All the threads are now gathered together to close the epic. King Dyumatsena has regained his kingdom and his sight. They come to the forest to find that Satyavan is still with Savitri in her lap as if he has woken up from a dream. He senses that something tremendous has happened while he lay asleep and knows intuitively that it is all because of her that things have changed so dramatically and the gods of fortune have smiled upon all of them. In passing, Savitri reveals the great secret that we are here to learn, the greatest of all secrets: the truth of love and oneness.
