0:02"Victory to Dharma." Whenever we hear this sentence [music], we

0:08conjure up an image of a saga that remains as vibrant and

0:14relevant even thousands of years later. [music] The Mahabharata, the epic poem that

0:21pitted Dharma against Adharma. The war that not only conquered land but also

0:27tested the soul [music]. Today, we

0:33are going to relive the final and most emotional chapter of that saga: the Pandavas' journey to heaven. 36 years

0:39had passed since the great battle of Kurukshetra. [music] The war that established Dharma but also

0:45devastated countless families. It brought victory but

0:50also left countless [music] wounds in the hearts of the victors. 36 years had passed, an entire generation. The children

0:58born during that war were now capable of ruling their own kingdoms. But the [music] Pandavas

1:02who had lived through that war were now weary, disillusioned, and

1:08had risen above the world. And then, one after another, events occurred that signaled to the Pandavas that

1:15the time had come to depart. The first and most significant event was

1:20the departure of Lord Krishna himself. [Music] When Gandhari's curse came true [Music] and the Yadu dynasty itself

1:26was destroyed. When Dwarka sank into the sea, and when Krishna

1:32left his divine body, it was as if the Pandavas lost a part of their souls, for Krishna

1:38was not just their friend, not just their guide. [Music] He

1:43was the thread of their souls. Without him, the world seemed hollow, lifeless, and meaningless to the Pandavas.

1:50[Music] It was at that moment that a profound awakening dawned within Yudhishthira

1:53. [Music] A realization that defies words, that

1:59can only be experienced. This world is no longer for us. Our [Music] task is complete. One day,

2:05the Pandavas gathered in the royal palace of Hastinapur. Maharaja Yudhishthira sat in the center.

2:11There was a strange peace in his eyes [Music]. The peace that comes after a storm. The

2:17peace [music] that comes when all questions

2:20are answered. Bhima, Arjuna, Nakula, Sahadeva, and Draupadi were all present. The room fell silent,

2:28as if even the air were listening with bated breath. Yudhishthira slowly

2:35opened his eyes. A smile was on his lips. The smile that appears on the faces of sages

2:41who have known the world. Dear friends, Draupadi, today I want to tell you all something

2:48. The time has come, a feeling we all have somewhere in our hearts.

2:53The great power called Kaal or Time moves all beings [music] at its own pace. King

2:58or pauper, god or demon, all bow before Kaal. We

3:06have fulfilled our duty. We have secured our kingdom.

3:11Now we must rise above the illusion of this mortal world. Now we must take the path of Mahaprasthan

3:17. Yudhishthira's words echoed in the room, creating a deep wave. Bhima,

3:24who fought countless battles, who broke Duryodhana's thigh. Those who did not even salute the peaks of the Himalayas

3:29fell silent for a moment. Arjuna, who

3:36always held Gandiva in his hand and whose eyes were always fixed on the target, also

3:41fell lost in a distant memory. Nakula and Sahadeva, the youngest brothers,

3:48listened to their elder brother's words and silently accepted them. Draupadi, the princess of Panchala [music],

3:55born of fire and who had endured life's most difficult trials, also

4:01bowed her head without a moment's delay, without a word. This acceptance [music]

4:06was not in words. It was the consent of the soul. Yudhishthira now

4:12turned his attention to his successor [music]. He

4:17decided to pass the throne of Hastinapur to Abhimanyu's son, Parikshit. Parikshit, still young, possessed

4:23both the valor of his father Abhimanyu and the wisdom of his grandfather Arjuna.

4:28He appointed Yutsu, son of Dhritarashtra, who

4:33had championed the cause of Dharma at Kurukshetra, as Parikshit's guardian. Everything

4:39was arranged. There was no panic, no regrets. Like a merchant

4:45who leaves with a calm mind after handing over his entire shop. Before his final departure, Yudhishthira offered tarpana and shraddha to all

4:51the sages and gods. He performed special pujas for Lord Krishna and

4:56his departed loved ones. [Music] For Karna, his unknown

5:02elder brother, for Dronacharya, for Bhishma Pitamah.

5:10And as he left the royal gates, the people of Hastinapur poured onto the streets.

5:16Children, old people, women, men, all filled with tears. Today their king, the king

5:23who had protected them for 36 years, who was the very embodiment of Dharma,

5:29was leaving them forever. [Music] Yudhishthira paused,

5:34looking at his people, at the thousands of faces filled with love, sorrow, and reverence. Dear

5:41citizens of the city, [Music] We have served you to the best of our ability.

