Educational Q&A
The verse idealizes a perfectly ordered realm: freedom to enjoy life without fear, where death and social predation (robbery/violence) are absent—an implicit contrast to the insecurity and mortality of the human world and the battlefield context of the parva.
Sañjaya continues a descriptive account of extraordinary regions/years (as framed in the surrounding passage), telling the king that in those places beings live joyfully, without death, and without threats like bandits or socially ‘outsider’ groups.
