Kuntī’s Retrospective Uddharṣaṇa and Renunciatory Resolve (कुन्त्युद्धर्षण-प्रत्याख्यानम्)
सर्वेषां तोयकलशान् जगहुस्ते स्वयं तदा । पाण्डवा लब्धसंज्ञास्ते मात्रा चाश्वासिता: पुन:
sarveṣāṃ toyakalaśān jaguhus te svayaṃ tadā | pāṇḍavā labdhasaṃjñās te mātrā cāśvāsitāḥ punaḥ ||
Vaiśampāyana berkata: Setelah berulang kali ditenteramkan oleh ibu mereka, para Pāṇḍava kembali teguh dan sadar; lalu pada saat itu mereka sendiri mengambil semua kendi yang berisi air dari tangan orang-orang lain.

Educational Q&A
Even amid sorrow and shock, one should return to dharma through steadiness and responsibility; a mother’s compassionate reassurance helps restore self-control so that necessary duties—especially ritual and care for others—can be carried out.
After being repeatedly consoled by their mother and regaining awareness, the Pāṇḍavas personally take the water-filled pitchers from others, indicating they are ready again to proceed with the required rites and actions.
