Shloka 31
गत: स परम लोकं तव पुत्रो न संशय: । 'भद्रे! धैर्य धारण करो। शुभदर्शने! शोक न करो। तुम्हारे पुत्र भीष्म अत्यन्त उत्तम लोकमें गये हैं, इसमें संशय नहीं है || ३० ई ।। वसुरेष महातेजा: शापदोषेण शोभने
gataḥ sa parama-lokaṁ tava putro na saṁśayaḥ | bhadre dhairyaṁ dhāraṇaṁ kuru | śubha-darśane śokaṁ na kuru |
毗舍波耶那说道：“你的儿子确已往至至上之界——毫无疑虑。贤淑的夫人啊，持守你的勇毅；吉相端严者啊，莫再悲伤。你的儿子毗湿摩（Bhīṣma）已得至殊胜之境。”

The verse teaches composure in bereavement: grief should be restrained through dhairya (steadfast courage), especially when the departed has attained a noble or supreme state due to righteous life and merit.
Vaiśaṃpāyana consoles a grieving mother, affirming that her son—identified here as Bhīṣma—has certainly reached the highest, excellent realm, and urges her to hold courage and abandon sorrow.
