प्रतिग्रहभेदः — The Distinction between Giving and Accepting
Vṛṣādarbhī–Saptarṣi Dialogue
बल॑ धृतिर्विपाप्मा च पुण्यकृत् पावनस्तथा । पार्ष्णिक्षेमा समूहश्च॒ दिव्यसानुस्तथैव च
balaṃ dhṛtir vipāpmā ca puṇyakṛt pāvanas tathā | pārṣṇikṣemā samūhaś ca divyasānus tathaiva ca ||
ビーシュマは言った。「力と堅忍、罪なき清らかさ、功徳をなす者、浄める者、背後の安泰（確かな後護）、固く結ばれた衆（共同の支え）、そして神なる頂（高く天へ向かう到達）——これらもまた、説き明かされる吉祥の資質に数えられる。」
भीष्म उवाच
Educational Q&A
The verse lists ethical and spiritual excellences—strength guided by fortitude, sinlessness, meritorious conduct, purifying influence, reliable protection, cohesive support, and lofty (divine) attainment—implying that true power is inseparable from virtue and communal stability.
In Anuśāsana Parva, Bhīṣma continues his didactic discourse, enumerating auspicious qualities/benefits (as part of a larger catalog) to guide righteous living and the cultivation of character.
