Educational Q&A
In a crisis shaped by violence and uncertainty, the righteous response is to seek clarity from higher knowledge and trustworthy authority. Arjuna’s turning to Vyasa highlights that victory is not merely tactical; it is also interpreted through dharma, omens, and the counsel of sages.
Sanjaya tells Dhritarashtra that Arjuna has seen an extraordinary, victory-signaling event and then questions the sage Vyasa, who has unexpectedly appeared on the scene, to understand its meaning and implications.
