Educational Q&A

What is the core teaching?

Even after victory, dharma continues as the duty to protect and stabilize society; responsible leadership prioritizes the safety of frightened civilians and restores order rather than indulging in triumph.

What is happening in the narrative?

Sañjaya reports that, with the consent of King Yudhiṣṭhira and in the presence/association of Kṛṣṇa (Keśava), he goes into Hāstinapura to safeguard people who have scattered and fled in fear.
