When we talk of Niyog, we should also have a logical explanation for the multiple times. I mean Yudhi was a perfectly healthy baby, so what was the need to subject Kunti to that experience again? And why did she have to agree to it? Niyog was a matter of need, not greed, wasnt it?

A crack theory...

In some books that I have read about Ramayan & MBH the authors often say that the Vanars, Dev, Gandharva, Apsara, Yaksha, etc were people from different lands. What we would call foreigners? Land unexplored & unknown to our heroes. Travelers.

Maybe Yaksha can be one such traveler from a far off land who once came upon the brothers. Travelers have their supplies, food, water & all. Now travelers are often enthusiastic about learning about the culture & thought processes of the people, philosophies, beliefs of the new lands they travel to. He comes across the other brothers who ask him for water as there is not a source of drinking water anywhere nearby. For whatever reason he refuses them, they get in to a fight & he knocks them unconscious. When Yudi comes he tells yudi that he killed his brothers. Yudi need not know that his brothers are just unconscious & not dead. He needs to get his brothers bodies back but the Yaksha has questions for him. If he answers them he gets back each brother at a time. Hence he answers all the questions which this Yaksha poses before him? Rather than a test, its more of a discussion. He is thirsty for knowledge. The brothers for water. They exchange their resources...and go about their own way😛

The second time can be explained with the "heir & spare" practice which almost all Royals follow. But why the 3 more spares??

Maybe Pandu wanted a son like this and a son like that... Sounds strange for sure..but 😆

But we still need to solve the mystery about why on Earth Pandu left his kingdom when there was no curse?

Good idea 😃

But why will he have to lie to earn knowledge? I think Yudhi would be more than happy to educate him 😆 (Atleast I am sure Sema's portrayal will be that way.)

The third spare of Kunti, no answer. But Madri may have wanted children of her own and hence Pandu asked her also for Niyog?
