<div class="heading">Just like one of our Godbrothers, he's thinking that "This institution was started by me and Bhaktisiddhānta Sarasvatī as partners. Now the senior partner is dead. Therefore I am the sole proprietor. Who are these Godbrothers? Let them go away." So this is māyā, the same māyā Dhṛtarāṣṭra was thinking.

<span class="link">[[Vanisource:Lecture on SB 1.8.24 -- Mayapura, October 4, 1974|Lecture on SB 1.8.24 -- Mayapura, October 4, 1974]]: </span><div class="text"><p style="display: inline;">
Prabhupāda: So in the last verse, Kuntī accepted, ''vimocitā ahaṁ ca sahātmajā vibho'' ([[vanisource:SB 1.8.23|SB 1.8.23]]): "My Lord, there were so many dangers, and You saved us, along with my sons." ''Muhur vipad-gaṇāt'', "One after another, dangerous position." So some of them are being described.

''Viṣāt'', "From poison." The Dhṛtarāṣṭra group, Dhṛtarāṣṭra and his sons, they conspired to give them poison. They were transferred to a house. They were so obedient because Dhṛtarāṣṭra happened to be the superior in the house, and he took care of the Pāṇḍavas when they were small children because their father died at an early age. So it was the duty of the elderly members of the family. After all, they are very respectable ''kṣatriya'' family. So the elderly members means Dhṛtarāṣṭra and Vidura and Bhīṣmadeva. Bhīṣmadeva was the grandfather of the family, and Dhṛtarāṣṭra was the elder brother of Pāṇḍava, and Vidura was also brother, Vidura also elder. Pāṇḍu was the youngest, the father of Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira and . . . so it is, after all, a, what is called, ''varṇāśrama'' family, Vedic family. So the elderly people had the responsibility to raise the fatherless children. So Dhṛtarāṣṭra took charge as the eldest member. So ''māyā'' is very strong. He began to think that, "Actually, this kingdom belongs to me. I am the eldest son, but because I am born blind, therefore it was given to my younger brother. Now he is dead. Now he's dead, so the property belongs to me. Some way or other, it was transferred to my younger brother. Now the younger brother is dead. Then again I become proprietor. So at least, I could not rule over the kingdom; why not my sons?" This was the beginning.

Just like one of our Godbrother, he's thinking that, "This institution was started by me and Bhaktisiddhānta Sarasvatī as partners. Now the senior partner is dead, therefore I am the sole proprietor. Who are these Godbrothers? Let them go away." So this is ''māyā'', the same ''māyā'' Dhṛtarāṣṭra was thinking. And his brother-in-law, Śakuni, was very expert in conspiracy. So he was advising him, "Yes, you are the proprietor. At least your sons should be . . ." This is natural. Every . . . everyone has got some affection for the family. So this is the beginning of the conspiracy. Otherwise, he was taking care of the children very nicely. But ''māyā'' was dictating that, "You are taking care of the children of your brother. What about your own children?" "Yes, why not my children?"

So attempt was being made how to kill these boys. The first attempt was to administer poison.</p>
