In plain words
Money goes just as it came. Joy, comfort and good fortune come to us only from Dharma, not from money.
Kṛṣṇa’s Master Plan to Guard Draupadī’s Wedded Life!
The Pāṇḍavas were able to win victory in the Mahābhārata war precisely because they were embodiments of Dharma and great devotees. Draupadī, their wife in Dharma, was a great pativratā.
She never goes against her husbands’ many words; she never says there is no time to serve them; she stays content with what she has: there is no pativratā to equal Draupadī.
But many people have the doubt: how can a woman who had five husbands be a pativratā? If you recognise the truth that those five stand for the five elements and the five vital breaths, there is no room for such a doubt. Since the Pāṇḍavas had the upper hand every day of the war, Duryodhana, Duśśāsana and the rest went to Bhīṣma, the commander of the Kaurava army: “Grandfather! It is no use your being so listless. What has become of your strength and might? If you rise up in full force, can the Pāṇḍavas stand before your onslaught?” So they goaded him. At once Bhīṣma swore an oath: “Duryodhana! Before sunset tomorrow I will slay the Pāṇḍavas.” Learning of this, Draupadī fell at Kṛṣṇa’s feet and prayed to Him to guard her wedded life. Kṛṣṇa makes a ‘master plan’ to suit the hour. That night, after everyone had gone to sleep, He set out for Bhīṣma’s tent, taking her with Him. Bhīṣma had sworn in haste that he would slay the Pāṇḍavas, but afterwards he fell into bitter remorse. “From eating the food of the Kauravas, such a wicked thought came to me,” he grieved.
Draupadī is walking with Kṛṣṇa. The sandals she is wearing go ‘kir-kir’. Kṛṣṇa told her to take off her sandals. He wrapped them in His upper cloth and tucked them under His arm. In those days there were no electric lights. At night people lit little lamps in the tents.
