TRANSLATION

Sri Hari or Lord Sri Krishna after residing at Hastinapur for a few months for the matter of pacifying the relatives and for pleasing His own sister (Subhadra)


PURPORT

Krishna was to start for Dwarka, His own kingdom after the battle of Kurukshetra and Yudhisthir being enthroned; but by the request of Maharaj Yudhisthir and to show special mercy to Bhismadeva, Lord Krishna was held up at Hastinapur the capital of the Pandavas and the Lord decided to stay specially for pacifying the aggrieved king as well as to please Subhadra, sister of Lord Sri Krishna. Subhadra was specially pacified because she lost her only son Abhimanyu who was just married and the boy left his wife Uttara mother of the posthumous child Maharaj Parikshit. The Lord is always pleased to satisfy His devotees in any capacity. His devotees only can play the part of His relatives otherwise the Lord is Absolute.