5:46Now our time has come. Protect one another, follow the path of righteousness. For

5:53righteousness alone sustains this world. Only righteousness triumphs in the end [music]. Parikshit and

5:58Yuyutsu are your new kings. Honor them.

6:03And pray for us. Tears flowed from the eyes of the people. Some

6:10wanted to protest [music]. But the firmness on Yudhishthira's face

6:14silenced them all. For when a great man makes a decision, even the universe

6:21cannot block his path. The Pandavas took off their royal robes [music]. They

6:27donned the clothes of forest dwellers. They had a tilak on their foreheads, a kamandalu in their hands, and at their feet,

6:34a simple path leading north. And then something unexpected happened. A

6:41dog, a simple ordinary dog, followed them. As if it knew the

6:48direction this journey led. As if someone had sent it. The Pandavas saw it and

6:53made no attempt to drive it away. The dog began walking with them. Silent, loyal,

7:01and mysterious. The Pandavas' journey began from the west. They crossed rivers,

7:08passed through forests, and traversed plains, moving forward. Nature welcomed them. Birds

7:14flew with them, rivers made way for them. Finally, they reached the shores of the Salt Sea

7:20, the vast, unfathomable ocean that stretched across the western edge of the earth. It was here that a

7:27remarkable event occurred. Arjuna held his Gandiva bow and two inexhaustible strings. He

7:34carried them. Perhaps out of habit, perhaps because he

7:40could not separate the bow from his life. Gandiva was not just a weapon. It was Arjuna's identity. It

7:46was his life. It symbolized countless memories between him and Lord Krishna. Suddenly,

7:53a divine light rose from the ocean waters. A burning fragrance wafted through the air, and

8:00Agnidev, the god of fire, appeared before them. His body was flame itself, but a flame that

8:07did not burn but gave light. His eyes blazed. His voice [music]

8:13was full of roar and compassion. Arjuna, Mahavira, listen to me. That Gandiva

8:19bow you hold is mine. Varuna Deva gave it to me, and I

8:26entrusted it to you for the burning of the Khandava forest and the fulfillment of your great tasks

8:31. Now all your tasks are complete. That bow

8:37should no longer remain on this earth. Return it. Arjuna stood still. [Music] For a moment, just a moment,

8:44the touch of the Gandiva, the sound of its string, flashed through his mind. Those

8:50moments of Kurukshetra when Shri Krishna was his charioteer. Everything came together, but the next moment

8:57he closed his eyes. When he opened them [Music], there were no tears in them, but

9:03a deep peace. This Gandiva has adorned my life.

9:08[Music] It protected Dharma. With it, I

9:12fought the Mahabharata war on the orders of Shri Krishna. Today, I return it with the same spirit [Music] with which I

9:17held it. In the service of Dharma.

9:24Arjuna immersed the Gandiva bow and both the Akshaya Tritiyars in the ocean.

9:29[Music] As they entered the water, Agnidev (fire god)

9:32absorbed them, and they vanished in a blazing light. This moment

9:38was highly symbolic. Arjuna gave up his greatest symbol [music], his Gandiva. The

9:45man who could not even imagine Arjuna without weapons, today,

9:49freed from them, had set out on a new journey. The Pandavas now turned their backs on the sea and

9:56headed north. [Music] Beneath their feet was no longer soil, but dharma. Moving forward,

10:02they saw [music] the place where Dwarka once stood. The city of Shri Krishna. But

10:07now there was only water. The sea had swallowed that city. The Pandavas

10:14looked at that water and [music] bowed down in their hearts. The grief that should have been felt at seeing Dwarka submerged in the sea

10:20was no longer there. For they had realized that everything that

10:26is created will one day be destroyed. This is the law of nature. [Music] This is the law of time.

10:33The journey north now turned towards the Himalayas. They

10:38began to ascend through the foothills of the mountains. The Himalayas are where the gods reside. Where sages meditate. Where

10:45earth and heaven meet. But this climb into the Himalayas

10:51was no ordinary journey. It was a path only those who had

10:57settled their karmas could tread. And those who hadn't, were stopped midway.

