मानसतीर्थ-शौचप्रशंसा | Praise of the ‘Mental Tīrtha’ and the Marks of Purity
सदा द्वादशमासान् वै सप्तलोकान् स पश्यति । जो लगातार बारह महीनोंतक उन्नीसवें दिन एक बार भोजन करता है, वह भी भू आदि सातों लोकोंका दर्शन करता है
sadā dvādaśamāsān vai saptalokān sa paśyati |
毗湿摩说道：“整整十二个月，他得以观见七界。”在此语境中，这是持守节制饮食之誓的灵性果报：若有人连续十二个月，只在第十九日进食一次，也能见到自布胡界（Bhū-loka）等七个世界。

Educational Q&A
Sustained self-restraint (tapas) practiced as a vow is portrayed as generating extraordinary spiritual merit, culminating in expanded perception—symbolized here by ‘seeing the seven worlds,’ i.e., insight into the full cosmic hierarchy.
Bhishma is instructing on vows and their fruits. In this line he states the result of a particular long-term discipline: over the course of a year, the practitioner is said to gain vision of the seven realms.
