Educational Q&A

The verse foregrounds dharma within the household: before judging or escalating conflict, one should inquire carefully and fairly whether any real wrongdoing has occurred, especially in sensitive relationships like co-wives.

Arjuna addresses a woman connected to him and asks, with concern, whether Chitrāṅgadā—identified as a princess and as Chitravāhana’s daughter—has in any way offended her, implying a situation of tension or suspicion that he seeks to clarify.
