Educational Q&A
The verse foregrounds ethical communication: disciplined, correct speech (śikṣā and proper svara) and respectful address (calling by name, approaching properly) are presented as prerequisites for conveying dharma effectively.
Bhishma describes a learned Brahmin whose trained, resonant speech fills the worlds; the Brahmin first addresses a dharma-knowing person by name and then begins his statement, introducing an ensuing instruction or dialogue.
