Agni–Soma Origin and the Brahmāgnīṣomīya Doctrine
सम्यगन्वीक्षतां बुद्धया शान्तयाध्यात्मनित्यया । ध्यानाभ्यासाभिरामाणां योडमृतत्वाय कल्पते
bhīṣma uvāca | samyag anvīkṣatāṃ buddhyā śāntayā adhyātma-nityayā | dhyānābhyāsābhirāmāṇāṃ yo 'mṛtatvāya kalpate |
جو لوگ باطن کی نِتّی تَفَکُّر میں قائم، پُرسکون عقل کے ساتھ حقیقت کی درست جستجو کرتے ہیں اور مراقبے کی مسلسل مشق میں لذت پاتے ہیں—ان کے لیے وہی (برتر تत्त्व) امرتتوا، یعنی لافانیّت، کا سبب بن جاتا ہے۔

Educational Q&A
Immortality (amṛtatva), understood as liberation beyond death, is attained by those who cultivate a peaceful, inwardly oriented intellect, conduct right inquiry into reality, and remain joyfully steady in meditative practice.
In the Shanti Parva’s instruction on liberation and inner discipline, Bhishma continues teaching that the decisive means is not external achievement but inner inquiry (anvīkṣā), tranquility of mind, and sustained meditation leading toward deathlessness.
