The silence that is ruling the ashrams that existed nearer to Ganga bank amazed Draupadi who is finding it difficult to get into sleep. She is sitting in the backside of Gandhari's hermitage which is nearer to Ganga shore. Gandhari slept just then after Draupadi nourished her feet with lep by force. Gandhari talked continuously expressing her pain of her sons'death and praising the nobility of Pandavas . She said." Bahu... This is the last phase of our life. I don't know again I will see you or not. Our time is approaching nearer. "
Gandhari caressed Draupadi and said." I feel grateful to Mahadev for sending you into Kuruvamsh. Because of you our whole clan is glorified. I bless Phalgun for bringing you into our lives."
Draupadi sat on the wooden steps which were arranged to help Gandhari get down. Subhadra Uttara and Parikshit shared a hermitage while Chitra and Ulupi occupied another. Kunti's sons slept in her hermitage making places for them around her. Pragati is with her and slept hugging her close.
Panchali remembered the narration of Suka and a beautiful smile appeared on her lips.How fateful that war is.. It motivated her birth ...She emerged from fire for his sake.. But did she remain his only?
Truly you remained mine in a transcendental level.That is the truth Krishnaa." Arjun's husky voice electrified her whole entity.soul and body.
Arjun enveloped her in his arms and whispered." Not able to sleep? Went back to the first phase of our love I think...
Draupadi looked at him defiantly." Who told you so? I just did not get sleep. So just enjoying the tranquility that I found after a long time. "
Arjun smiled bewitchingly. " Say it looking into my eyes. Queen... Don't tell lies. Ever since the story is narrated we both got effected .
Panchali seriously asked." Really Arjun! You got effected?
Arjun admitted honestly." Yes. I did, I wanted Suka to continue the story till you emerge from fire.I wanted to hear Vyasa's vision that will present my Krishnaa open her eyes and walk down the fire pit. to reach her destination... I feel gratified that I am the one who could get connected to her indirectly..
Panchali got tears in her eyes. He is honest. She only is always hesitating,doubting about her place in his heart.
Arjun asked curiously." What are your first thoughts after you emerged from fire?
Panchali smiled through her tears." I looked around.I found everything strange.Then my father pampered me like I was a small baby. Then one evening I asked him why I was born as an adult.He said." You are born for Arjun and there is one Arjun in Aryavarth.I wondered who that Arjun is who could motivate my birth.
Arjun smiled back and wanted to say something but stopped on seeing the desciples of Vyasa walk towards Ganga shores.
Next day brought gloom for every one as Vidur who is roaming away in the forest in yoga state renounced his physical body in the presence of Yudhishtir. A bright light from his body entered Yudhishtir.
Ved Vyas explained later." Vidur and Yudhishtir are born from the same God. The God of righteousness. Dharma Dev appeared in two forms. Vidur's purpose is finished. So he reached his destination. Don't grieve for him.
Wind God is born as Bheemsen. The twins are Aswini gods. Arjun is Nar Maharshi Krishna is Narayan. Arjun has Indratej also.
Don't grieve for Vidur. He is still alive in Yudhishtir.
