When you do not do your duty well, you will blame others, even the Lord Himself. Later we can see that Gandharidevi cursed Krishna after the war, blaming Him for causing such misery. She could not realize that her children brought up in the blindness of ignorance had lost the right direction long back.
After the war, both Dhritharashtra and Gandharidevi were living in the palace with the Pandavas who cared for them very well. At this time Vidura came back after his Theerthayatra which he started before the war started. Now we can see the way this noble man advises the old king. He showered even hurting words on him asking him “Don’t you feel ashamed to eat the food that Bheema feeds you with?”, indicating that Dhritharashtra deliberately tried to kill the second Pandava for killing Duryodhana. How could this old man relax and continue to live such a luxurious life after all his sons died? This pierced the old heart to the core and he decided to renounce the palace and the comforts and spend his last years as a Seeker of Truth, accompanied by Vidura and Gandharidevi.
