आनन्द: कर्मणां सिद्धि: प्रतिपत्ति: परा गति: | सात््विकस्य निमित्तानि भावान् संश्रयते स्मृति:
Ānandaḥ karmaṇāṁ siddhiḥ pratipattiḥ parā gatiḥ | sāttvikasya nimittāni bhāvān saṁśrayate smṛtiḥ ||
阿悉多言：“喜乐（ānanda）、安乐、诸业成就、正知正解之明达、以及至上归趣——此四者为萨埵性之所依。萨埵之人的忆念（smṛti）即依此而住；故其在梦中亦如醒时，所忆所行皆在喜乐等清明之境。”

Educational Q&A
A sāttvika person’s inner life is anchored in four wholesome supports—joy, successful right action, clear understanding, and orientation toward the highest goal. Because memory follows one’s dominant disposition, the sāttvika mind naturally recollects and gravitates toward these uplifting states even in dreams.
In the didactic discourse of Śānti Parva, Asita explains markers of the sāttvika temperament. He describes how mental impressions and recollection (smṛti) align with sattva, shaping both waking conduct and dream-experience toward constructive, dharmic ends.
