मोक्षधर्मः — स्नेहपाशच्छेदः
Mokṣa-dharma: Cutting the Bonds of Attachment
अनुरोधविरोधाभ्यां सम: स्यादचलो ध्रुव: । सुकृतं दुष्कृतं चोभे नानुरुध्येत कर्मणा
anurodha-virodhābhyāṃ samaḥ syād acalo dhruvaḥ | sukṛtaṃ duṣkṛtaṃ cobhe nānurudhyet karmaṇā ||
毗湿摩说：面对他人的请求与反对，当常住平等心，不动不摇，坚定如常。并且在行为上，不可成为“随福”或“随罪”之人——即不因贪求报偿而行，也不因邪念冲动而行——而应以坚固的内在平衡而行事。
भीष्म उवाच
Educational Q&A
Maintain equanimity when others urge or oppose you, and let your conduct be steady and principled—neither driven by the lure of merit/reward nor pulled into sin; act from inner steadiness rather than external pressure.
In the Shanti Parva’s dharma-instruction setting, Bhishma is advising on right conduct and mental discipline, emphasizing steadiness of mind and independence from social pressure and from the twin pulls of craving for merit and inclination toward wrongdoing.
