Adhyātma–Adhibhūta–Adhidaivata Correspondences and the Triguṇa Lakṣaṇas (Śānti-parva 301)
देहदोषांस्तथा ज्ञात्वा तेषां दुःखं च तत्त्वतः । देहविक्लवतां चैव सम्यग विज्ञाय तत्त्वतः
dehadoṣāṁs tathā jñātvā teṣāṁ duḥkhaṁ ca tattvataḥ | dehaviklavtāṁ caiva samyag vijñāya tattvataḥ ||
毗湿摩说道：既已洞见此身所固有的过失，也当如实了知由此而生的苦；同样，还应当依真实相，正确辨明身体的脆弱与躁动不安。此教诲中，毗湿摩劝人以清明之眼而行合乎法的离著：不自欺地看见肉身的局限及其所致之痛，方能成就安定、克制与更高的辨慧。

Educational Q&A
To cultivate truthful discernment about the body: recognize its inherent defects, understand the suffering that follows from them, and clearly perceive bodily frailty. This realism supports ethical steadiness and detachment, reducing delusion-driven attachment.
In Shanti Parva, Bhishma continues instructing Yudhishthira on dharma and the path to peace after the war. Here he emphasizes reflective insight into embodied suffering as part of a broader teaching on restraint, dispassion, and right understanding.
