Educational Q&A
Dharma is grounded in the remembered teachings and living traditions of authoritative sages and lineages; Bhīṣma reinforces his instruction by citing respected names and ancestral schools as sources of reliable ethical knowledge.
Bhīṣma continues enumerating notable sages and lineage-holders, presenting them as exemplars or authorities whose traditions support the dharmic guidance he is conveying in the Anuśāsana Parva.
