The Last Journey of The Pandavas

 

After the Kurukshetra war and enjoying their kingdom, when the Pandavas learned that Lord Krishna had left his mortal body, they too decided to renounce the world. This journey is known as Mahaprasthana (The Great Departure). During their journey, the Pandavas traveled from the west to the north and beheld the mighty Himalayas. Crossing over them, they encountered a desert of sand. Then, they came across the great mountain Sumeru. The Pandavas, with focused minds, continued to walk with great speed.
