प्रतिग्रहभेदः — The Distinction between Giving and Accepting
Vṛṣādarbhī–Saptarṣi Dialogue
पूर्णे वर्षमहस्रान्ते स कृत्वा दुष्करं तप: । कालधर्मपरीतात्मा निधनं समुपागत:
pūrṇe varṣasahasrānte sa kṛtvā duṣkaraṃ tapaḥ | kāladharmaparītātmā nidhanaṃ samupāgataḥ ||
ພີດສະມະ ກ່າວວ່າ: «ເມື່ອຄົບພັນປີແລ້ວ, ພຣະອົງໄດ້ປະຕິບັດຕະປະອັນຫນັກໜ່ວງ; ແລະເມື່ອຈິດໃຈຖືກຫໍ້ຫຸ້ມໂດຍກົດແຫ່ງກາລະ (ເວລາ), ທ່ານກໍເຖິງການສິ້ນຊີວິດ.»

Educational Q&A
Even the most formidable austerity does not exempt one from the dominion of Kāla; the ordained law of Time culminates in death, underscoring impermanence and the limits of human striving.
Bhīṣma reports that after completing a thousand-year period of severe tapas, the person being discussed—overcome by the inevitable course of Time—reaches his end (dies).
