Educational Q&A
Roles involving communication and negotiation (like a messenger) require careful discernment and moral responsibility; those who act without proper scrutiny and who habitually harm living beings incur severe karmic consequences, described here as becoming hell-bound.
In the Anushasana Parva, Bhishma is instructing on dharma and proper conduct. Here he condemns indiscriminate, unexamined conduct—especially by those acting as envoys—and links persistent violence toward living beings with a fall into niraya (hell).
