Brāhmaṇa-pūjā, Haviḥ-dāna, and the Vāsudeva–Pṛthivī Saṃvāda
Chapter 34
इस प्रकार श्रीमह्याभारत अनुशासनपर्वके अन्तर्गत दानधर्मपर्वमें वीतहव्यका उपाख्याननागमक तीसवाँ अध्याय पूरा हुआ,सर्वान् देवान् नमस्यन्ति ये चैक वेदमाश्रिता: । श्रद्धधानाश्ष दान्ताश्न दुर्गाण्यतितरन्ति ते
sarvān devān namasyanti ye caika-vedam āśritāḥ | śraddadhānāś ca dāntāś ca durgāṇy atitaranti te ||
Bhīṣma berkata: Mereka yang menunduk hormat kepada semua dewa, dan berlindung pada satu Veda—dengan iman serta pengendalian diri—akan menyeberangi laluan yang sukar dan rintangan yang berbahaya. Ajaran ini menegaskan bahawa penghormatan, sandaran pada kitab suci, dan disiplin tingkah laku, apabila bersatu, menjadi jalan untuk melalui kesusahan hidup dengan selamat.

Educational Q&A
Reverence toward the divine, reliance on Vedic guidance, and inner discipline (faith and self-control) enable a person to overcome dangers and hardships; ethical steadiness is presented as the practical means of ‘crossing’ life’s difficult passages.
Bhīṣma concludes a didactic point within the Anuśāsana Parva’s discourse on dharma, stating that those who are devout, faithful, and self-restrained—grounded in Vedic authority—successfully pass through perilous situations.
