This sudden attack created a lot of chaos in the kingdom. People started fleeing in order to save their lives.
In this world you will have many people to share your happiness, but very few who will stand by you in your times of grief.
In the palace, princess Vasumati too was left alone by her attendants and maids who ran to save their lives... they are the same people who earlier comforted the queen and the princess 24 by 7 before Shatanik attacked the kingdom. Vasumati ran to her mother for help. They were unfortunately captured by the soldiers of the enemy army while trying to escape. During that age, women were not free and emancipated. A woman who was thus captured, became the personal property of the person who took her.
Imagine this: a moment ago, two women - a queen and a princess, who had all the luxury and wealth of the world at their feet, were in the very next moment, captives of an enemy soldier who took them away in a chariot. Think of the turmoil that these two ladies must have undergone, the fear that they must have experienced, regarding the intentions of the man who was their master and with whom they were travailing through the forest. Think of their fear regarding the future. There must have been such pain in their eyes, along with tears of sadness and so many unanswered questions in their mind.
Till yesterday, they had guards around them to ensure their safety. Today, there was not a single soul to save them. Yesterday, they led a royal life & today, they were slaves. That is why it is said that -
Fruits of meritorious deeds (Punya) are like bubbles of water - No one knows when the bubble will burst. It does not take long for the bubble to burst and similarly, It does not take time for our Punya (meritorious deeds) to decrease.
Hence, when we are sitting on the bubbles of our meritorious deeds, we must not be too excited or too happy. The amount of happiness that our Punya gives, our Paap give us an equal amount of unhappiness.
