मोक्षधर्मः — स्नेहपाशच्छेदः
Mokṣa-dharma: Cutting the Bonds of Attachment
न चाजन्नदोषान् निन्देत न गुणानभिपूजयेत् । शय्यासने विविक्ते च नित्यमेवाभिपूजयेत्
na cājñānadoṣān nindet na guṇān abhipūjayet | śayyāsane vivikte ca nityam evābhipūjayet ||
毗湿摩说：对乞食所得之食，不可指摘其过而加以贬斥——尤其是因无知而生的过失——也不可执著其美而加以称赞。至于卧与坐，当恒常珍重幽静独处，修习寂然离著之行。

Educational Q&A
Restrain speech and preference regarding alms-food—neither fault-finding nor indulgent praise—and cultivate a disciplined preference for seclusion in daily living (resting and sitting), supporting detachment and inner steadiness.
In the Shanti Parva’s instruction on dharma, Bhishma continues advising on the conduct of a restrained, renunciant-minded life: how one should relate to whatever food comes by begging and how one should choose solitude as a supportive environment for self-control.
