The Prelude to Questioning Bhīṣma on the Bed of Arrows
तस्माद् वक्त व्यमेवेदं त्वयावश्यमशेषत: । राजन्! आप इन राजाओंको उसी प्रकार उत्तम नीतिका उपेदश करें
tasmād vaktavyam evedaṃ tvayāvaśyam aśeṣataḥ | rājan! āp imān rājāno'pi tathā uttama-nīti-kopadeśaṃ kuryāḥ, yathā pitā sva-putraṃ sad-dharme śikṣayati | tvaṃ devān ṛṣīṃś ca sadā upāsitavān asi; tasmāt tvayāvaśyaṃ sarva-dharmopadeśaḥ kartavyaḥ |
故此，王者啊，汝必当无遗无缺地宣说此教。正如父亲以正法教子，汝亦当以至上之治道与伦理之则，训诫诸王。汝素常敬事诸天、礼奉仙圣（ṛṣi），是以更当传授圆满无缺之法（dharma）教诲。

Educational Q&A
A king who has cultivated reverence for gods and sages is obligated to teach dharma fully—especially the highest standards of ethical governance—guiding other rulers as a father guides a son.
Vāyudeva addresses a king and urges him to deliver complete instruction on dharma and sound policy to the assembled kings, grounding the authority to teach in the king’s lifelong devotion and respect for divine and sage traditions.
