Shloka 1276
सदा द्वादशमासान् वै ब्रह्मलोकमवाप्नुयात् । जो बारह महीनोंतक प्रत्येक मास व्यतीत होनेपर तीसवें दिन एक बार भोजन करता और सदा शान्तभावसे रहता है, वह ब्रह्मलोकको प्राप्त होता है
sadā dvādaśa-māsān vai brahma-lokam avāpnuyāt |
ភីṣ្មៈមានព្រះបន្ទូលថា អ្នកណាដែលពេញមួយដប់ពីរខែ រក្សាវិន័យយ៉ាងតឹងរឹង—ក្នុងមួយខែ បរិភោគអាហារតែម្តងនៅថ្ងៃទីសាមសិប ហើយរស់នៅដោយចិត្តស្ងប់ស្ងាត់ជានិច្ច—អ្នកនោះបានទៅដល់ព្រហ្មលោក។

Educational Q&A
Sustained austerity (regulated eating) combined with steady inner calm is presented as a powerful dharmic discipline whose fruit is attainment of a higher spiritual realm (Brahmaloka).
In Bhishma’s instruction on dharma and religious observances, he describes the merit of a year-long vow: eating only once every month on the thirtieth day while remaining peaceful in mind, culminating in the reward of Brahmaloka.
