Atithi-prāpti and the Brāhmaṇa’s Deliberation on Triadic Dharma (अतिथिप्राप्तिः धर्मत्रयविचारश्च)
एते योगविदो मुख्या: सांख्यज्ञानविशारदा: । आचार्या धर्मशास्त्रेषु मोक्षधर्मप्रवर्तका:,'ये प्रमुख योगवेत्ता, सांख्यज्ञान-विशारद, धर्मशास्त्रोंके आचार्य तथा मोक्षधर्मके प्रवर्तक हैं
ete yogavido mukhyāḥ sāṅkhyajñānaviśāradāḥ | ācāryā dharmaśāstreṣu mokṣadharmapravartakāḥ ||
毗湿摩波耶那说道：“他们是瑜伽之道的最上知者，深谙数论（Sāṅkhya）之智；为《法论》（Dharmaśāstra）之师，并为解脱之法（mokṣa-dharma）开其端、启其行者。”

Educational Q&A
The verse legitimizes mokṣa-oriented instruction by grounding it in recognized authorities: exemplary yogins who also possess Sāṅkhya’s discriminative insight and mastery of Dharmaśāstra. Liberation is presented not as a private whim but as a disciplined dharma transmitted by qualified teachers.
Vaiśampāyana is describing a group of eminent sages/teachers, characterizing them as leading experts in Yoga and Sāṅkhya and as authoritative expounders of Dharmaśāstra who have established and propagated mokṣa-dharma teachings within the Śānti Parva’s broader instruction on peace and liberation.
