Educational Q&A
The verse links disciplined learning (Veda and śāstra study) with social honour and inner security: knowledge aligned with dharma makes one respected and less vulnerable to fear.
After completing comprehensive studies in sacred and practical disciplines, the Pāṇḍavas remain settled in that place, receiving public respect and living without fear from any direction.
