Shloka 10
सर्वे सत्यव्रताश्वैव सर्वे तुल्या महर्षिभि: | श्रीक्षेव रमते तेषु धारयन्ति श्रियं च ते
sarve satyavratāś caiva sarve tulyā maharṣibhiḥ | śrīś caiva ramate teṣu dhārayanti śriyaṃ ca te ||
ସେମାନେ ସମସ୍ତେ ସତ୍ୟବ୍ରତୀ; ସମସ୍ତେ ମହର୍ଷିମାନଙ୍କ ସମାନ। ଶ୍ରୀ ସେମାନଙ୍କ ମଧ୍ୟରେ ରମଣ କରନ୍ତି, ଏବଂ ସେମାନେ ମଧ୍ୟ ଶ୍ରୀକୁ ଧାରଣ କରନ୍ତି।

Truthfulness and integrity are presented as foundational virtues: those who are steadfast in truth and comparable to sages naturally become fit abodes of Śrī (prosperity and auspiciousness). Prosperity is not merely possessed; it is sustained by righteous conduct.
Bhishma is characterizing a group being discussed as uniformly virtuous—truth-bound and sage-like—and therefore worthy of prosperity. The statement functions as a moral assessment that questions or frames how others should treat such beings.
