In the Yaksha Prashna of the Mahabharata, the four younger Pandavas fall lifeless beside a lake after ignoring the warning of its guardian Yaksha. Yudhishthira alone answers the Yaksha's profound questions, and by his wisdom his brothers are restored to life. This verse is among those celebrated answers, exalting the mother above the earth and the father above the sky, while observing the boundless speed of the mind and the endlessness of worry.
✦ શાસ્ત્રોમાં કહ્યા પ્રમાણે
By the wisdom of these very answers, the Mahabharata tells, Yudhishthira won back the lives of his fallen brothers from the Yaksha — who was Dharma himself in disguise, testing his son. The verse is remembered as proof that true understanding has the power to restore and protect.

માતા ગુરુતરા ભૂમેઃ ખાત્ પિતોચ્ચતરસ્તથા। મનઃ શીઘ્રતરં વાતાત્ ચિન્તા બહુતરી તૃણાત્॥
mātā gurutarā bhūmeḥ khāt pitoccatarastathā। manaḥ śīghrataraṁ vātāt cintā bahutarī tṛṇāt॥
અર્થ:The mother is weightier than the earth; the father is higher than the sky; the mind is swifter than the wind; and anxious cares are more numerous than blades of grass. This celebrated answer of Yudhishthira to the Yaksha exalts the mother above the earth itself and the father above the heavens, while warning that the restless mind and its worries are boundless.
