Educational Q&A
All categories of beings—divine, human, and non-human—originate from the Supreme imperishable source. This supports an ethical outlook in which dharma aligns with the cosmic order established by that unchanging Lord.
In the Shanti Parva’s instruction, Bhishma continues his discourse on higher principles by describing the Supreme as the creator of various classes of beings, situating moral and social order within a broader cosmological framework.
