युधिछिर उवाच
Educational Q&A
Right action in a morally complex situation is grounded in counsel that is both hita (beneficial) and satya (true). Yudhiṣṭhira expresses readiness to align his conduct in war with Kṛṣṇa’s truthful, welfare-oriented guidance—highlighting ethical obedience to righteous instruction rather than impulsive action.
Yudhiṣṭhira addresses Kṛṣṇa (Janārdana), affirming confidence that Kṛṣṇa will give sound and truthful counsel. He then vows that whatever Kṛṣṇa advises, he will carry it out in the ongoing battle, indicating reliance on Kṛṣṇa’s leadership and moral direction amid the Kurukṣetra conflict.
