Kunti, Pandavas, Vidura, Draupadi and Subhadra Depart

Chapter 15

When Kunti overheard that Krishna had left, she fully immersed herself in devotional service and attained the Absolute world. Subsequent to Krishna’s departure, the influence of Kali, which was already somewhat present, unfolded to a greater degree. Observing the inauspicious conditions in the world, Maharaja Yuddhistira prepared to leave home, but first enthroned Maharaja Pariksit in Hastinapura, and Vajranabha in Mathura. Maharaja Yuddhistira subsequently relinquished his royal duties, adopted the life of a simple mendicant and travelled towards the North and attained perfection. His younger brothers decided to follow in his footsteps and, by their devotion and dedication, also attained the Absolute world.

Vidura returned to his post as a demigod administrator, while Draupadi and Subhadra, who were also absorbed in thoughts of Krishna, also went back to the Absolute world.
