Educational Q&A

To cultivate constant reverence toward the unseen presiding forces of the cosmos—acknowledging that sacred order pervades all realms (below and beyond), and that humility and gratitude are integral to dharma.

In Bhīṣma’s instruction within the Śānti Parva, he utters a sweeping formula of salutation, extending homage to beings/powers located in Rasātala and to those who have gone beyond it, emphasizing universal veneration rather than a narrow, localized worship.
