Shloka 3
तृष्णाक्षय-उपदेशः
Instruction on the Cessation of Craving
अपवर्गेडथ संत्यागे बुद्धी च कृतनिश्चया: । ब्रहिष्ठा ब्रह्मभूताश्च ब्रह्मण्येव कृतालया:
apavarge 'tha saṃtyāge buddhī ca kṛtaniścayāḥ | brahiṣṭhā brahmabhūtāś ca brahmaṇy eva kṛtālayāḥ ||
Wika ni Kapila: “Ang kanilang pag-unawa ay matatag na nakapasiya sa paglaya at sa pagtalikod. Nakatindig sa pinakamataas na katotohanan, at naging isa sa Brahman, sa Brahman lamang nila itinatag ang kanilang tahanan.”

Educational Q&A
Liberation is attained through firm discernment rooted in renunciation; the realized person becomes ‘brahmabhūta’—established in the supreme—and abides inwardly in Brahman alone, beyond worldly supports.
In the Shanti Parva’s philosophical instruction, Kapila describes the state of accomplished seekers: their intellect is decisively oriented to moksha and renunciation, culminating in Brahman-realization and unwavering absorption in the highest reality.
