मातापितृगुरुपूजा-प्रशंसा
Praise of Venerating Mother, Father, and Teacher
ब्रह्मलोकं गुरोरव॑त्त्या नियमेन तरिष्यसि । यदि तुम इन तीनोंकी सेवामें कोई भूल नहीं करोगे तो तीनों लोकोंको जीत लोगे। पिताकी सेवासे इस लोकको
brahmalokaṁ guror avatyā niyamena tariṣyasi |
毗湿摩说道：“以戒律之守持与对师长的恭敬奉事，你将超越乃至梵天界（Brahmaloka）。若你事奉此三者——父、母与师（guru）——毫无过失，便如同征服三界：事父则得此世成就；事母则得来世；依规奉事师长，则超越乃至梵天界。”

Educational Q&A
Unfailing service to father, mother, and guru—especially disciplined service to the guru—is presented as a complete dharmic path that yields success here, merit in the hereafter, and even transcendence of the highest heavenly attainments.
In the Shanti Parva’s instruction section, Bhishma continues advising Yudhishthira on dharma, emphasizing the ethical hierarchy of obligations and the spiritual power of devoted service to one’s parents and teacher.
