Shloka 28
Mokṣa–Saṃnyāsa–Tyāga–Guṇa-Vibhāga (Renunciation, Relinquishment, and the Three Guṇas) — Mahābhārata 6, Bhīṣma-parva
सम॑ पश्यन् हि सर्वत्र समवस्थितमी श्वरम् । न हिनस्त्यात्मना55त्मानं ततो याति परां गतिम्
samaṁ paśyan hi sarvatra samavasthitam īśvaram | na hinasty ātmanātmānaṁ tato yāti parāṁ gatim ||
ਕਿਉਂਕਿ ਜੋ ਮਨੁੱਖ ਹਰ ਥਾਂ ਸਮਭਾਵ ਨਾਲ ਵੱਸਦੇ ਪ੍ਰਭੂ ਨੂੰ ਸਮਦ੍ਰਿਸ਼ਟੀ ਨਾਲ ਵੇਖਦਾ ਹੈ, ਉਹ ਆਪਣੇ ਹੀ ਹੱਥੋਂ ਆਪਣੇ ਆਪ ਨੂੰ ਨੁਕਸਾਨ ਨਹੀਂ ਪਹੁੰਚਾਂਦਾ; ਇਸ ਲਈ ਉਹ ਪਰਮ ਗਤੀ ਨੂੰ ਪ੍ਰਾਪਤ ਕਰਦਾ ਹੈ।

Educational Q&A
To cultivate equal vision by recognizing the same Lord present in all, which prevents inner self-destruction (through ego, hatred, and delusion) and leads to the highest spiritual attainment.
In the midst of the Kurukṣetra setting, the teaching turns from external conflict to inner discipline: the aspirant is urged to see the divine equally in all beings and thereby avoid self-harm, progressing toward liberation.
