Vaiśampāyana said: A dark woman with white teeth, entering at night laughing, ran through Dvārakā, stealing women away in their dreams. Ornaments, parasols, banners, and armor were seen being carried off by most terrible rākṣasas. And that iron discus of Krishna — the one given by Agni, with its vajra-hub — ascended into the sky before the eyes of the Vrishnis. The divine chariot of solar color, fully yoked, was borne away by the horses before the eyes of Dāruka; those four excellent steeds, swift as thought, circled above the ocean. The palm tree and Garuḍa — those two great banners honored by Rāma and Janārdana — were carried away on high by the apsarases day and night, and voices said: "Let the pilgrimage be accomplished."

The omens multiply in dread succession: the dream-thief prowling the city, the plundering demons, and — surpassing all — the ascent of Sudarśana, Krishna's discus, and the departure of His horses and banners. These signs proclaim not merely the doom of a dynasty but the withdrawal of the Lord Himself: His weapons and chariot, companions of His earthly pastime, return to heaven before Him. What is ending here is not one royal line but an entire age of His manifest presence. When the Lord departs from the world, His divine instruments depart first, for they descended together with Him in service of His līlā; and these portents are not the triumph of destruction but the quiet furling of a divine play, in which weapon and banner alike return to their celestial source.
