श्रीशक्रसंवादः — The Dialogue of Śrī
Lakṣmī) and Śakra (Indra
जो द्विज केवल ऋतुस्नानके समय ही पत्नीके साथ समागम करता, सदा सत्य बोलता और नित्य ज्ञानमें स्थित रहता है, वह सदा ब्रह्मचारी ही होता है
yo dvijaḥ kevalaṁ ṛtusnāna-kāle eva patnyā saha samāgamaṁ karoti, sadā satyaṁ vadati ca nityaṁ jñāne sthitaḥ bhavati, sa sadā brahmacārī eva bhavati
毗湿摩说道：“凡二生者（dvija）只在合宜之时亲近其妻，恒说真实之语，并稳固安住于智识之中——此人当被视为常住梵行（brahmacarya）之戒律。”

Educational Q&A
Brahmacarya is presented as disciplined living: regulated conjugal conduct (only at the proper season), unwavering truthfulness, and steady establishment in knowledge. Such integrated restraint and integrity make one 'ever a brahmacārī' even within household life.
In Śānti Parva, Bhīṣma instructs on dharma and right conduct. Here he defines a standard of self-restraint and ethical speech for a dvija, showing how inner discipline and regulated sexuality align with dharma.
