Mbh.8.73.4425 I swear by Truth to thee, O friend, that my limbs are burning at the thought that while the son of Subhadra was thus advancing, consuming the hostile army with his shafts, even on that occasion the wicked-souled Karna was engaged in acts of hostility to that hero, O lord!
Mbh.8.91.5852 Let this shaft, worshipped by me and possessed of great sharpness, slay my enemy Karna by that Truth

Mbh.12.123.7085 Asked by Prahlada as to who he was, that form possessed of great effulgence answered, saying, Know, O chief of the Daityas, that I am Truth.
Mbh.12.123.7087 After Truth had left Prahlada, following in the wake of Righteousness, another great person issued out of Prahlada's body.
Mbh.12.123.7089 Know, O Prahlada, that live there where Truth lives'

Mbh.12.137.7751 I swear by Truth, O friend'
Mbh.12.161.9549 That which is called Truth always exists in a pure and unmingled state in every one of those four orders.
Mbh.12.161.9550 With those that are good, Truth is always a duty.
Mbh.12.161.9551 Indeed, Truth is an eternal duty.
Mbh.12.161.9552 One should reverentially bow unto Truth.
Mbh.12.161.9553 Truth is the highest refuge of all.
Mbh.12.161.9554 Truth is duty; Truth is penance; Truth is Yoga; and Truth is the eternal Brahma.
Mbh.12.161.9555 Truth has been said to be Sacrifice of a high order
Mbh.12.161.9556 Everything rests upon Truth.
Mbh.12.161.9558 It behoveth thee to hear also as to how Truth may be acquired.
Mbh.12.161.9559 Truth, O Bharata, as it exists in all the world, is of thirteen kinds.
Mbh.12.161.9560 The forms that Truth assumes are impartiality, self control, forgiveness, modesty, endurance, goodness, renunciation, contemplation, dignity, fortitude, compassion, and abstention from injury.
Mbh.12.161.9561 These, O great monarch, are the thirteen forms of Truth.
Mbh.12.161.9562 Truth is immutable, eternal, and unchangeable.
Mbh.12.161.9586 These thirteen attributes, though apparently distinct from one another, have but one and the same form, viz, Truth.
Mbh.12.161.9587 All these, O Bharata, support Truth and strengthen it.
Mbh.12.161.9588 It is impossible, O monarch, to exhaust the merits of Truth.
Mbh.12.161.9589 It is for these reasons that the Brahmanas, the Pitris, and the gods, applaud Truth.
Mbh.12.161.9590 There is no duty which is higher than Truth, and no sin more heinous than untruth.
Mbh.12.161.9591 Indeed, Truth is the very foundation of righteousness.
Mbh.12.161.9592 For this reason, one should never destroy Truth.
Mbh.12.161.9593 From Truth proceed gifts, and sacrifice with presents, as well as the threefold Agnihotras, the Vedas, and everything else that leads to righteousness.
Mbh.12.161.9594 Once on a time a thousand horse-sacrifices and Truth were weighed against each other in the balance.
Mbh.12.161.9595 Truth weighed heavier than a thousand horse-sacrifices'
Mbh.12.174.10503 Nothing can resist the messengers Disease and Decrepitude of Death when they advance except Truth which devours Untruth.
Mbh.12.174.10504 In Truth is immortality
Mbh.12.174.10505 For these reasons one should practise the vow of Truth; one should devote oneself to a union with Truth; one should accept Truth for one's Veda; and restraining one's senses, one should vanquish the Destroyer by Truth.
Mbh.12.174.10507 One comes to Death through ignorance and loss of judgment; while Immortality is achieved through Truth.
Mbh.12.174.10508 I shall, therefore, abstain from injury and seek to achieve Truth, and transgressing the sway of desire and wrath, regard pleasure and pain with an equal eye, and attaining tranquillity, avoid Death like an immortal.
Mbh.12.174.10513 There is no penance like that involved in Truth.
Mbh.12.174.10524 Bhishma continued, Do thou also, O monarch, conduct thyself in that way in which the sire in this story, conducts himself, devoted to the religion of Truth, after having listened to the speech of his son'
Mbh.12.187.11245 The puissant Lord then created Truth, Duty, Penance, the eternal Vedas, all kinds of pious acts, and Purity, for enabling creatures to attain to heaven by practising them.
Mbh.12.189.11302 SECTION CXC Bhrigu said, Truth is Brahma; Truth is Penance; it is Truth that creates all creatures.
Mbh.12.189.11303 It is by Truth that the whole universe is upheld; and it is with the aid of Truth that one goes to heaven.
Mbh.12.189.11310 Amongst these, that which is Truth is Righteousness; that which is Righteousness is Light; and that which is Light is Happiness.
Mbh.12.193.11654 The matter is otherwise with one acquainted with the Truth.
Mbh.12.193.11655 The mere knowledge of Truth will bring him happiness.
Mbh.12.193.11659 He that has understood the triple aggregate viz, that it is liable to destruction instead of being eternal, and reflecting upon it, casts it away, succeeds by yoga to behold the Truth and obtain perfect felicity.
Mbh.12.198.11933 The rewards of sacrifices and gifts, as also of fasts and religious observances, are not so efficacious in rescuing a person from evil and hell as Truth, O bull among men, in both this and the next world.
Mbh.12.198.11934 All the penances that have been undergone by thee and all those that thou wilt undergo in the future for hundreds and thousands of years do not possess efficacy greater than that of Truth.
Mbh.12.198.11935 Truth is one un deteriorating Brahma.
Mbh.12.198.11936 Truth is the one undeteriorating Penance.
Mbh.12.198.11937 Truth is the one undeteriorating sacrifice.
Mbh.12.198.11938 Truth is the one undeteriorating Veda.
Mbh.12.198.11939 Truth is awake in the Vedas.
Mbh.12.198.11940 The fruits attached to Truth have been said to be the highest.
Mbh.12.198.11941 From Truth arise Righteousness and Self-restraint.
Mbh.12.198.11942 Everything rests on Truth.
Mbh.12.198.11943 Truth is the Vedas and their branches.
