Ten thousand camels carried — with difficulty — the treasury of that great soul, so great was the wealth, O great king. Arriving before the hero Yudhishthira in Indraprastha, the glorious son of Madri offered him this wealth. Thus the western quarter, guarded by Varuna and already conquered by Vasudeva, was conquered by Nakula, bull of the Bharatas.

The chapter closes as all four campaigns close: what is won does not settle with the conqueror, but is "offered to Yudhishthira." And again it is said: the west is "already conquered by Vasudeva." It is telling, this double circle — the labor returns to the elder, and the glory returns to the Lord. The verse teaches that every righteous gain has a twofold purpose: to serve the earthly head and to manifest the Lord's dominion. Ten thousand camels of treasure are not wealth for wealth's sake, but an offering; and the greatest fruit of the campaign is not the treasury, but the establishment of an order in which everything belongs to the Lord and is laid at the feet of His steward.
