व्यास उवाच
Educational Q&A
One should treat liberating knowledge (jñāna) as the sole refuge for attaining inner peace, remaining steady through both uplift and decline in worldly conditions—like holding a raft while crossing a turbulent ocean.
In the Śānti Parva’s instructional discourse, Vyāsa continues a didactic passage: he urges the listener to navigate saṁsāra’s fluctuations by grasping the ‘raft of knowledge’ and relying on discernment rather than external circumstances.
