Inquiry into Śreyas, Dharma, and Karma
सप्तैव संहारमुपप्लवानि सम्भाव्य संतिष्ठति जीवलोके । ततोडव्ययं स्थानमनन्तमेति देवस्य विष्णोरथ ब्रह्मणश्न | शेषस्य चैवाथ नरस्य चैव देवस्य विष्णो: परमस्य चैव
saptāiva saṃhāram upaplavāni sambhāvya saṃtiṣṭhati jīvaloke | tato 'vyayaṃ sthānam anantam eti devasya viṣṇor atha brahmaṇaś ca | śeṣasya caivātha narasya caiva devasya viṣṇoḥ paramasya caiva ||
毗湿摩说：既已了知七世界皆属坏灭、动摇不安，彼瑜伽行者便于有情世间安住不动，离忧离惑。其后，当此身终尽之时，他证得不坏而无穷之住处——超越处所、时间与对象的一切限量。有人认此住处为湿婆之凯拉萨；有人认之为毗湿奴之毗昆吒；有人认之为梵天之真界（萨提耶界）；亦有人说是舍沙（阿难陀）之境；有人称之为个我之至上归宿；更有人说那正是至上、遍一切处、具觉知之梵（Brahman）的自性光明。

Educational Q&A
Recognize the impermanence of all cosmic realms, live steadily without grief or delusion, and aim for the imperishable, infinite reality—variously named by traditions but pointing to the highest liberation.
Bhīṣma instructs on the yogin’s outlook: seeing even the seven worlds as perishable, the yogin remains composed in embodied life and, at death, attains the supreme abode, which different schools describe as the highest divine realm or as Brahman itself.
