Educational Q&A
The verse highlights responsibility within a household or āśrama: one’s unexplained absence causes suffering to elders and family, so dharma includes being mindful of how one’s actions affect dependents and respected superiors.
Yama explains that when he goes out even during the day, his elders become anxious, and his father—along with the hermitage community—actively searches for him, indicating concern and the social bonds of āśrama life.
