Dhritarashtra said: "Having rested for some time, the great-souled and mighty ones were summoned by Dhritarashtra and by King Bhishma, son of Shantanu. 'Together with your brothers, O Kaunteya, hear this word of mine: let there be no strife among you again; settle in Khandavaprastha. And none among the living will be able to oppress you there, protected by Partha as the gods are by the wielder of the thunderbolt. Having received half the kingdom, settle in Khandavaprastha.'"

Here the kingdom is divided — but not wholly in good conscience. It is telling that Dhritarashtra, in giving "half," allots the Pandavas the wild Khandavaprastha: a concession is made, but with cunning stinginess, under the pretext of avoiding strife. Here is a half-good, in which truth is mixed with self-interest; yet even this barren portion the Pandavas will accept in peace, without dispute. Thus the text reveals the king's incomplete justice; and the meekness of the Pandavas will turn even a wilderness into paradise.
