ยุธิษฐิระกล่าวว่า—“ภีมเสนะ เจ้าฝาแฝดทั้งสอง และปาญจาลี จงตั้งใจฟัง. สิ่งที่เกิดขึ้นแล้วหาได้สูญสิ้นไม่; กรรมที่ทำไว้ก่อนย่อมไม่ดับไปหากยังมิได้เสวยผล. จงดูเราเถิด—แม้เกิดเป็นราชกุมาร ก็ยังต้องระหกระเหินจากพนาสณฑ์สู่พนาสณฑ์ ด้วยแรงผลกรรมเหล่านั้นเอง.”

Educational Q&A

Yudhiṣṭhira emphasizes the inevitability of karmic fruition: past actions do not vanish without yielding their results, and present hardship should be understood as the maturation of prior deeds rather than random misfortune.

In the forest exile, Yudhiṣṭhira addresses Bhīma, the twins (Nakula and Sahadeva), and Draupadī, urging them to reflect soberly on their condition—princes living as forest-wanderers—and to interpret it through the lens of karma and endurance.
