Educational Q&A
Bhīṣma explains that what we call a person’s ‘purpose’ is often the dominant impulse that arises when desire or aversion generates suffering; the strongest pain-condition shapes the mind’s prevailing tendency (vṛtti), and that tendency functions as the operative aim (prayojana).
In Śānti Parva, Bhīṣma instructs the king on dharma and inner discipline. Here he analyzes how desire and hatred produce suffering and how, in response, a particular disposition becomes dominant—clarifying the psychological basis of human aims and conduct.
