'Yet, having reflected, I shall send Sanjaya to the sons of Pandu. So there is no need for you to wait. Go this very day to the son of Pandu.' Then the chief of the Kauravas honored Drupada's priest and sent him back to the Pandavas. And, summoning Sanjaya to the council hall, he addressed him with these words.

This passage (5.21.21) develops the central theme of the Udyoga-parva: the effort toward peace unfolds against the backdrop of an already inevitable war. Key themes: the Pandavas, Sanjaya. Here dharma reveals itself through speech, the choice of envoys, faithfulness to promises, and the responsibility kings bear for the consequences of their decisions.
