Dhrtarastra listens to Sanjaya’s narrations. Thirta-bhumi, a place of pilgrimage. Dhrtarastra’s mental disturbances regarding the social position of his children. The conditioned soul is attached to the material world (me and mine). When we understand that what we have does not belong to us and serve Krsna, our mind will become calm and peaceful.
