Adhyāya 214: Tapas Redefined—Perpetual Discipline, Hospitality, and the Ethics of Eating (तपः-निरूपणम्, विघसाशी-अतिथिप्रिय-धर्मः)
अत-४_-णकात चतुर्देशाधिकद्विशततमो< ध्याय: ब्रह्मचर्य तथा वैराग्यसे मुक्ति भीष्म उवाच अत्रोपायं प्रवक्ष्यामि यथावच्छास्त्रचक्षुषा । तत्त्वज्ञानाच्चरन् राजन प्राप्तुयात्परमां गतिम्
bhīṣma uvāca | atropāyaṃ pravakṣyāmi yathāvacchāstracakṣuṣā | tattvajñānāccaran rājan prāpnuyāt paramāṃ gatim ||
ビーシュマは言った。「王よ、いま我は、聖典（シャーストラ）の明らかな眼をもって、解脱に至る正しき方途を説こう。聖典に定められた務めを無執着の心で行い、真実の知（タットヴァ・ジュニャーナ）の光のうちに生きる者は、最高の境地に到達し得る。」
भीष्म उवाच
Educational Q&A
Liberation is approached by following the scriptural path: performing prescribed duties without attachment and cultivating knowledge of reality (tattva-jñāna), which together lead to the supreme goal (paramā gati).
In the Shanti Parva’s instruction section, Bhishma addresses the king (Yudhishthira) and begins outlining the correct, scripture-grounded means to moksha, framing the discussion around disciplined conduct and true knowledge.
