Adhyātma–Adhibhūta–Adhidaivata Correspondences and the Triguṇa Lakṣaṇas (Śānti-parva 301)
सर्वे विप्राश्ष॒ देवाश्ष तथा शमविदो जना: । ब्रह्माणं परमं देवमनन्तं परमच्युतम्
sarve viprāś ca devāś ca tathā śamavido janāḥ | brahmāṇaṃ paramaṃ devam anantaṃ paramācyutam ||
సర్వ బ్రాహ్మణులు, దేవతలు, అలాగే శమాన్ని తెలిసిన జనులు—అందరూ పరమదేవుడైన, అనంతుడైన, పరమ అచ్యుతుడైన బ్రహ్మను వందిస్తారు.

That the highest object of reverence is the Supreme—Brahman—described as infinite and unfailing (Acyuta), acknowledged across spiritual and cosmic orders: brāhmaṇas, gods, and disciplined seekers of tranquillity.
In Śānti Parva, Bhīṣma continues his instruction on dharma and higher truth, emphasizing a shared recognition of the Supreme principle—Brahman/Paramadeva—by diverse authorities and realized practitioners.
