Kunti also after overhearing from Arjuna all about the end of the Yadu dynasty and disappearance of Lord Krishna, engaged herself with full attention in the devotional service of the transcendence Personality of Godhead and thus became released from the course of material existence.

Setting of the Sun does not mean end of the sun. It means that the sun is out of our sight. Similarly the end of the mission of the Lord in a particular planet or universe does not mean the end of it but it is out of our sight. The end of the Yadu dynasty also does not mean its annihilation but its disappearace along with the Lord's being away from our sight. As Maharaj Yudhisthir decided to prepare for going back to Godhead so also Kunti decided and thus she fully engaged herself in the transcendental devotional service of the Lord which guarantees a passport for going back to Godhead after quitting this present material body. The beginning of devotional service of the Lord is the beginning of spiritualising the present body and thus an unalloyed devotee of the Lord loses all material significance of the present body. The abode of the Lord is not a myth as it is said by the unbelievers or ignorant people but one cannot reach there by any material means like sputnik or others. But one can certainly reach there after leaving this present body and one must prepare himself for going back to Godhead by practising the devotional service. That guarantees a passport of going back to Godhead and Kunti adopted it.

The setting of the sun does not mean the end of the sun. It means that the sun is out of our sight. Similarly, the end of the mission of the Lord on a particular planet or universe only means that He is out of our sight. The end of the Yadu dynasty also does not mean that it is annihilated. It disappears, along with the Lord, out of our sight. As Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira decided to prepare to go back to Godhead, so also Kuntī decided, and thus she fully engaged herself in the transcendental devotional service of the Lord which guarantees one a passport for going back to Godhead after quitting this present material body. The beginning of devotional service to the Lord is the beginning of spiritualizing the present body, and thus an unalloyed devotee of the Lord loses all material contact in the present body. The abode of the Lord is not a myth, as is thought by the unbelievers or ignorant people, but one cannot reach there by any material means like a sputnik or space capsule. But one can certainly reach there after leaving this present body, and one must prepare himself to go back to Godhead by practicing devotional service. That guarantees a passport for going back to Godhead, and Kuntī adopted it.
