Vyāsa sprach: Sie geben den Menschen, und sie nehmen auch wieder. Denn wenn sie zufrieden sind, gewähren sie langes Leben, Gesundheit, Herrschaft, Reichtum und reichliche, vom Herzen ersehnte Genüsse; doch wenn sie erzürnt sind, vernichten eben diese Mächte all dies aufs Neue.

Educational Q&A

Worldly goods—life, health, power, and wealth—are not absolute possessions; they depend on higher forces and can be withdrawn. Therefore one should cultivate dharma, restraint, and humility rather than pride in prosperity.

Vyāsa states a general principle about the powers that govern human fortune: when pleased they grant blessings, and when angered they remove them. The statement functions as a moral reflection within the larger war narrative, reminding listeners that success and ruin can turn swiftly.
