Haṃsa–Sādhya Saṃvāda: Satya, Dama, Kṣamā and the Discipline of Speech
गतानृषींस्तथा देवानसुरांश्व तथा गतान् । लोकादस्मात् परं लोकं यः पश्यति स मुच्यते,“कितने ही ऋषि देवता तथा असुर इस लोकसे परलोकको चले गये। जो सदा यह देखता और स्मरण रखता है वह मुक्त हो जाता है”
gatān ṛṣīn tathā devān asurāṁś ca tathā gatān | lokād asmāt paraṁ lokaṁ yaḥ paśyati sa mucyate ||
ພີດສະມະກ່າວວ່າ: «ຣິສີຫຼາຍອົງ, ເທວະຫຼາຍອົງ, ແມ່ນແຕ່ອະສຸຣະຫຼາຍຕົນ ກໍໄດ້ຈາກໂລກນີ້ໄປສູ່ໂລກອື່ນ. ຜູ້ໃດຮັກສາຄວາມຈິງນີ້ໃຫ້ຢູ່ໃນສາຍຕາເສມອ—ເຫັນການຜ່ານພົ້ນຂອງສັດທັງຫຼາຍຈາກນີ້ໄປສູ່ນັ້ນ—ຜູ້ນັ້ນຍ່ອມພົ້ນ».

Educational Q&A
Constant remembrance of impermanence—seeing that even sages, gods, and asuras pass from this world to the next—cultivates detachment and clarity, which leads toward liberation (mukti).
In the Shanti Parva’s instruction section, Bhishma advises Yudhishthira on dharma and inner freedom; here he underscores the universal fact of departure from this world as a contemplative aid for overcoming grief, pride, and attachment.
