The Disappearance of the Yadu Dynasty and Lord Kṛṣṇa’s Departure
इति सर्वे समाकर्ण्य यदुवृद्धा मधुद्विष: । तथेति नौभिरुत्तीर्य प्रभासं प्रययू रथै: ॥ १० ॥
iti sarve samākarṇya yadu-vṛddhā madhu-dviṣaḥ tatheti naubhir uttīrya prabhāsaṁ prayayū rathaiḥ
雅度族的长老们听闻灭摩度者圣奎师那之言,齐声应诺:“如是。”遂乘舟渡海,又乘战车前往普拉婆娑圣地。
After hearing the instruction and intention conveyed regarding the journey, the Yadu elders agreed (“tatheti”) and traveled—crossing by boats and then by chariots—to the sacred place Prabhāsa, where the next events of Kṛṣṇa’s concluding pastimes unfold.
Madhudviṣa is a name of Śrī Kṛṣṇa, meaning “the slayer of the demon Madhu,” used here to address Him as the central figure guiding the Yadus’ actions.
The verse highlights attentive hearing, respectful consensus among elders, and purposeful pilgrimage—encouraging devotees to listen carefully to dharmic guidance and act in a unified, disciplined way toward spiritually significant goals.
