भीष्म उवाच
Educational Q&A
The verse highlights the ethical psychology of shame and inner turmoil: when one’s identity and social self-image are suddenly overturned, the mind and senses become disturbed. It implicitly points toward the need for steadiness, self-governance, and reflection so that one’s conduct remains aligned with dharma even amid disorienting change.
In Bhishma’s narration, an eminent king witnesses himself changed into a woman. The shock produces embarrassment and intense worry; his entire inner life becomes absorbed in anxious thought, and his sensory and mental faculties are thrown into agitation.
