Answer:

Explanation:

Yudhisthira sent each of his brothers one by one to collect water from the lake in the forest.

A Yaksha resting by a pond warned the brothers not to drink the water without his permission, but they ignored it and drank anyway. As punishment for ignoring the warning, they all died as soon as they took one sip.

Yudhisthira then came to the rescue, and answered all the questions that the Yaksha asked in exchange for the life of his brothers.

In the great epic Mahabharata, Maharaja Yudhisthira, son of Dharmaraja, is the embodiment of all good qualities. In many interviews, Yudhisthira reveals his deep understanding of the Vedic scriptures and their practical applications. One day, while living in exile in the forest, Yudhisthira discovers that while trying to drink water from a lake, all his brothers have been killed by a mysterious Yaksha (celestial being). When Yudhisthira arrives, the Yaksha challenges him to answer all his questions or face the same consequences as his brothers. These questions and answers are like the Vedic sutras, short, concise, and practical and deal with piety and piety.

Yaksha:: Who is a really useful companion?

Yaksha: How can one get something very big?

Yudhisthira: Everything desirable can be achieved through austerities.

Yaksha: What is amrita (nectar)?

Yudhisthira: Milk is like nectar.

Yaksha: What is the friend given to man by the demigods?

Yudhisthira: The wife is such a friend.

Yaksha: What is the best happiness?

Yaksha: Why does one give alms to Brahmins, artists, servants, and kings?

Yudhisthira: For religious merit, prestige, maintenance, and protection.

Yaksha: Why does one leave friends?

Yudhisthira: Lust and greed make one abandon friends.

Yaksha: What is the only food?

Yudhisthira: The cow is the only food because the milk it produces is used to make ghee (clarified butter) which is used to perform sacrifices, pleased with which the demigods give rain which causes the grain to grow. Therefore, it should be understood that the cow is the main cause of all kinds of food.

Yaksha: What is the king of knowledge?

Yudhisthira: Knowledge concerning the Supreme Personality of the Godhead is the king of all kinds of knowledge.

Yaksha: What is ignorance?

Yudhisthira: He does not know his constitutional duty.

Yaksha: What is the best bath?

Yaksha: What is true charity?

Yudhisthira: True charity protects one from the encroachments of material nature.

Yaksha: Since dharma (virtue), artha (gain), and kama (desire) are opposed to each other, how can they coexist harmoniously?

Yudhisthira: These three approach each other when one has a virtuous wife.

Yaksha: Who is condemned to eternal hell?

Yudhisthira: When someone promises a Brahmin alms, but when he comes, he refuses to give him alms.

Yaksha: What makes one a Brahmin, birth, learning, or conduct?

Yudhisthira: It is the only behavior that makes one a brahmin. Even one who is an expert in the four Vedas and born of brahmin parents, but whose conduct is not right, should be considered a sudra.

Yaksha: Who is looking forward?

Yudhisthira: A person who speaks in a pleasant manner.

Finally, the Yaksha asked Yudhisthira four very important questions:

Yaksha: Who is truly happy?

Yudhisthira: He who cooks himself (does not depend on anyone), is not a debtor (does not spend more than he can afford), does not have to leave home to earn a living (does not overdo himself for material things) is truly happy.

Yaksha: What's the coolest thing about it?

Yudhisthira: The most amazing thing is that even though he sees countless living beings dying every day, he still acts and thinks as if he lives forever.

Yaksha: What is the true path to take in this life?

Yudhisthira: The best path is to follow in the footsteps of pure devotees, for they are the true Mahayana, whose hearts are where the real truths of religion reside.

Yaksha: What's the news? (that is What is the real situation in the material world?)

Yudhisthira: The material world is like a pan. The sun is fire, and day and night are fuel. The passing seasons are the mixing ladle and the time is the cooking. All living beings are thus fried in this pan. This is the real news of what is happening in the material world, which is a wretched place full of ignorance.

These questions and answers cover a wide range of guidelines from success to pious to religious. Pleased with Yudhisthira's answers, the Yaksha, who was none other than Dharmaraja (Yudhisthira's father and the epitome of religiosity), revives all of Yudhisthira's brothers and offers him many boons.

Wife is a friend who stays at home.
