Educational Q&A
Elders and guardians must remain informed about the conduct of heirs and respond with timely guidance; awareness and truthful reporting are safeguards of dharma in a royal household.
Two parallel channels of communication are described: Vidura reports the princes’ activities to Dhṛtarāṣṭra, while Kuntī reports those same activities to Gāndhārī—keeping the senior figures apprised of the young royals’ behavior.
