Educational Q&A

Even in potentially hostile or uncertain situations, dharmic conduct begins with self-restraint and proper civility—inquiring after one another’s welfare and maintaining composure before taking further steps.

Citraseṇa, Bhīma, Arjuna, and the twins Nakula–Sahadeva exchange greetings and ask about each other’s well-being, then remain seated in their chariots, marking a pause of formal courtesy before the next development.
