Shishupala Vs Pradyumana Multiple Gurus

Shishupala roared with rage and, ascending his chariot, released the brahmastra bestowed upon him by Dattatreya. However Pradyumna neutralized this weapon with his own brahmastra. 


Then Shishupala released the angararastra given to him by Parasurama on Mount Mahendra. When this weapon is also was neutralized by Pradyumna, 


Shishupala applied gajastra, which was awarded to him by Agastya Muni in the Malaya mountains. From this weapon came four streams of elephants, who began to destroy the Yadava army. To resist this weapon Pradyumna called on Narasimhaastra that produces monsters in the form of a half man-half lion, who began to devour these elephants. 


In the end, Shishupala grabbed his sword and shield, jumped from chariot and rushed to Pradyumna, like a moth throws itself on fire. Pradyumna burned down his sword and shield with his yamadanda, 


and then tied him with the bonds of Varuna. 

Then when Pradyumna raised his sword to kill Shishupala, Gada intervened and stopped him with the words: “He should only be killed by Krishna. This is the prediction of the demigods. You shouldn't contradict the words of the celestials."

Kritavarma returned to his kingdom after the war and was later killed by Satyaki in Dwarka during the final departure of the Yadavas, as we find in the Mausala Parva of the Mahābhārata.

18000

The Surasena Yadavas, consisting of the eighteen younger branches of the Yadavas with their 18000 brothers and cousins, arrived at the conclusion that even if they fight continually they still could be unable to do anything unto Jarasandha even in 300 years. They fled from Mathura, towards west. They rebuilt the old town of Kusasthali(see:Cortalim), and renamed it Dwaraka. It was a Yadava stronghold. Yet, due to the oppressions of Jarasandha, Yadavas where obliged to migrate further south, to the mountains of Gomanta, measuring three Yojanas (a unit of length) in length. Within each yojana were established, 21 posts of armed men. And at intervals of each yojana were 100 gates with arches which were defended by valiant heroes engaged in guarding them. Innumerable Kshatriyas invincible in war, belonging to the eighteen younger branches of the Yadavas, were employed in defending these works. (2,14)