11:03The icy mountain winds bit their faces. There was snow beneath their feet, sometimes

11:09sinking. The path was steep, making it difficult to breathe. But

11:16the six souls—Yudhishthira, Bhima, Arjuna, Nakula, Sahadeva, and Draupadi, along with the

11:23mysterious dog—continued to move forward. What happened first was unexpected. Draupadi,

11:31the princess of Panchala, the wife of the Pandavas, born of fire, who, even during exile, Draupadi

11:38, who upheld the dignity of a princess. Who endured the humiliation of disrobing and believed in dharma

11:44. Who witnessed the horrors of the Kurukshetra war. Her steps slowed

11:51. Her breath became labored. Her body, which had endured so many hardships over the years,

11:58began to give way. And then came the moment. Draupadi stumbled [music] and fell on the snow.

12:05Bhima, whose heart was said to be as hard as stone in battle, ran to Draupadi.

12:12​​His eyes were moist, his voice heavy.

12:17Radha, wait, Draupadi has fallen [music] She who always stood with dharma.

12:26Who never sided with sin [music]. Who endured humiliation for us.

12:31Why did she fall?

12:35This is not justice. No, Yudhishthira [music] stopped. He

12:42looked at Draupadi. ​​Her body was on the snow. Her eyes were closed. For a moment, a wave of pain crossed Yudhishthira's

12:50face too. But he knew. He knew because he

12:57was Dharmaraja. They knew that the consequences of karma spare no one.

13:04[Music] Bhima, wait! Draupadi was great, no doubt. Her devotion, her strength,

13:11her sacrifice were incomparable. But there was a subtle bias in her heart that

13:18brought her here. She was the wife of all five of us. But she had a special affection for Arjuna

13:24. This affection, no matter how natural, symbolized a bond that

13:30stands in the way of salvation. This knot of attachment held her back. Bhima's shoulders sank

13:37. He cast a long glance at Draupadi, seated on the ground. Perhaps he

13:45wanted to lift her up. Perhaps he wanted this journey to end here.

13:50But this was the great departure. No one waits here. This is a path that

13:57moves only at the pace of the soul. Yudhishthira stepped forward. Bhima, Arjuna, Nakula, and

14:06Sahadeva followed. Draupadi, born of fire, rested there in the snow

14:14. Her soul, now free from these worldly bonds, soared upward. [Music]

14:21Born from fire, dissolved into ice—this was also a remarkable coincidence. The journey continued. But

14:29now, with each step, the winds grew stronger. The snow grew deeper. And

14:36one by one, the Pandava brothers' feet began to tire. Sahadeva was the next to fall.

14:44Sahadeva, Madri's son, was known for his wisdom and knowledge. He

14:51possessed knowledge of the past, future, and present. He knew what would happen but would not tell, because

14:57that was his destiny. When Sahadeva fell, Bhima was again distraught.

15:03Yudhishthira's brother Sahadeva also fell. He was humble. He was wise. His

15:12devotion to Dharma was unwavering. Why [nasal sound]?

15:15Yudhishthira replied, and his words carried truth, not pain. Sahadeva [music]

15:21had a subtle pride. He was proud of his knowledge. He believed that

15:27no one was equal to him in wisdom. No matter how subtle, ego weighs on the soul

15:34. That very weight held him back.

15:39[Music] The Pandavas moved forward, and after a while, it was Nakula's turn. Nakula, Madri's second

15:46son, whose beauty was talked about in all three worlds, who

15:53was always clean, neat, and attractive. His external beauty was his identity. When Nakula fell, Yudhishthira

16:00replied: Nakula was proud of his looks. He knew he was beautiful. This beauty, this

16:07pride, this attachment to the body, became an obstacle on the path to salvation. The body is mortal,

16:14but one who considers the body his identity cannot be free from it. And then

16:20came the most heartbreaking moment. Arjuna, the same Arjuna who

16:28was the first to hear the Gita. The same Arjuna to whom Lord Krishna had told him to be a mere instrument. The same Arjuna

16:36who had shot an arrow at Grandfather Bhishma, who had defeated Karna, who

16:42was the greatest hero of the Mahabharata war. He slowly slowed down. His steps trembled,

16:49and finally, he too fell. No, Arjuna, this cannot happen. He

16:58was a great hero. Krishna's beloved Gandiva [Music] How

17:03Yudhishthira paused for a moment. His face held a deep sorrow, but his eyes were steady.

