Yadavas : descendants of Yadu. Yādava is used as an epithet of Krishna, who was born in the Yadu line. Under him the Yādavas established a kingdom at Dwārkā. The city was submerged by the ocean after Krishna withdrew from the body, & all the Yādavas who were present in the city perished. A few who were absent perpetuated the race, from which many princes & chiefs still claim their descent. [See Devagiri]
... nations between Duryodhana and Yudhisthere. Personal relations like the matrimonial connections of Dhritarashtra's family with the Sindhus and Gandharas and of the Pandavas with the Matsyas, Panchalas & Yadavas doubtless counted for much, but there must have been something more; personal enmities [counted] for something as in the feud cherished by the Trigartas against Arjouna. The Madras disregarded matrimonial... the same cause. The Eastern nations, heirs of the Ixvaacou imperial idea, went equally solid for Yudhisthere. The Central peoples, repositories of the great Kuru Panchala tradition as well as the Yadavas, who were really a Central nation though they had trekked to the West, were divided. Now this distribution is exactly what we should have expected. The nations which are most averse to enter into an ...

As long as cruel Karhsa is there, how do you Yadavas get on? Your life must necessarily be like that of sheep under the protection of a butcher. 42. What enquiry shall I make of the welfare of the subjects of a cruel king like Kamsa whose pleasure consists... unattainable to one on whom the Lord, the abode of Śrī , is gracious? But, O King, devotees crave for no benefits. 3. After supper, the Lord conversed with Akrūra on the condition of his clansmen, the Yadavas, under Kamsa, and about other matters concerning his mission. The Lord said: 4. O dear friend! I hope your journey was pleasant. Are all our kinsmen doing well? 5. When our reputed uncle, Kamsa ...

... A condition which one cannot retain by the inherent light and power of the Knowledge Will in it is not the supermind as I know it. Sri Krishna when asked by Arjuna after the destruction of the Yadavas to repeat the sacred lore of the Gita, replied that the teaching of the Gita came into him once but that it was no more and he could not repeat it. Can one who has attained to the supermind fall? ...
... oppression was necessary that the people as a whole might be disposed to accept Nationalism, but Nationalism was not born of oppression. The oppressions and slaughters committed by Kansa upon the Yadavas did not give birth to Krishna but they were needed that the people of Mathura might look for the deliverer and accept him when he came. To hope that conciliation will kill Nationalism is to mistake ...
... invention of the Greeks, but as in the older Aryan systems, was taken individually from each Councillor. The King was the final arbiter and responsible for the decision, except in nations like the Yadavas where he seems to have been little more than an ornamental head of an aristocratic polity. Finally, the Commons in the Mahabharata are not represented by any assembly, because the times are evidently ...

... obliging to the one who is his favourite, who loves him unreservedly, who identifies himself with him,—as in oneness of sunshine with the sun. Arjuna would address him in endearing terms as “O Krishna, O Yadava, O Comrade;” he would speak to him in jest and be informal “at party, on the couch, and the seat and the banquet.” Now he makes himself bold and asks him to show him his universal Form. No doubt he ...
