Educational Q&A
The verse urges moral resolve: recalling endured injustices—banishment, forest exile, and Draupadī’s humiliation—one should act with courage and steadiness to uphold justice and kṣatriya-duty, rather than lapse into weakness or indecision.
In the Udyoga Parva’s war-prelude context, Sañjaya frames the Pāṇḍavas’ past sufferings as a call to firmness. By invoking their expulsion, years of forest life, and Draupadī’s torment, he presses a Pāṇḍava to adopt a decisive stance as the conflict approaches.
