Shloka 12
दीर्घदर्शी–दीर्घसूत्र–संप्रतिपत्तिमान् आख्यानम्
The Parable of Foresight, Procrastination, and Presence of Mind
अन्रैतदाहुराचार्या: पापस्य परिमोक्षणे | त्रयीं विद्यामवेक्षेत तथोपासीत वै द्विजान्
anṛtaṃ tad āhur ācāryāḥ pāpasya parimokṣaṇe | trayīṃ vidyām avekṣeta tathopāsīta vai dvijān |
ビーシュマは言った。「師たちは、これこそ罪からの解放の手立てであると宣言した。すなわち三ヴェーダの学知に心を向け、しかるべく『二度生まれし者』（バラモン）に奉仕することである。」

Educational Q&A
Release from sin is sought through disciplined return to sacred learning (the three Vedas) and through respectful service and honoring of the dvijas (Brahmins), emphasizing humility, study, and alignment with dharma as a remedy for wrongdoing.
In the Shanti Parva’s instruction on righteous conduct and governance, Bhishma advises the king on how sins—especially those arising from unrighteous actions—may be cleansed: by Vedic study and by attending upon Brahmins, who represent the tradition of dharma and sacred authority.
