Brāhmaṇa-pūjā, Haviḥ-dāna, and the Vāsudeva–Pṛthivī Saṃvāda
Chapter 34
इस प्रकार श्रीमह्याभारत अनुशासनपर्वके अन्तर्गत दानधर्मपर्वमें वीतहव्यका उपाख्याननागमक तीसवाँ अध्याय पूरा हुआ,सर्वान् देवान् नमस्यन्ति ये चैक वेदमाश्रिता: । श्रद्धधानाश्ष दान्ताश्न दुर्गाण्यतितरन्ति ते
sarvān devān namasyanti ye caika-vedam āśritāḥ | śraddadhānāś ca dāntāś ca durgāṇy atitaranti te ||
ビーシュマは言った。すべての神々に礼拝し、ただ一つのヴェーダに帰依する者——信と自制を備えた者——は、困難な渡り口と危険な障碍を越えてゆく。この教えは、敬虔、聖典への拠り所、そして節度ある行いが相まって、人生の艱難を安らかに渡り切る手段となることを示している。
भीष्म उवाच
Reverence toward the divine, reliance on Vedic guidance, and inner discipline (faith and self-control) enable a person to overcome dangers and hardships; ethical steadiness is presented as the practical means of ‘crossing’ life’s difficult passages.
Bhīṣma concludes a didactic point within the Anuśāsana Parva’s discourse on dharma, stating that those who are devout, faithful, and self-restrained—grounded in Vedic authority—successfully pass through perilous situations.
