Shloka 39
स्त्रीपर्व — अध्याय १५: गान्धारी-युधिष्ठिर-संवादः
Gandhārī’s Confrontation and Consolation of Yudhiṣṭhira
उत्थाप्य याज्ञसेनीं तु रुदतीं शोककर्शिताम् । तयैव सहिता चापि पुत्रैरनुगता नृप
utthāpya yājñasenīṁ tu rudatīṁ śokakarśitām | tayaiva sahitā cāpi putrair anugatā nṛpa ||
Vaiśampāyana nói: Nhà vua đỡ Yājñasenī dậy—nàng đang khóc và tiều tụy vì sầu khổ—rồi cùng nàng đi tiếp; các con trai của nàng cũng theo sau.
वैशम्पायन उवाच
Educational Q&A
In the wake of catastrophe, dharma expresses itself as compassionate support: the grieving are to be physically and morally upheld by family and rulers, not left alone in sorrow.
Draupadī (Yājñasenī), overcome with grief and weeping, is helped up; the king continues with her, while her sons follow—depicting a procession amid mourning in the Strī Parva context.
