Shloka 7
नकुलस्तु तथेत्युक्त्वा शीघ्रमारुह्म पादपम् । अब्रवीद् भ्रातरं ज्येष्ठमभिवीक्ष्य समन्तत:,तब नकुल “बहुत अच्छा” कहकर शीघ्र ही एक पेड़पर चढ़ गये और चारों ओर दृष्टि डालकर अपने बड़े भाईसे बोले--
nakulas tu tathety uktvā śīghram āruhya pādapam | abravīd bhrātaraṁ jyeṣṭham abhivīkṣya samantataḥ ||
نکُل نے “جیسا حکم” کہہ کر فوراً ایک درخت پر چڑھ گیا۔ چاروں طرف نگاہ ڈال کر اس نے اپنے بڑے بھائی سے کہا۔

Educational Q&A
The verse highlights disciplined action: Nakula promptly follows instruction, gains situational awareness by surveying all directions, and then reports to the elder—an ethical model of obedience, vigilance, and responsible speech.
Nakula assents (“tathā”), quickly climbs a tree to get a better view, looks around on all sides, and then speaks to his eldest brother to convey what he has observed.
