Educational Q&A
Faithful performance of one’s householder duties—within one’s capacity—leads to enduring spiritual reward, described as attaining imperishable realms after death.
In the Śānti Parva’s instruction on dharma, Bhīṣma continues advising about righteous conduct; here he cites received tradition (“we have heard”) to affirm the posthumous fruit of properly lived gṛhastha-dharma.
