Educational Q&A

What is the core teaching?

The verse highlights a dharmic ideal: one who has power and capacity—here Kṛṣṇa—should actively work for the welfare (hita) of the devoted and the righteous, and blessings (svasti, bhadra) accompany such service.

What is happening in the narrative?

After the Pāṇḍavas address Kṛṣṇa with a blessing and an instruction to keep promoting the devotees’ welfare, Kṛṣṇa departs for Dvārakā.
