Educational Q&A

Strength is not merely physical power but the capacity to sustain effort and bear responsibility for others; the capable person should lead and protect the group through steady perseverance.

Vidura addresses a person called “Bhārata,” urging him to take the others along again and continue the journey as before, because he alone has the strength and endurance to keep moving steadily.
