When was the first gada yuddha between Bhima and Duryodhana?

First ever gada yuddha between Bhima and Duryodhana took place during the test that was conducted at the end of the training of Pandavas and Kauravas. Bhima and Duryodhana collided with each other like two huge elephants. The spectators divided among themselves and started cheering Bhima and Duryodhana. The crowd was in rage and uncontrollable.

What is cosmic dissolution?

The duration of a Kalpa is 4.32 billion years. At the end of the Kalpa, a pralaya called Braahma-pralaya occurs. This is also called Naimittika pralaya or cosmic dissolution. In this pralaya, the three worlds- Bhuloka, Bhuvarloka, and Swarloka are completely destroyed. The occupants of Maharloka shift to Jana-Loka and live there till the beginning of the next Kalpa. At the beginning of the next Kalpa, the universe is created from Maharloka downwards. Padma Purana.Srishti Khanda.
