[51] Pūrṇimā said: "This was indirectly vowed at the pilgrimage to Kurukṣetra by the brother of Śrī Rāma, in order to relieve the suffering of the slender-bodied people of Vraja who were the objects of his affection, taking the destruction of the enemy faction as the limit. And the destruction of the enemy faction ended precisely with the battle with Vidūratha and Dantavakra. For after that, holding weapons in hand was personally laid aside by him. Therefore, this view of the Padma Purāṇa, the abode of all joy, is understood to share the same conclusion as the Śrīmad-Bhāgavata."
