Educational Q&A
The verse highlights self-control and proper conduct: even powerful heroes and leaders remain composed, stay in their place, and wait respectfully for elders/authorities, reflecting dharmic discipline.
Vaiśampāyana narrates that the Pāṇḍavas, along with Kuntī and Dhṛṣṭadyumna, enter and remain seated where they are, waiting for two important persons who are about to arrive.
