Educational Q&A
Steadfastness in dharma requires mastering personal attachment; when one renounces partiality born of familial affection and stands firm in righteousness, one becomes worthy of approval and blessing.
A speaker named Yudhanva addresses someone as “son,” praising him for abandoning son-centered attachment and remaining established in dharma, and then grants him permission/boon to live for a hundred years.
