Educational Q&A
The verse appeals to Vedic authority to emphasize that right conduct is sustained by constant practice and by alignment with the āśrama-based framework of dharma (ordered disciplines/stages of life).
Nakula is speaking within the Shanti Parva’s dharma-discourse, citing what Veda-grounded authorities say to support a point about disciplined, continual observance of life-ordering duties.
