☺️☺️

Yudhishthira, the eldest prince of the Pandavas is always projected as a person who

followed the tenets of Dharma and is held in high esteem because of this. That he was a

wise man who was held in great reverence is evident from two noteworthy incidents – the „Yaksha Prasna‟ and his conversation with Nahusha, the serpent. Both these incidents bring

to fore Yudhishthira‟s extraordinary intellectual competency in the moralities of life and

establishes him as an authority on „Dharma‟. The „Yaksha Prasna‟ is one of the most

important sections of the Mahabharata which stands on par with the „Vidura Neethi‟(the

discourse on „Dharma‟ by Vidura) on aspects of morals and ethics. It is in the form of a

dialogue between a Yaksha (a semi-divine being) and Yudhishthira. While in exile, the

Pandavas once wander deep into the forest searching for the „Arani‟ (sticks used by the

officiating priest to start the fire of a Yagna) of a Brahmin priest. Having lost their way and

parched with thirst, Yudhishthira asks Sahadeva to fetch water. Sahadeva finds a pond

nearby and seeks to quench his thirst before taking water to his brothers. As he is about to

drink the water, a stern voice warns him that the pond was its territory and whoever wanted

to drink the water should first answer its questions lest be punished with death. Sachdeva

chooses to ignore the voice, proceeds to drink the water and falls dead instantly. The same fate befalls Nakula, Bhima and Arjuna...

Hope it helps you buddy..
