This passage (5.62.31) develops the central theme of the Udyoga-parva: the effort for peace unfolds against the backdrop of an inevitable war. Key themes: Dhritarashtra, war. Dharma is revealed here through speech, the choice of an embassy, faithfulness to promises, and the responsibility of kings for the consequences of their decisions.
