asmānsaṃtāpya bahuśaḥ sarve te nidhanaṃ gatāḥ
vāsudevaṃ samāśritya pañca śeṣāstu pāṇḍavāḥ //

Yudhiṣṭhira, the son of Kuntî became the Lord of the world after the great Mahâbhârata war. He was very much depressed by the grief of the death of his kinsmen. He said to himself:—“King Duryodhana, the master of armies of eleven akṣauhinîs, and the other kings who were his allies, are slain, causing me much pain and anguish; and we, five brothers, sons of Pâṇḍu, are alive under the shelter of Lord Kṛiṣṇa.—2-4.
