The following events happened. Speaker 1 (2:28) Sri Krishna Paramatma related people also, due to that old age, they left their bodies. After that, they could not fight, could not recite any mantras, they lost even by holding Gandhi's hand for the first time. After that, they were amazed by the Vedavyasa Bhagavan, the words he said. Speaker 1 (2:56) After saying all these, Dharmaraju said, I think this is the time to make a great progress, Arjuna. Because, time is making all the lives' actions to be perfect. I think there is a perfect situation in our matter also. So, the work that we should do now is, and also test all the karmas. So, I think that your mind also thinks the same way, Arjuna. If you also accept, it would be good for us to do Mahaprasthana together. Let us test the karmas. After saying this, Arjuna replied, Speaker 1 (3:50) لَسَّقَنَا لُوكِنْشِتِي إِذِي هِتَمُ أَبْحِمَةَمُ نَوُنَّ There is no other thing in this world that can be compared to time. Time is a time itself. The entire world is born with time. Time is growing. Time is becoming a life. They are being reborn by following the actions of the living beings. Time is... They are doing their deeds with the feeling of happiness and sorrow. I cannot see anything stronger than time. After saying this, they all decided to make a grand entrance. After that, they called Dharmaraju's son and said, Speaker 1 (4:41) The river that leads to the history of the world is called Neyambalaran. The way that the Yuyutsu was appointed and how he should rule the kingdom, how he should behave in the end, how he should be friendly, how he should manage the activities, he was taught about the two things, at home and outside. He gave a great importance to the Yuyutsu. Speaker 1 (5:08) Because he was a young man. Speaker 1 (5:34) He was proud of his family and he was ready to go to the great place with his wife and he called Subhadra. Speaker 1 (6:11) O Subhadra, I have given this kingdom to Abhimanyu, who is your son, and have given him the throne. Likewise, I have given Indraprastha to a son of Sri Krishna, who is a son of Lord Krishna, as the king. Speaker 1 (6:30) I have made a declaration. The moon family is important to us, but the other family is also important to us. So, as these two families are proud, as both are happy, you should be careful. You should be brave and save these two families. Speaker 1 (6:54) She said that both the kingdoms will be in the same place. Because Subhadra is the sister of Sri Krishna, she will have the freedom to see the other side of the world. Speaker 1 (7:13) When the musal was born, the musal was burnt and mixed with the water of the ocean, and the musal was made into weapons, and the people of Varakana, the Lord of the Lord Krishna, all of them were killed one by one. So, Dharmaraju, with his special love, respect and affection, Speaker 1 (7:41) He made great donations by saying that he was the one who died in the battle of Kshetra. He made many more donations like elephants, horses, cows, gold, and gold. He also called the priests of Dhaumyadi and donated food and other things to them. He also made the Krupacharya proud and happy. Speaker 1 (8:08) Dharmaraju said, you should study this test from the Guru's place and see it as if you are in the world. Dharmaraju gave the test with great happiness. Then he called all the people who were there and said that we are going to do Mahaprasthaan. Speaker 1 (8:33) The people were allowed to take their own decisions. When they were born, they were shown the beauty of sitting, and the dream of being able to do things without any reason, and the dream of being able to see the state of their dreams, and the reason for the advent of the Kali Yuga, and the reason for the advent of the Kali Yuga, and the reason for the advent of the Kali Yuga, and the reason for the advent of the Kali Yuga, and the reason for the advent of the Kali Yuga, and the reason for the advent of the Kali Yuga, and the reason for the advent of the Kali Yuga, and the reason for the advent of the Kali Yuga, and the reason for the advent of the Kali Yuga, and the reason for the advent of the Kali Yuga, and the reason for the advent of the Kali Yuga, and the reason for the advent of the Kali Yuga, and the reason for the advent of the Kali Yuga, and the reason for the It is good to complete our lives. Now our lives are enough from here. Saying, they took off all the jewels, left the clothes, wore the clothes of the Lord, and wore the silk clothes. All of them together went to the great place. Dharmaraju, Bhima, Arjuna, Nakula, Sahadeva. Draupadi Devi accompanied the five. Along with them, a dog walked as the seventh. The dog also started to travel with the help of the six people. Speaker 1 (9:38) When Dharmaraju was about to leave for Mahaprasthana, everyone tried to come with him. He said, you all should wait and then he walked away without talking to anyone. Arjuna, who had become his wife, went to Nagalokan. Chitrangada went to Babruvahana. The rest of the wives of Bharata dynasty stayed near Parichitta. These Pandavas, 5 of them, Draupadi Devi and Kukka, these 7 of them, made a great journey and reached Ganga river with the desire of fasting. Speaker 1 (10:37) They went to the sea of the sea, crossing the mountains, rivers, and rocks, and went to the sea near Turupu. Speaker 1 (11:26) He gave a vision to them. Speaker 1 (11:41) Arjuna, Speaker 1 (11:47) Since the need to establish Dharma was fulfilled, and the task of saving the people by killing as many people as possible in the Kurukshetra was fulfilled, the Srikrishna Paramatma, a Sudarshan Chakra, went to the sky. You are still holding on to the desire for Gandiva. I brought Varun to this earth with the intention of establishing Dharma. Speaker 1 (12:16) It happened to you. You have lost many in the Kuru Kshetra to establish Dharma with that Gandiva. Its use is over there. I have to return it to Varunudu. So, you have to release that Gandiva in this sea of fire. He said. That Gandiva is the greatest love to Arjuna. But to achieve Yoga, there is no need to have any arrogance or hatred on anything. So, to make the words of Agnihotra to be heard, immediately, Arjuna sent Dharmaraju, Bhima, Nakulu, Sahadeva, and the elders and the younger ones, and set them free in the sea of Turpa. After setting them free, they travelled like that, and crossed many places to reach the land, and reached the land of Miruparvatha. Speaker 1 (13:13) After he left, when he walked away, due to the lack of the power of Yoga, due to the lack of the power to move, it was not physical, but the power related to Yoga, due to the lack of the power of Yoga, the power of Yoga, the power of Yoga, the power of Yoga, the power of Yoga, the power of Yoga, the power of Yoga, the power of Yoga, the power of Yoga, the power of Yoga, the power of Yoga, the power of Yoga, the power of Yoga, the power of Yoga, the power of Yoga, the power of Yoga, the power of Yoga, the power of Yoga, the power of Yoga, the power of Yoga, the power of Yoga, the power of Yoga, the power of Yoga, the power of Yoga, the power of Yoga, the power of Yoga, the power of Yoga, the power of Yoga, the power of Yoga, the power of Yoga, the power of Yoga, the power of Yoga, the power of Yoga, the power of Yoga, the power of Yoga, the power of This woman never got dharma, she is very lucky. When asked what was the reason for that, Dharmaraju replied, In the history of five devotees, the one who has the right is the green leaf. Arjuna loved it very much. Because of that, he couldn't achieve the yoga siddhi. Because of that fault,
