We don't have any clear indications right about whether they moved or not? In any text?

I haven't come across any such text

I meant I don't want to believe that she went to Dwarika

Yes I suppose there's a beauty in her pining for Krishna for the rest of her life too. It's very sad, but poetic too.

There is; there are so many songs about this too. Some texts say she was reborn as Vakula Devi in Kali Yuga, because as Yashoda she never got to view one of Krishna's marriages and wanted to see him being wed in another life, so Krishna granted her wish by calling her "mother" as Lord Balaji in Kali yuga, and she got to see him wed Devi Padmavathi.

As Radha says to Uddhav, much as there is pain in love, there is love in pain too. One can only feel so much pain when they love another individual deeply, and isn't only the blessed ones who get to call themselves the Mother of God, even if it means to feel so much pain?

One can only imagine what Devaki and Yashoda went through in their lifetimes, but in the end of the day, they are honored as Krishna's mothers.

That's so very beautiful hun!

Yashoda never went to dwarika. Yes once balram alone went to gokul meanwhile when balram went to gokul then at time krishna was at dwarika and killed paudrak

But after second time balram and krishna went to gokul along with his families I think vasudev, devki I didn't exactly remember but I feel pandavas and draupdi also went to gokul

Actually pandavas, draupdi, vidur Bhishm gandhari kunti nand maharaj, yashoda did not meet vasudev krishna devki balram in gokul but in kurushetra

There was solar eclipse then all yadavas( except anirudh and kritvarma who remain stay at dwarika)

Went to lake to take bath. That lake created by parshuram

Then after bathing yadavas saw their old friends and there

Nand maharaj, yashoda, devki rohni pandavas, pandavas wives bheeshm vidur gandhari kunti vasudev ( devki husband) balram gopis meet each other and also other brother and sister of kunti meet each other

Kunti complain to his brother vasudev that he forget his sister when she was in trouble then vasudev ( devki husband) it is matter of fate I can't meet u because kans torture us

Misunderstanding of kunti is clear

Both brother and sister has suffered at same time

I'm not entirely sure I believe in the solar eclipse story. It sounds a little odd and out of place to me, particularly Kunti blaming Vasudev of "forgetting" her. After all, once Devaki and Vasudev were released from prison, they had ample opportunity and occasions to meet the Kuru family. Krishna, Balarama and the Pandavas themselves met many many times. Why wouldn't their parents? It makes no sense. Moreover, we know for certain they met when Subhadra married Arjuna, as that's mentioned in MB itself lol, and I'm sure they met during the Rajasuya yagna, and other important occasions.

Did Krishna Balram meet Pandavas before Draupadi Swayamwar?

I doubt it's specifically mentioned. Maybe Bheem since he took training from Balram but not others perhaps

Aside Krishna didn't know about Arjun's 12 years/13 months exile when he reached.

But yes they should have met during Rajsuya Yagya. Not sure about Subhadra marriage because they married during abduction

Here is above link from Shree madh bhagwat where kunti complaining to vasudev

https://vedabase.io/en/library/sb/10/65/

Above link when balram went alone to vrindavan

Actually dwarika was never left totally empty someone always stay there to look after security of dwarika

In rajasuya yag devki and vasudev did not come only Lord krishna and all 16108 wives and sons there to attend rajasuya yag

While balram devki and vasudev stay at dwarika

And after afterwards Lord krishna send back samba and other son back to dwarika from rajasuya yag while Lord krishna wives and Lord krishna stay at indraprasth for many months

https://vedabase.io/en/library/sb/10/71/ here is link when Lord krishna travel to indraprasth

In solar eclipse too anirudh and kritvarma stay at dwarika only

Another thing balram first met to kauravas during samba marriage while pandavas and kunt were in forest after escaping from laksh grah

When pandavas were in laksh grah then balram stay at mithila where Lord balram teach duryodhan mace while Lord krishna went to akroor ji t at dwarika to take swayamank gem from him

When satrajit ( satyabhama father was murdered) by a king ( I don't remember exactly his name who murdered satrajit) then at that time krishna and balram went to console Bheeshm Dhrithrast in hastinapur though Lord krishna and balram already know pandavas are alive

When pandavas were in forest during laksh grah then at that time balram went to hastinapur asking kauravas to let samba free and at that time laxmana and samba get married

Regarding subhdra and arjun I think both have gandharv vivah ( love marriage) I don't think they have bhram vivah as Arjun take subhdra away

I said gandharv vivah because subhdra also fell in love with Arjun when balram invite Arjun for dinner

Though subhdra fell in love with Arjun but she didn't not disclose her with anyone while Arjun disclose his feelings to Lord krishna that he want to marry subhdra

During Lordwhen Lord krishna and ruknmini marriage happens at dwarika then at times too kunti was staying at forest along with pandavas after escaping from laksh grah

Here kunti and vasudev cannot meet other at ruknmini and Lord krishna marriage because kunti was in forest at that time
