Educational Q&A

The verse highlights the dharmic ideal of endurance in adversity: even noble persons face physical hardship, and meeting it with restraint and perseverance is part of righteous living during exile.

In the course of their forest exile, the Pāṇḍavas, weakened by hunger and thirst, reach a cool-shaded banyan tree in a dense forest and sit down to rest.
