अनुशासनपर्व अध्याय ९३ — तपस्, सदोपवास, विघसाशन, अतिथिप्रियता
Austerity, regulated fasting, residual-eating, and hospitality
कव्यानि ज्ञाननिछेभ्य: प्रतिष्ठाप्पानि भारत । तत्र ये ब्राह्मणान् केचिन्न निन्दन्ति हि ते नरा:
kavyāni jñānaniṣṭhebhyaḥ pratiṣṭhāpyāni bhārata | tatra ye brāhmaṇān kecin na nindanti hi te narāḥ ||
ビーシュマは言った。「バーラタの子よ、シュラーダッダ（śrāddha）の供物は、霊的知（jñāna）に堅く立つブラーフマナ（brāhmaṇa）の前に、しかるべき作法で供えられるべきである。ブラーフマナをそしらぬ者こそ、人々の中で真にすぐれた者である。」
भीष्म उवाच
Educational Q&A
Śrāddha offerings should be given with discernment to Brahmins who are established in spiritual knowledge, and ethical speech is emphasized: refraining from disparaging Brahmins is presented as a mark of true nobility.
In Bhishma’s instruction to Yudhishthira in the Anushasana Parva, he lays down norms for ancestral rites and social-religious conduct, highlighting whom to honor with śrāddha food and praising those who avoid slander of Brahmins.
