Verses 5.47.101-103 continue the central theme of the Udyoga-parva: the effort toward peace unfolds against the backdrop of an already inevitable war. Key themes: Vidura, Bhishma. Dharma is revealed here through speech, the choice of embassy, faithfulness to one's word, and the responsibility kings bear for the consequences of their decisions.
