Adhyātma–Adhibhūta–Adhidaivata Correspondences and the Triguṇa Lakṣaṇas (Śānti-parva 301)
इन्द्रिय और इन्द्रियोंक विषय--ये सब-के-सब शरीरके भीतर स्थित हैं। मोक्ष परम दुर्लभ वस्तु है। इन सब बातोंको वेदोंके स्वाध्यायपूर्वक भलीभाँति समझ ले ।।
indriyāṇi ca indriyaviṣayāś ca sarve śarīrasya antar eva sthitāḥ. mokṣaḥ paramadurlabhaḥ. etad sarvaṃ vedānāṃ svādhyāyapūrvakaṃ samyag avagacchet. prāṇāpānau samānaṃ ca vyānodānau ca tattvataḥ; adhaś caivānilaṃ jñātvā pravahaṃ cānilaṃ punaḥ.
毗湿摩说道：诸根与诸根之境，皆在此身之内。解脱（mokṣa）极难得。故当依凭对吠陀的严谨自学，彻底明了这些道理。应如实知诸生命之气流——普拉那（prāṇa）、阿帕那（apāna）、萨玛那（samāna）、维亚那（vyāna）、乌达那（udāna）——并知下行之风，又知名为“普拉瓦哈”（pravaha）的上行之风。由此七种风（vāyu）之分，又生诸多细分；由此观析，便能领会诸仙所传通向解脱的众多道路。

Educational Q&A
Liberation requires disciplined understanding: recognize that sensory experience is rooted within the body-mind system, and study the Vedic and yogic analysis of the vital airs (prāṇas). Mastery begins with clear knowledge of how prāṇa and the other vāyus function, supporting restraint and inner inquiry aimed at mokṣa.
In the Śānti Parva’s instruction section, Bhīṣma continues advising Yudhiṣṭhira on the means to peace and release. Here he shifts to an inner, yogic framework—mapping senses and vital winds—presenting a technical basis for self-control and contemplative practice.
