Yudhishthira now stakes not merely his own possessions but the kingdom itself and its people. It is telling that the well-being of his subjects goes into the wager: a ruler's passion delivers those entrusted to him into another's power. The verse teaches how far the sin of a ruler extends: in losing, he loses not himself alone but the fates of many. Notably, however, he does not stake the brahmins or their possessions -- even in his blindness the sacred is kept out of the wager. So even in this fall a line remains that dharma does not let him cross: a kingdom can be lost, but not what belongs to the sacred. Where that line is wholly erased, it is no longer a fall but ruin; and that Yudhishthira keeps it shows that even in the abyss he remains righteous.
