Nārada’s Account
फिर हाथमें हार लिये बहिन माधवीको रथपर बिठाकर पूरु और यदु--ये दोनों भाई आश्रमपर गये ।।
nāgayakṣamanuṣyāṇāṃ gandharvamṛgapakṣiṇām | śailadrumavanaukānām āsīt tatra samāgamaḥ ||
সেই স্বয়ংবরে নাগ, যক্ষ, মানুষ, গন্ধর্ব, পশু, পাখি এবং পর্বত, বৃক্ষ ও অরণ্যবাসী প্রাণীদের এক শুভ সমাবেশ সেখানে উপস্থিত হল।

Educational Q&A
A dharmic and publicly significant rite is portrayed as drawing a broad, harmonious witness—across human, semi-divine, and natural realms—suggesting that righteous order resonates beyond a single community.
Nārada describes the scene at that event: many kinds of beings—Nāgas, Yakṣas, humans, Gandharvas, animals, birds, and forest and mountain dwellers—assemble together, emphasizing the grandeur and auspiciousness of the occasion.
