सत्येन सूर्यस्तपति सत्येनाग्नि: प्रदीप्यते । सत्येन मरुतो वान्ति सर्व सत्ये प्रतिेष्ठितम्
satyena sūryas tapati satyenāgniḥ pradīpyate | satyena maruto vānti sarvaṃ satye pratiṣṭhitam ||
ພີດສະມະກ່າວວ່າ: ໂດຍຄວາມຈິງ ຕາເວັນຈຶ່ງໃຫ້ຄວາມຮ້ອນ; ໂດຍຄວາມຈິງ ໄຟຈຶ່ງລຸກໂຊນ. ໂດຍຄວາມຈິງ ລົມຈຶ່ງພັດ. ແທ້ຈິງແລ້ວ ທຸກສິ່ງທຸກຢ່າງຕັ້ງຢູ່ເທິງຄວາມຈິງ.

Educational Q&A
Truth (satya) is the foundational support of dharma and of the world’s order; the verse illustrates this by linking the functioning of cosmic forces—sun, fire, and wind—to truth as their sustaining principle.
In Anuśāsana Parva, Bhīṣma instructs Yudhiṣṭhira on righteous conduct. Here he emphasizes satya as a supreme ethical commitment, portraying it as the basis on which all stability and right order rest.
