धर्मो विवर्धति युधिष्ठिर

Om is the sacred sound and spiritual icon in Hinduism, often considered the primordial sound from which the universe was created. It is a central symbol in Indian religions and is used in various spiritual practices, symbolizing the essence of the ultimate reality or consciousness. This verse extols the virtues and benefits of reciting the names of the Pandavas, the five heroic brothers from the Indian epic Mahabharata. The verse suggests that by singing the praises of Yudhishthira, the eldest Pandava known for his righteousness, dharma or righteousness increases. The mention of Vrikodara, another name for Bhima, signifies that his praise leads to the destruction of sins.
