Shloka 11
Vivāha-dharma: Kanyā-pradāna, Śulka, and Pāṇigrahaṇa-niṣṭhā (अनुशासन पर्व, अध्याय ४४)
आकार गुरुपव्न्यास्तु स विज्ञाय भृगूद्वह: । निजग्राह महातेजा योगेन बलवत् प्रभो
ākāraṃ guru-patnyās tu sa vijñāya bhṛgūdvahaḥ | nijagrāha mahātejā yogena balavat prabho ||
ビーシュマは言った。師の妻の姿と振る舞いを見て、ブリグ族の第一人者ヴィプラはその胸中を悟った。ゆえに大いなる光威を備えたその聖仙は、ヨーガの力によって彼女を力強く制し、不都合を未然に断ってダルマを守ったのである。

Educational Q&A
One should read conduct and intentions carefully and act to prevent adharma, especially where the honor of the guru’s household is involved. Spiritual power and self-mastery are portrayed as tools for restraint and protection, not indulgence.
Bhīṣma narrates that a Bhṛgu-sage, noticing the gestures and demeanor of the preceptor’s wife and discerning her intent, used yogic power to restrain and control her—forcefully if necessary—so that misconduct would not proceed.
