यथा हाग्निर्यथा वायुर्यथा भूमिर्यथा जलम् | यथा च खं तथा शुद्धों भविता ते सुतो महान्,'जैसे अग्नि, जैसे वायु, जैसे पृथ्वी, जैसे जल और जैसे आकाश शुद्ध है, तुम्हारा पुत्र भी वैसा ही शुद्ध एवं महान् होगा

Educational Q&A
Moral purity and greatness are portrayed as qualities harmonizing with the fundamental purity of the elements; true nobility is ‘stainless’—free from inner corruption—like fire, wind, earth, water, and space.
Bhīṣma, speaking in the Śānti Parva’s instructional setting, offers a benedictive assurance/prophecy to an addressed listener that their son will be exceptionally pure and great, using the five elements as a standard of natural purity.
