दुर्योधन उवाच
Educational Q&A
The verse frames royal wealth as tied to yajña (sacrificial duty): kings contribute resources for ritual and public-religious purposes, highlighting how political power and wealth are ideally subordinated to dharmic ends—though in the Sabha context it also becomes fuel for rivalry and resentment.
In the royal assembly setting, Duryodhana begins recounting the vast and varied tribute/wealth that has come to Yudhiṣṭhira (notably in connection with sacrificial rites), setting up his reaction to the Pāṇḍavas’ prosperity and the tensions that follow.
