Adhyātma–Adhibhūta–Adhidaivata Correspondences and the Triguṇa Lakṣaṇas (Śānti-parva 301)
शक््यं चाल्पेन कालेन शान्तिं प्राप्तुं गुणार्थिना । एवमुक्तेन कौन्तेय युक्तज्ञानेन मोक्षिणा
śakyaṃ cālpena kālena śāntiṃ prāptuṃ guṇārthinā | evam uktena kaunteya yukta-jñānena mokṣiṇā ||
ビーシュマは言った。「真の卓越を求める者には、短い時のうちに平安を得ることができる。クンティーの子よ、解脱の資格を備え、ここに説かれた知を具し、それを正しく生活に統合した求道者は、速やかに最高の寂静へ到達しうる。」

Educational Q&A
Bhīṣma teaches that supreme peace is not distant: a person who genuinely seeks inner excellence and is qualified for liberation can attain tranquility quickly when the taught knowledge is not merely heard but properly integrated into conduct and understanding.
In the Śānti Parva’s instruction section, Bhīṣma addresses the son of Kuntī and concludes a strand of teaching by affirming its practical efficacy: the knowledge just expounded, when rightly assimilated by a mokṣa-seeker, leads swiftly to peace.
