ya imaṁ śṛṇuyān nityaṁ yaś cāpi parikīrtayet | sa śubhān prāpnute lokān sadācāra-vratān nṛpa ||
بھیشم نے کہا—اے نریشور! جو اس بیان کو روزانہ سنتا ہے اور جو اسے بلند آواز سے پڑھ کر سناتا بھی ہے، وہ سداچار پر قائم ورتوں کی قوت سے مبارک لوکوں کو حاصل کرتا ہے۔

Educational Q&A
Regular listening to and recitation of a dharmic narrative is itself a disciplined practice; when grounded in sadācāra (good conduct) and vrata (ethical observance), it yields spiritual merit culminating in attainment of auspicious realms.
At the close of the discourse, Bhishma gives a phalaśruti—an assurance of the fruit of the teaching—telling the king that daily hearing and proclaiming this account leads to blessed destinations by the power of righteous vows and conduct.
