Mahāvasu’s Fall by Speech-Error and Release through Devotion (अज-विवादः वसोः शापः विमोचनं च)
इतिहासं च कार्त्स्न्येन राजशास्त्राणि वा विभो । गुरवे दक्षिणां दत्त्वा समावृत्तो महामुनि:
itihāsaṃ ca kārtsnyena rājaśāstrāṇi vā vibho | gurave dakṣiṇāṃ dattvā samāvṛtto mahāmuniḥ ||
«ໂອ ຜູ້ມີອຳນາດ, ເມື່ອລາວໄດ້ຊຳນານອິຕິຫາສະ (ເລື່ອງລາວດັ້ງເດີມ) ຢ່າງຄົບຖ້ວນ ແລະຄຳພີວ່າດ້ວຍການປົກຄອງກະສັດ (ຣາຊະສາດຕຣະ) ແລ້ວ, ມະຫາມຸນີນັ້ນໄດ້ຖວາຍທັກຊິນາ (ຄ່າຄູຕາມພິທີ) ແດ່ອາຈານຂອງຕົນ ແລ້ວຈຶ່ງກັບຄືນ—ເປັນອັນສຳເລັດວິໄນແຫ່ງການສຶກສາ.»

Educational Q&A
True learning is shown not only by mastering knowledge—here, itihāsa and rājaśāstra—but also by ethical completion of discipleship: honoring the teacher through dakṣiṇā and returning as a disciplined, socially responsible graduate (samāvṛtta).
Bhīṣma describes a great sage who has thoroughly studied traditional narratives and the science of kingship under a guru; after giving the customary teacher’s fee, he formally concludes his training and returns.
