بھیشم نے کہا—اسی لازوال پُرش کی بھکتی کے ساتھ نِتّ پوجا کرنے، اسی کا دھیان کرنے، اسی کی ستوتی کرنے اور اسی کو نمسکار کرنے سے—جو پوجاری خود کو اس کی خدمت میں سپرد کرتا ہے—وہ تمام دکھوں سے آزاد ہو جاتا ہے۔

Educational Q&A

Single-pointed devotion to the Imperishable Supreme—expressed through worship, meditation, praise, and salutations—purifies the devotee and leads to freedom from sorrow.

In Anushasana Parva, Bhishma continues instructing Yudhishthira on dharma; here he emphasizes a devotional discipline centered on the Supreme Person, presenting it as a practical means to overcome suffering.
