Translation

Disse Bhīṣma: Ele está além de toda contagem e de toda medida em seu próprio ser—supremamente excelente, formador dos nobres e perfeitamente puro. Seus propósitos já estão cumpridos; sua resolução é infalivelmente verdadeira. Concede o êxito e seus frutos aos seres segundo o que lhes é devido, e Ele mesmo é também o meio pelo qual a realização é alcançada.
