संशय: सुगमस्तत्र दुर्गमस्तस्य निर्णय: । दृष्ट श्रुतमनन्तं हि यत्र संशयदर्शनम्

ບີສະມະໄດ້ກ່າວວ່າ: «ໃນເລື່ອງທັມມະ ການຍົກຄວາມສົງໄສຂຶ້ນນັ້ນງ່າຍ, ແຕ່ການຕັດສິນໃຫ້ແນ່ນອນກັບຍາກຢິ່ງ. ເພາະທັງສິ່ງທີ່ເຫັນໂດຍກົງ ແລະສິ່ງທີ່ໄດ້ຍິນຈາກອາຄະມະນັ້ນ ລ້ວນບໍ່ມີທີ່ສິ້ນສຸດ—ແລະໃນທັງສອງ ກໍມີເຫດໃຫ້ເກີດຄວາມສົງໄສເປັນນິດ»

Educational Q&A
Doubts about dharma arise easily, but resolving them is hard because both perception (what is seen) and tradition/scripture (what is heard) are vast and can each generate uncertainty; therefore ethical judgment requires careful discernment rather than quick conclusions.
In the Anushasana Parva’s instruction on dharma, Bhishma continues advising Yudhishthira, emphasizing the difficulty of settling moral questions when evidence from experience and from scriptural tradition is extensive and sometimes ambiguous.
