# Disappearance of Yadus

Maharaja Pariksit enquired about the disappearance of the Yadu dynasty and Krishna. Thus, Sukadeva Goswami narrated the Mausala-lila.&#x20;

After Uddhava left, many inauspicious omens were observed in Dwaraka. Krishna thus advised the Yadus to depart for Prabhasa and perform a series of sacrifices there. Upon arrival, they did indeed perform the ceremonies, but the illusory energy suddenly overcame the entire clan as they all became intoxicated, started to quarrel, and gave up all sense of family and kinship. With weapons in hand they indiscriminately seized the cane stalks and brutally attacked each other on the shore of the ocean. In a mad rampage, they even confronted Balarama, causing the transcendental brothers to enter the fratricidal chaos. The entire dynasty, numbering 560 million, was thus dramatically annihilated in one go.&#x20;

Thereafter, Balarama went to the ocean and sat in a meditative state. A great white snake appeared from His mouth, and the serpent, Ananta Sesa, carried Him out of the world. Following His brother’s disappearance, Krishna sat on the ground, at which time the hunter, Jara, accidentally shot His left foot with the arrow made from the iron remnants of the cursed club. The hunter was horrified and begged forgiveness, but Krishna reassured him that it was a divine arrangement, and He thus sent Jara to Vaikuntha.&#x20;

Before leaving, Krishna informed Daruka to relay news of His disappearance to the residents of Dwaraka, and inform them to immediately relocate to Indraprastha. Dwaraka, He said, would soon be submerged into the ocean. With a heavy heart, Daruka left.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://bhagavata.keshavaswami.com/canto-11/s.u.m/m-mausala-lila-30-31/disappearance-of-yadus.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
