Educational Q&A
Royal power is shown as legitimate and safe when it is guided by disciplined knowledge and restraint: brāhmaṇas characterized by tapas (austerity), vidyā (learning), and dama (self-control), along with a learned purohita, are placed at the forefront, and protective rites are performed to maintain order and auspiciousness.
The king (contextually Yudhiṣṭhira) halts and establishes a camp, placing learned and self-controlled brāhmaṇas and the royal priest in front. Many kings and priests perform proper śānti (pacificatory) rites and keep Yudhiṣṭhira and his ministers positioned in the center, surrounded for protection.
