Satyaki

With the Rajasuya sacrifice complete, Yudhishthira opens his sabha for a festival of giving. He feeds thousands, gifts mountains of wealth, and fills the air with music and fragrance for seven nights. The assembly that gathers to honor him is not just of kings, but of sages, celestial musicians, and the very gods themselves.

Duryodhana returns from Yudhishthira's Rajasuya consecration and describes the scene to his father Dhritarashtra. He details the humiliating spectacle of rival kings serving the Pandavas like attendants, and the unity of their inner circle. The report ends with a confession: witnessing such unmatched prosperity is killing him.
