At the end of their rule, Pandavas decided to retire. It was
time for them to bid good bye to civilization. Draupadi died during the final
journey of Pandavas and it is mentioned in the Mahaprasthanika Parva.
Draupadi followed her husbands to the great snow-clad
mountains in the Himalayas. Draupadi slipped and fell as they started climbing
the Himalayas.
Bhima soon realized that Draupadi was about die. He asked to
Yudhisthira as to why Draupadi had fallen as she never did anything evil.
Yudhisthira told Bhima that Draupadi had reaped the fruits
of her actions. She was partial to Arjuna. She desired Karna. She manipulated
Bhima.
The brothers who had decided to give up all ties climbed the
mountain leaving Draupadi behind.
