The war of Mahabharata was going on
One day being hurt by the satire of Duryodhana…
"Bhishma Pitamah" declares that-
"I'll kill the Pandavas tomorrow"
The uneasiness in the Pandavas' camp increased as soon as his announcement was made -
Everyone knew about Bhishma's abilities, so everyone got upset with the possibility of evil.
Then-
Shri Krishna said to Draupadi, come with me now-
Shri Krishna reached the camp of Bhishma Pitamah directly with Draupadi.
Standing outside the camp, he told Draupadi that - go inside and bow to the grandfather.
When Draupadi went inside and bowed to Pitamah Bhishma, he-
Blessed "Akhand Saubhagyavati Bhava", then he asked Draupadi that !!
"Watts, how have you come here alone in such a night, has Shri Krishna brought you here"?
Then Draupadi said that-
"Yes and they are standing outside the room" Then Bhishma also came out of the room and both of them saluted each other-
Bhishma said-
"Only Shri Krishna can do to cut one of my words from my other word"
While returning from the camp, Shri Krishna told Draupadi that-
"Once you go and pay homage to the grandfather, your husbands have got life"
"If you would have paid obeisance to Bhishma, Dhritarashtra, Dronacharya, etc. and wives of Duryodhana, Dushasana, etc. would have also paid obeisance to the Pandavas, then perhaps this war would not have come at all".

The root cause of so many problems in our homes at present is that -
"Knowingly, often the elders of the house get ignored."
"If the children and daughters-in-law of the house salute all the elders of the house every day and take their blessings, there may never be any tribulation in any house"
The "blessings" given to elders act as armor; no "weapon" can distinguish them.
