उपवासविधि-प्रश्नः
Inquiry into the Discipline of Fasting
न गुरावकृतप्रज्ञे शक््यं शिष्येण वर्तितुम् । गुरोहिं दीर्घदर्शित्वं यत् तच्छिष्यस्य भारत
bhīṣma uvāca | na gurāv akṛtaprajñe śakyaṃ śiṣyeṇa vartitum | guroḥ hi dīrghadarśitvaṃ yat tac chiṣyasya bhārata |
ພີດສະມະກ່າວວ່າ: «ສິດບໍ່ອາດຢູ່ໃຕ້ວິໄນຂອງຄູອາຈານໄດ້ຢ່າງຖືກຕ້ອງ ຫາກການຕັດສິນໃຈຂອງຄູຍັງບໍ່ສຸກງອມ. ໂອ ພາຣະຕະ, ຄວາມເບິ່ງໄກຂອງຄູອາຈານເປັນຢ່າງໃດ ຄຸນນະພາບນັ້ນກໍສະທ້ອນໃນສິດດ້ວຍ—ເມື່ອຜູ້ໃຫຍ່ເບິ່ງໄກ ຜູ້ນ້ອຍກໍເບິ່ງໄກ».
भीष्म उवाच
Educational Q&A
Obedience and disciplined following become untenable when the guide (guru/elder) lacks mature discernment; true farsightedness in leadership naturally shapes and elevates the follower’s outlook.
In the Anuśāsana discourse, Bhishma continues instructing Yudhiṣṭhira on right conduct and social ethics, emphasizing how the quality of an elder’s judgment determines the stability and moral formation of those who follow.
