Translation
Sinabi ni Bhīṣma: “Kapag ang kaalaman, ang bunga, ang dapat malaman, at ang gawa—ang lahat ng ito—ay dumating sa wakas, ang natitira bilang bungang dapat makamtan ay unawain mong siya ang Paramātman: ang Kataas-taasang Sarili na may anyo ng kaalaman, nananatiling laganap at nakasalig sa mismong ‘dapat malaman’.”
