"So do you, Arjuna, take my good sister away by force; for at a svayamvara, who indeed knows her intention?" Vaishampayana said: "Then Arjuna and Krishna, having decided what was proper to do, sent swift men to the King of Dharma, who had gone to Indraprastha, to inform him of everything; and, upon hearing it, that mighty-armed Pandava gave his consent."

Here the matter is arranged with the elder's consent and the Lord's blessing. It is significant that Arjuna does not act willfully but sends word to Yudhishthira and awaits his consent: even what Krishna has approved, he does not carry out without his elder brother's will. In this lies the twofold rightness of the deed: it is pleasing both to the Lord and to the head of the family. Thus scripture shows Arjuna's respectfulness; and the marriage with Subhadra, blessed by Krishna and approved by Yudhishthira, is established upon dharma.
