Shanti

In the chapter 24 of Śāntiparva of the Mahābhārata, Hayagrīva was a noble king. He had not cultivated any friendship with other kings. Though he defeated his enemies, he was ultimately killed by them due to lack of friends. The lesson that Vyāsa taught to Yudhiṣṭhira by this story was that even mighty rulers must take the help of others.
