नारद-समङ्ग-संवादः — The Nārada–Samaṅga Dialogue on Fearlessness and Equanimity
कोई भी वस्तु क्यों न हो, जब उसके प्रति ममता कर ली जाती है--वह वस्तु अपनी मान ली जाती है, तब नष्ट होनेपर वही संतापका कारण बन जाती है ।।
na kāmān anuruddho ’to duḥkhaṁ kāmeṣu vai ratiḥ | prāptārtham upayuñjīta dharme kāmān visṛjayet ||
毗湿摩教诲：执著于感官之境，只会增添忧苦；对享乐的贪恋本身就是一种苦。因此，不应固执追逐欲望与享受的增长。凡所得财富与资具，当用于奉行达摩（dharma）；而放纵的欲乐，应当彻底舍弃。

Educational Q&A
Attachment to pleasures (kāmeṣu ratiḥ) inevitably produces suffering; therefore one should not intensify desires, but use whatever one gains for dharma and relinquish indulgent enjoyments.
In the Shanti Parva’s instruction on righteous living, Bhishma continues advising Yudhishthira on ethical discipline, warning against desire-driven life and directing the king toward dharma-centered use of wealth.
