नारद–शुक संवादः
Impermanence, Svabhāva, and Śuka’s Resolve for Yoga
तस्मादुपासस्व परं महच्छुचि शिवं विमोक्षं विमल॑ पवित्रम् । क्षेत्र ज्ञात्वा पार्थिव ज्ञानयज्ञ- मुपास्य वै तत्त्वमृषिर्भविष्यसि
tasmād upāsasva paraṁ mahac chuci śivaṁ vimokṣaṁ vimalaṁ pavitram | kṣetraṁ jñātvā pārthiva jñānayajñam upāsya vai tattvam ṛṣir bhaviṣyasi ||
ゆえに、王よ、プラクリティを超えた至上の実在を礼拝せよ。広大にして清浄、吉祥にして無垢、衆生を浄め、みずから解脱そのものの相である。大地の主よ、「田」（クシェートラ）を悟り、知の供犠に帰依するなら、汝は必ずや真理を知るリシとなろう。

Educational Q&A
Bhīṣma teaches that liberation-oriented wisdom is the highest pursuit: worship/meditate on the Supreme beyond Prakṛti, understand the kṣetra (the field of embodied experience), and adopt jñānayajña—the disciplined ‘sacrifice’ of knowledge—so that one becomes a true knower of reality (tattvajña ṛṣi).
In Śānti Parva, Bhīṣma instructs the king on dharma and the path to peace after the war. Here he shifts from external duties to inner realization, advising the ruler to pursue contemplative knowledge and purity so that governance is rooted in truth and culminates in liberation.
