Gautama’s Flight, the Enchanted Grove, and the Arrival of Rājadharma
Nāḍījaṅgha
सत्य॑ नामाव्ययं नित्यमविकारि तथैव च । सर्वधर्माविरुद्धेन योगेनैतदवाप्यते
satyaṁ nāmāvyayaṁ nityam avikāri tathaiva ca | sarvadharmāviruddhena yogenaitad avāpyate ||
毗湿摩说道:“所谓真实者,不坏、常住、无变。此真实当以不违一切法(达摩)的行持之瑜伽而得——以恒常履行职责、与正法相应而得。”
भीष्म उवाच
Truth (satya) is characterized as imperishable, eternal, and unchanging; it is realized through a disciplined way of life (yoga) grounded in duty and conduct that harmonizes with dharma rather than contradicting it.
In the Shanti Parva’s instruction section, Bhishma continues advising Yudhishthira on righteous living and higher principles, defining the nature of Truth and indicating the practical path—dharma-aligned discipline—by which it is attained.
