Sanskrit Text

धर्मो ह्यणीयान्वचनाद्बुद्धेश्च भरतर्षभ श्रुत्वोपास्य सदाचारैः साधुर्भवति क्वचित्

English Translation

Bhishma said Conversant as you are with duties, you have, O foremost of Bharata's race, asked me a question dealing with the mystery of duties. Without being asked, O Yudhishthira, I could not venture to dwell upon this duty. Morality is very subtile. One understands it, О foremost of Bharata's race by the help of scriptural texts. By remembering what one has heard and by doing good acts, some one in some place may become a righteous person.
