And while he stood there, an ascetic named Galava began to attend upon him, moved by respect and reverence, as well as by affection and a wish to please. And when a hundred years had passed, Dharma, once more assuming the form of Vasishtha, came to Kaushika out of a desire to eat. And seeing the great Rishi Vishvamitra, endowed with lofty wisdom, standing there with that food upon his head, and himself sustained all this time upon air, Dharma accepted that food, which was still warm and fresh. And having eaten that food, the god said: 'I am satisfied, O twice-born sage.' And having said this, he departed. And at these words of Dharma, Vishvamitra was freed from the status of a kshatriya, for he attained the status of a brahmin and was filled with rapture. And though he was pleased with the service and devotion of the ascetic Galava's discipline, Vishvamitra turned to him and said: 'With my leave, O Galava, go wherever you wish.' At his teacher's bidding, Galava, greatly pleased, said to Vishvamitra in a sweet, radiant voice: 'What final gift may I offer you in return for your services as my teacher?'

This passage (5.106.11-15) develops the central theme of the Udyoga-parva: the effort for peace is already underway against the backdrop of an inevitable war. Here dharma reveals itself through speech, the choice of an embassy, faithfulness to one's word, and the responsibility of kings for the consequences of their decisions.
