Educational Q&A
Bhīṣma teaches that dāna (charitable giving)—specifically of marriage-related goods, garments, and support for dependents/servants—is a dharmic act that yields great merit, described here as leading the donor toward heaven.
In the Anuśāsana Parva’s instruction on dharma, Bhīṣma continues advising King Yudhiṣṭhira on the fruits of various forms of charity, highlighting particular donations and their auspicious spiritual outcome.
