Paila was a devoted student of the great sage Vyasa. Vyasa had five main disciples: Sumantu, Jaimini, Paila, Suka, and Vaisampayana. These five helped spread the Mahabharata, making sure that people learned and remembered the great epic.
Paila was the son of a man named Vasu. He was present
at the Rajasuya ceremony of King Yudhishthira, a grand ritual that showed
Yudhishthira’s power as a ruler. This is mentioned in the Sabha Parva of the
Mahabharata (Chapter 33, Sloka 35).
Later, when Bhishma was lying on his bed of arrows after the Kurukshetra war, many wise and noble people visited him to seek his wisdom. Paila was among them. This event is recorded in the Santi Parva of the Mahabharata (Chapter 17, Sloka 6).
Paila played an important role in preserving and spreading the knowledge of the Mahabharata. His dedication helped pass down the great epic to future generations. Through his efforts, people were able to learn about dharma (righteousness), devotion, and the lessons of life found in the Mahabharata.
