भीष्मस्योत्तरायणप्रतीक्षा तथा युधिष्ठिरागमनम् | Bhīṣma’s uttarāyaṇa moment and Yudhiṣṭhira’s arrival
मानवलोकमें जो भगवान् श्रीकृष्णकी शरण लेगा, उसे कीर्ति, विजय तथा उत्तम स्वर्गकी प्राप्ति होगी
mānavaloke yo bhagavān śrīkṛṣṇasya śaraṇaṃ gamiṣyati, sa kīrtiṃ vijayaṃ ca uttamaṃ svargaṃ ca prāpsyati.
Ишвара сказал: «Кто, пребывая в мире людей, прибегнет к прибежищу у Благословенного Господа Шри Кришны, тот обретёт славу и победу и достигнет высочайшего неба.»

Educational Q&A
Surrendering to Śrī Kṛṣṇa (śaraṇāgati) is presented as a dharmic refuge that yields both ethical-social fruit (kīrti: honorable reputation) and practical success (vijaya), culminating in a superior posthumous destiny (uttama svarga).
The speaker identified as Īśvara delivers a phala-śruti style assurance: in the human realm, one who takes Kṛṣṇa as their shelter is promised specific results—renown, victory, and attainment of the highest heaven—thereby encouraging devotion and reliance on divine guidance.
