Educational Q&A
Even when guided by a divine counselor like Kṛṣṇa, the rightful leader must assume responsibility for discerning the next proper action (kṛtya) and executing it according to dharma.
Vaiśampāyana informs Yudhiṣṭhira (Dharmarāja) that Kṛṣṇa is waiting for him, and urges him to proceed with whatever immediate duty or next step is appropriate in the present circumstances.
