Duryodhana’s Post-Duel Lament and Instructions (भग्नसक्थस्य विलापः)
नागसाह्दयमासाद्य प्रविवेश च वीर्यवान् । महाराज! पराक्रमी भगवान् माधव उस रथपर बैठकर हस्तिनापुरमें जा पहुँचे। वहाँ पहुँचकर उन्होंने नगरमें प्रवेश किया
nāgasāhdayam āsādya praviveśa ca vīryavān | mahārāja! parākrāmī bhagavān mādhavaḥ sa rathopari niṣaṇṇaḥ hastināpuraṃ jagāma | tatra prāpya nagaraṃ praviśya (iti bhāvaḥ) |
ヴァイシャンパーヤナは言った。ナーガサーハダヤに至ると、その勇者はそこへ入った。王よ、勇猛なる主マーダヴァはその戦車に座してハスティナープラに到着し、都に至るや城内へと入った。

Educational Q&A
Even after decisive events like war, dharma requires returning to the center of responsibility—governance, accountability, and restoration of order. The movement toward Hastināpura symbolizes facing consequences and re-establishing rightful rule rather than abandoning society to chaos.
Vaiśampāyana narrates that Lord Mādhava (Kṛṣṇa), seated on a chariot, reaches a place called Nāgasāhdaya and then proceeds to Hastināpura, where he enters the city.
