Shloka 2
भीष्म उवाच ब्राह्मणानां परिभव सादयेदपि देवता: । ब्राह्मणांस्तु नमस्कृत्य युधिष्ठिर न रिष्यते
bhīṣma uvāca | brāhmaṇānāṁ paribhavaḥ sādayed api devatāḥ | brāhmaṇāṁs tu namaskṛtya yudhiṣṭhira na riṣyate |
毗湿摩说道：“噢，由提施提罗，羞辱婆罗门，甚至能使诸天陷入忧苦与败落；但凡向婆罗门俯首致敬，并以恭敬谦卑相待者，永不遭祸。”
भीष्म उवाच
Educational Q&A
Bhishma teaches that contempt toward Brahmins is a grave adharma with far-reaching consequences—so serious that it can trouble even the gods—whereas respectful salutation and humble conduct toward them is presented as a safeguard from harm.
In the Anushasana Parva’s instruction section, Bhishma continues advising King Yudhishthira on righteous conduct. Here he emphasizes proper behavior toward Brahmins, warning against insulting them and recommending reverence and humility.
