वैशम्पायन उवाच
Educational Q&A
Well-being is presented as arising from dharmic belonging—honoring elders, meeting one’s kin, and living within a supportive family network. Happiness (raṃsyasi) is linked to right relationships and social propriety, not isolated self-interest.
The speaker invites the addressed person to come to Indraprastha and assures a joyful stay, emphasizing that there she will meet Kuntī, Yudhiṣṭhira, Bhīma, and the speaker’s two younger brothers (understood as Nakula and Sahadeva), along with other relatives.
