अम्बा–राम–भीष्म संवादः
Amba–Rama–Bhishma Dialogue on Vow and Refuge
स मामभिगतं दृष्टवा जामदग्न्य: प्रतापवान् | प्रतिजग्राह तां पूजां वचनं चेदमब्रवीत्,मुझे अपने समीप आया हुआ देख प्रतापी परशुरामजीने मेरी दी हुई पूजा स्वीकार की और इस प्रकार कहा
sa mām abhigataṁ dṛṣṭvā jāmadagnyaḥ pratāpavān | pratijagrāha tāṁ pūjāṁ vacanaṁ cedam abravīt |
毗湿摩说道：他见我前来，那威势赫赫的阇摩达格尼之子（帕罗修罗摩）便受纳了我所奉上的敬礼，继而开口说道——由此揭开一场沉重的对答：师徒之间的敬重，将与职责的要求及逼近的冲突正面相逢。
भीष्म उवाच
Educational Q&A
Even when a confrontation is imminent, dharma begins with maryādā—proper conduct: receiving a guest with honor and responding with measured speech. Respectful protocol does not erase disagreement, but it frames it ethically.
Bhīṣma approaches Paraśurāma (Jāmadagnya) and offers him due honor. Paraśurāma accepts the reception and begins to speak, introducing the next part of the episode where their relationship and duties will be tested.
