Daśa-Karmapatha: Restraints of Body, Speech, and Mind (दश कर्मपथ)
अनभिध्या परस्वेषु सर्वसत्त्वेषु सौहदम् । कर्मणां फलमस्तीति त्रिविधं मनसा चरेत्
anabhidhyā parasveṣu sarvasattveṣu saudham | karmaṇāṁ phalam astīti trividhaṁ manasā caret |
ビーシュマは言った。「心において三つの修めを養え。すなわち他人の財を貪らぬこと、あらゆる生きとし生けるものに善意を保つこと、そして行いは必ず果を結ぶと確信すること。この三つを常に実践せよ。」

Educational Q&A
Bhīṣma teaches three mental observances essential to dharma: do not covet others’ wealth, maintain goodwill toward all beings, and trust that actions inevitably yield results (karma-phala). These inner attitudes shape ethical conduct and restrain mental wrongdoing.
In the Anuśāsana Parva’s instruction section, Bhīṣma addresses moral discipline, emphasizing that righteousness begins in the mind. He lists three inner practices to be maintained continually as part of ethical training.
