Vaishampayana said: Having returned from Hastinapura to Upaplavya, Keshava, tamer of foes, told the Pandavas everything just as it had happened. After conversing at length and deliberating with them again and again, Shauri then went to his own dwelling to rest. When all the kings headed by Virata had been dismissed and the sun had set, the five Pandava brothers performed the evening rite; their thoughts turned only to Krishna, so they invited Krishna Dasharha and resumed their counsel. Yudhishthira said: "O lotus-eyed one, when you went to Hastinapura, what was said to the son of Dhritarashtra in the assembly? You should tell us this."

Krishna recounts to the Pandavas how Bhishma tried to restrain Duryodhana by the force of his own example. The account of Bhishma's own vow shows that the dharma of a family demands not proud possession but self-restraint for the sake of preserving the family and its rightful inheritance.
