ನಂತರ ಆ ಕಾರ್ಯನಿರತ ಪುರುಷರು ಸ್ತ್ರೀಯರೊಂದಿಗೆ ಸಂಭಾಷಿಸಿ, ಮೊದಲು ವ್ಯಾಯಾಮ ಮತ್ತು ಶೃಂಗಾರಾದಿ ಕೃತ್ಯಗಳನ್ನು, ನಿತ್ಯಕರ್ಮಗಳನ್ನು ನೆರವೇರಿಸಿ, ಮನೋಹರವಾದ ಆಹಾರವನ್ನು ಸೇವಿಸಿ, ಬಳಿಕ ತಮ್ಮ ಅಂತಃಪುರದ ಕೋಣೆಗಳಿಗೆ ಪ್ರವೇಶಿಸಿದರು।
वैशम्पायन उवाच
Educational Q&A
The verse highlights disciplined living: consultation within the household, attention to health and personal conduct, completion of daily duties, and moderation—suggesting that orderliness and self-regulation are integral to dharma even in royal life.
Vaiśampāyana narrates that the men (contextually the Pāṇḍavas) speak with their womenfolk, perform exercise and personal grooming, complete routine observances, eat a satisfying meal, and then retire to their quarters.