17:10Arjuna possessed boundless valor, devotion to Krishna, understanding of dharma, but he also harbored an arrogance

17:17of his invincibility. [Music] He had vowed to slay all his enemies

17:23in a single day. That vow could not be fulfilled [Music], and

17:28the weight of that unfulfilled vow weighed on his soul. Pride in his prowess was his only weakness, and it

17:34led to his downfall. Yudhishthira never looked back. He knew there

17:41was no turning back on this path. Arjuna, who had already immersed his Gandiva in the ocean

17:47, now surrendered his body to the Himalayas. Now only two brothers remained: Yudhishthira and

17:55Bhima. Bhima, son of the wind, whose single fist

18:00could shake mountains. He had tried to lift Hanuman's tail, and he

18:06They couldn't lift it. Those who killed Keechaka, broke Duryodhana's thigh, and

18:12killed demons like Hidimba. They too were now [music] slowing down. They were breathing heavily. Their

18:18massive bodies showed signs of fatigue. And when Bhima fell, his voice, for the first time,

18:25held a thuggish tone. Brother,

18:28I can't walk anymore. But why? I always protected Draupadi, your brother.

18:35I had no selfish motive. My strength was always used for righteousness. Then

18:41why should I? Yudhishthira paused. He

18:46looked at his beloved brother, the strongest, the most fearless, the most innocent. There was compassion in his eyes. Bhima,

18:55your strength was extraordinary. Your love was unconditional, but

19:00you had flaws. An excessive [music] craving for food and pride in your own strength.

19:08You often looked down on others. You boasted of your own power.

19:13This [music] pride, no matter how justified,

19:20hinders the soul's liberation. Bhima's eyes closed. [sound of deep breathing]

19:25A calmness appeared on his face. Perhaps he understood. Yudhishthira

19:32looked at Bhima's huge hand for a moment. The hand that had protected him so much, the hand that had been his childhood companion,

19:39was now in the snow, and Yudhishthira stepped forward. Now he was alone.

19:47Yudhishthira, the eldest of the Pandavas, was moving alone towards the peak of the Himalayas. Behind him were

19:54memories of his five brothers, memories of Draupadi, the streets of Hastinapur,

19:59the battlefield of Kurukshetra, memories of exile. But his feet did not stop, for

20:05Yudhishthira had no ego. He had no attachment. [Music] was the only thing within him

20:11. Dharma, and those who walk with Dharma, never tire.

20:19The dog was still with him. The silent, faithful one had not retreated a single step. Not once had he strayed

20:27. As if someone else had sent him from a very high level. And then something happened that

20:34has rarely happened in the world . A wonderful light spread across the sky, as if a thousand suns

20:42had shone together. A divine golden chariot descended, tearing through the clouds. Riding on it

20:49was Indra, the king of the gods, the king of heaven, at whose mere command the clouds thunder.

20:57At whose command rain falls. His divine form shone. The gems in his crown glittered

21:04. He held a thunderbolt in his hand. He descended and stood before Yudhishthira. "

21:11Yudhishthira, Dharmaraja, virtuous soul, I have come to welcome you [music].

21:16The life you have lived on this earth is lived once in a lifetime.

21:22Your dharma, your truthfulness, and your sacrifice

21:27have made even heaven await you. Come, sit on this divine chariot. Heaven

21:34is a chariot waiting for you." Yudhishthira bowed to Indra, but his reply

21:39came with a condition: "Thank you, king of the gods. But my brothers and Draupadi

21:47fell on this journey. I will not go to heaven alone. Either everyone will go, or I will not

21:54go." [music] Indra smiled. "Don't worry, Yudhishthira

22:00. Your brothers and Draupadi have already reached heaven."

22:05[Sound of clearing throat] He has renounced his human body and assumed a divine form

22:08. [Music] He is waiting for you. You

22:12are the only person worthy of going to heaven in a human body on this earth.

22:18This is a rare opportunity. Come. Yudhishthira was satisfied. He stepped toward the chariot

22:24and then stopped. His gaze fell down on the dog that

22:31was still with him. The same dog that had accompanied him from Hastinapur.

22:38The one that had resisted hunger, thirst, or fatigue. Yudhishthira looked at Indra. "

22:45Lord of the gods, it accompanied me throughout the journey. It has come to my shelter. I

22:50cannot leave it here. Take it to heaven too."

