Dhruva stood  like a fool when Bhagavan disappeared after granting him all that one could ever imagine and aspire in life.

Vidura asks Maithreya, “Why was Dhruva unhappy? His devotion was not pure as he wanted worldly fame and success. Yet he achieved the most difficult, which even ardent seekers with pure Bhakthi seldom achieve.  So what made him discontent?”.

Maithreya answers , “Dhruva realized that he had not asked what he should have truly asked! Whatever he wished and got was perishable and would never bring liberation. His mother had directed him to God, Guru advised him how to access Him; but nobody told him what to ask from God!”.

Dhruva blamed himself for his unwise choice and wishes, “I didn’t ask for Sayujya Mukthi from the Supreme who can give any thing and every thing! I am like a beggar who begged for some grains to the emperor who would have given gems”.

Dhruva’s return was like a festival for Uttanapada and his country. The King went with his two wives Suneethi and Suruchi and elder son Uttama in a gold decorated chariot. The entire country rejoiced and welcomed the brave prince.
