Educational Q&A
Bhishma teaches that the Veda-knowers affirm an ‘ekāyana’ (single-aim) dharma: sincere spiritual practice, even when shaped by differing levels of understanding, can lead all aspirants to the supreme goal.
In the Shanti Parva’s instruction on dharma and liberation, Bhishma continues his counsel by citing the testimony of Vedic authorities: diverse modes of upāsanā, when aligned to one’s capacity and knowledge, culminate in the highest attainment.