22:54Indra's face grew serious. "Yudhishthira, you are a great saint. You

23:01deserve immortality and the bliss of heaven. But a dog, a pride,

23:07is not appropriate in heaven. Its presence would defile the sanctity of heaven. Leave it here and

23:12board the chariot." Yudhishthira thought for a moment. But his

23:17answer was clear. "Lord of the gods, I cannot abandon someone who has come to my shelter." This is the core of my

23:23religion. The religion of one who does not protect the one who seeks refuge is hollow.

23:28If it is not possible to take this dog with him to heaven,

23:33then I do not want heaven. Indra made another attempt.

23:38But you left your brothers and Draupadi on the way. Was your

23:43relationship with them any less than that of this dog? Yudhishthira said in a calm voice, "Devraj,

23:50this comparison is not appropriate. I did not abandon my brothers and Draupadi

23:54. ​​Their time came and they went.

24:02To abandon anyone who is alive, who is with me, who is dependent on me, is a grave sin. One who abandons a person who seeks refuge in fear, sorrow, or greed,

24:09abandons religion itself. I will not commit this sin for the comforts of heaven."

24:14And then the miracle happened. The ordinary-looking dog

24:21began to transform into a divine light. His body shone with a golden glow, and before him appeared Dharmaraja Yamaraja,

24:29the god of justice, the son of the same Yamaraja who was Yudhishthira himself.

24:35[Music] The father was testing his son. Yudhishthira, my child, today I am blessed. I

24:41tested you, and you succeeded. You did not abandon a single refugee for the sake of heaven

24:46. This is the highest form of dharma.

24:52There is no one in heaven who can match you. You are the true Dharmaraja.

24:58Yudhishthira bowed to his father. Tears welled in his eyes. [Music] But

25:02they were tears of gratitude, not sorrow. Indra, Yamaraja, and Yudhishthira all

25:09boarded the divine chariot, and the chariot soared into the sky. [Music]

25:15Heaven, where even the sunlight pales. Where the air itself contains nectar.

25:23Where time stands still and bliss is eternal. When Yudhishthira

25:30gazed upon heaven for the first time, his mind was stunned. So much beauty, so much splendor, but his mind was elsewhere

25:38. Then he beheld a sight that ignited a fire within him.

25:46Sitting on a golden throne was Duryodhana. The same Duryodhana who had Draupadi disrobed [music]

25:52. The same Duryodhana who had plotted to poison the Pandavas. The same

25:59Duryodhana who had caused the great battle of Kurukshetra [music] and killed millions,

26:06was here among the gods [music]. With reverence, the fire within Yudhishthira erupted. What is this,

26:13Duryodhana? Here, he who tried to destroy Dharma, because of whom our

26:19sons, our friends, our gurus, were all killed, is sitting here among the gods

26:25[music]. And where are my brothers? Where is Draupadi, who

26:29suffered all her life for Dharma? The gods replied calmly [music]. In heaven, all enmities

26:35end. Duryodhana fought like a Kshatriya.

26:41He died a heroic death on the battlefield. This is the highest form of Kshatriya Dharma. As a result of this deed, he

26:48was granted a place here. But this answer did not satisfy Yudhishthira. If this is heaven, then

26:56I do not need it. Take me to where my brothers are. Where Draupadi is,

27:01even if it is hell. Hearing this, the gods were stunned. A man who

27:09himself deserves to go to heaven is expressing his desire to go to hell.

27:14For his brothers. This was love. This was dharma. This was Yudhishthira.

27:21Yudhishthira was led by a demon messenger in the direction [music] from where

27:26the cries of execution were coming. [screams] As they moved forward,

27:30the atmosphere changed. The light dimmed. A foul smell filled the air, and

27:38voices began to come from far, far away. Voices of pain. [screams]

27:43Yudhishthira's heart began to feel heavy. They continued moving forward, and then he heard

27:50familiar voices: Bhima's voice, Arjuna's voice, Nakula's, Sahadeva's, and Draupadi's.

27:59They were all here, in this dark, stinking place.

28:05Brother Yudhishthir, your presence has brought us peace.

28:11Don't go here, go back. Yudhishthir [music] stopped. His legs wouldn't

28:17lift. His heart cried out, "As long as my brothers are here, I

28:24will stay here." He told the messenger, "I won't leave. As long as my brothers and

28:30Draupadi are in this pain, I will stay here. If my presence

28:35brings them even a little peace, I will stay here." And at that moment, everything changed.

