Sandhi Notes
Educational Q&A
Unprovoked harm done to the virtuous inevitably returns as suffering to the doer; ethical causality (karma-phala) operates even amid war.
Sanjaya addresses the Kaurava side, pointing out that their present calamity is the direct outcome of earlier unjust conduct toward the Pāṇḍavas, who are characterized as sādhu (righteous).
