi.
ビーシュマは言った。「人々の主よ、この家住者の法（グリハスタ・ダルマ）を守り続けるなら、この世においては善き名声を得、かの世においては天界（スヴァルガ）に至るであろう。」——かくして『シュリー・マハーバーラタ』「アヌシャーサナ・パルヴァ」中の「ダーナ・ダルマ・パルヴァ」における、「バリ供献の作法」と名づけられた第九十七章は終わった。

Educational Q&A
Steady observance of gṛhastha-dharma yields two fruits: honorable reputation in this life and heavenly attainment after death—linking ethical household conduct with both social and spiritual outcomes.
In the Anuśāsana Parva’s instruction section on gifts and offerings, Bhishma concludes a counsel to the addressed ruler, affirming the benefits of continuing the prescribed householder duties.