28:41The darkness cleared. The stench vanished. The sounds of the carvings stopped, and Indra,

28:48Yamaraj, and all the gods appeared before them. Smiles on their faces. Yudhishthir, this was all an illusion.

28:55A test. The final test of your soul. A person willing to leave heaven and

29:00live in hell is truly beyond all greed. This was the test of dharma,

29:06and you passed. Your brothers and Draupadi are all here. All is well. What

29:12you heard was an illusion. The purpose was to burn the last ashes of your deeds

29:18. Indra continued, "Yudhishthir, listen! The one who suffers first in life, [music]

29:25finds the greatest happiness in the end. This is the law of time. You

29:33spoke half-heartedly to Dronacharya about Ashwatthama's death. The consequence of that one sin

29:38was to suffer a momentary vision of hell. Now you are completely pure."

29:46Yudhishthir then experienced something else. Indra

29:52bathed him in the divine Ganga, the Mandakini of heaven. [music]

29:58As soon as Yudhishthir took a dip in that divine water, his human body melted away.

30:04All his human suffering, all his fatigue, [music] all his pain dissolved into that water. And

30:10when he emerged from the water, he was no longer Yudhishthir. He was Dharmaraja, an

30:17immortal soul enveloped in a divine, radiant golden aura. And then came the moment for which Yudhishthir

30:23The heart was aching. Reunited. Bhima, Arjuna, Nakula, Sahadeva, and Draupadi

30:31were all in divine form. Their faces held a peace unmatched in this world, and Karna was with them.

30:36[Music] Today in heaven, all distinctions had vanished. Karna's

30:41soul was at complete peace, as was Bhishma Pitamah Dronacharya. Abhimanyu, Arjuna

30:48's valiant son, was also here. His soul held the same valor as his father.

30:54Yudhishthira looked at each one. He bowed to each one [Music], and then Devarshi

30:59Narada, the divine messenger who roams all the worlds, appeared and said, "Listen,

31:06inhabitants of heaven, today an event has occurred that has never happened before. Yudhishthira,

31:12the son of Pandu, has come to heaven in this human form. This is the rarest of rare occasions. History

31:18will write in golden letters the name of a king who never abandoned dharma."

31:23Not for the kingdom, not for heaven, not for our brothers, not for a weak creature.

31:32Celestials rang out in heaven. The gods bowed and the nymphs began to dance. [Music]

31:39Divine flowers showered down. Yudhishthira smiled for the first time, perhaps

31:45for the first time in a long time. His mind was free from any burden. This journey of the Pandavas to heaven

31:52is not merely a mythological tale. It is a mirror of truths that

31:57unfold daily in all our lives. Draupadi's downfall teaches us that love should be equal.

32:03When we love one person more than the other, this partiality binds the soul

32:08. [Music] Sahadeva's downfall teaches us. Never be proud of knowledge. [Music] The

32:14greater the knowledge, the greater the humility. Nakula's downfall teaches us that physical

32:20beauty is fleeting. He who depends on his outward appearance [Music]

32:25perishes along with it. Arjuna's downfall teaches us. Do not be arrogant about skill. No matter how

32:32skilled you are [Music] Modesty and simplicity are greater than valor. Bhima's downfall teaches us.

32:38Use your strength [music]. Don't be proud of your power. And

32:43take only what is necessary. Excessive greed burdens the soul [music]. And Yudhishthira's

32:48successful journey teaches us that Dharma is never a business. Dharma is not practiced for the

32:54sake of reward. Dharma is practiced because it is right. The person who

33:00does not stick to Dharma even for the sake of heaven is the true [music]. And that dog

33:06was Dharma itself. To see if [music] Yudhishthira

33:11would not abandon a weak person even at the gates of heaven? And Yudhishthira did not.

33:17In today's fast-paced world, we often wonder what benefit is there in helping someone?

33:22What benefit is there in speaking the truth? What benefit is there in being honest?

33:26Yudhishthira's life is the answer to all these [music] questions. The fruits of Dharma

33:30are not immediately attained. Sometimes, following the path of Dharma leads to exile, humiliation, and

33:36war. But ultimately, Dharma prevails. Yudhishthira [music] proved this:

33:42he gave up his kingdom for truth. He lost his brothers for dharma and

33:48even rejected heaven to protect those who sought refuge. That is why he is Dharmaraja. That is why his name is immortal. Yato
