Inauspicious Omens and Arjuna’s Return from Dvārakā
सप्त स्वसारस्तत्पत्न्यो मातुलान्य: सहात्मजा: । आसते सस्नुषा: क्षेमं देवकीप्रमुखा: स्वयम् ॥ २७ ॥
sapta sva-sāras tat-patnyo mātulānyaḥ sahātmajāḥ āsate sasnuṣāḥ kṣemaṁ devakī-pramukhāḥ svayam
দেবকী প্রমুখ তাঁর সাত স্ত্রী—যাঁরা সকলেই বোন—তাঁরা নিজেরা, তাঁদের পুত্রগণ এবং পুত্রবধূগণ কি সকলেই মঙ্গল ও সুখে আছেন?
This verse notes that Devakī, along with Krishna’s sisters and their families, remained together seeking kṣema—auspicious welfare—during the crisis following His disappearance.
Śukadeva describes the condition of Dvārakā’s royal family after Krishna’s departure; the women of the Yadu household, led by Devakī, are shown staying united and seeking protection and well-being.
In times of loss or uncertainty, remain connected with supportive family/community and turn one’s heart toward auspiciousness—seeking steadiness, protection, and dharmic well-being rather than panic.
