मानसतीर्थ-शौचप्रशंसा | Praise of the ‘Mental Tīrtha’ and the Marks of Purity
सदा द्वादशमासान् वै जुह्मानो जातवेदसम् | सरस्वती गोपयानो ब्रह्मचर्य समाचरन्
bhīṣma uvāca | sadā dvādaśa-māsān vai juhmāno jātavedasam | sarasvatīṁ gopayāno brahmacaryaṁ samācaran |
毗湿摩说道：若有人满十二个月不断向圣火——阇多韦达斯之阿耆尼（Agni Jātavedas）——献供，约束言语，修持梵行；并永远舍弃花鬘、栴檀香膏、蜂蜜与肉食——便能到达摩鲁特之界与因陀罗之界。

Educational Q&A
Sustained ritual discipline (daily fire-offerings), control of speech, and strict brahmacarya—supported by renunciation of sensual/ritual luxuries—are presented as powerful dharmic practices that generate merit leading to exalted heavenly attainments (Marut-world and Indra’s world).
In Bhishma’s instruction on dharma, he describes a specific year-long regimen of sacrifice and self-control and states its फल (result): the practitioner gains access to the celestial realms associated with the Maruts and Indra.
