Adhyātma–Adhibhūta–Adhidaivata Correspondences and the Triguṇa Lakṣaṇas (Śānti-parva 301)
सुरापाने च सक्तानां ब्राह्मणानां दुरात्मनाम् । गुरुदारप्रसक्तानां गतिं विज्ञाय चाशुभाम्,मदिरापानमें आसक्त दुरात्मा ब्राह्मणोंकी तथा गुरुपत्नीगामी मनुष्योंकी जो अशुभ गति होती है, उसका भी विचार करे
surāpāne ca saktānāṁ brāhmaṇānāṁ durātmanām | gurudāraprasaktānāṁ gatiṁ vijñāya cāśubhām ||
毗湿摩说道：“当思惟那些恶心婆罗门沉溺酒饮者，以及贪恋师妻者，将受何等不祥之归趣；须明了此等行径所招致的凶终。”

Educational Q&A
The verse urges moral discernment: understand that addiction to intoxicants and violating the sanctity of the teacher’s household lead to an inauspicious destiny; therefore one should avoid such acts and cultivate restraint.
In Shanti Parva’s dharma instruction, Bhishma is advising on right conduct by citing examples of grave transgressions—liquor-addiction and pursuing the guru’s wife—and warning of their harmful consequences.
