Educational Q&A
Bhīṣma emphasizes that transmitting Vedic learning and maintaining Vedic rites are major obligations: society should be taught with the Brāhmaṇa (as the traditional custodian of Vedic knowledge) placed foremost, and Veda-study together with homa should be undertaken as a great, mandatory duty.
In the Śānti Parva’s instruction on dharma, Bhīṣma continues advising on proper conduct and social-religious responsibilities, highlighting the importance of Vedic education and ritual practice as foundational supports of order and righteousness.
