Wika ni Yudhiṣṭhira: “Sa gubat, habang sinisinghot ko ang banayad na halimuyak ng mga punò at baging na namumulaklak, mamamasdan ko ang mga kaaya-ayang nananahan sa kagubatan, sa iba’t ibang anyo.”

The verse highlights a dharmic turn toward peace and inward settling: instead of conflict, the mind is drawn to the quiet joy of nature—fragrance, beauty, and simple observation—suggesting restraint and contemplative living.
Yudhiṣṭhira describes what he expects to experience in the forest: smelling the sweet scents of blossoming trees and creepers and seeing the charming, varied beings who dwell there.
