Yudhishtira seeks benediction from Bhisma...

Episode#50

Yudhishtira crossed the lines of armed soldiers, walked straight to Bhisma Pitamah, touched his feet and said humbly, "Pitamah permit us to fight this battle, unfortunately we dare to fight against you, our own unconquerable and incomparable Pitamah, but not without seeking your precious benediction!"

Pitamah replied "Born in the Bharat-race, you have acted according to our code of conduct, go ahead and you will experience victory! I am however, bound by obligation to the throne of Hastinapur and I must fight for the Kauravas, but I assure you that you will not face defeat."

Yudhishtira approached Guru Drona who blessed him saying "I and Aswasthama are morally bound to serve the King as he has provided us with food, shelter and basic amenities as per the norms.

I cannot deviate from their obligation without violating the laws of loyalty and righteousness as it would amount to treachery. We may have to battle against you but nevertheless victory is yours."

Yudhishtira also approached Kripa and king Salya for their blessings and returned to his regiment.

Duryodhana heart sank when he saw thousands of his men destroyed by Ghatotkacha and his demon army moving in the air and attacking in strange and unexpected ways. The warriors begged to Karna "Kill this fellow at once, Karna, for otherwise, soon our whole army will cease to be. Finish him without delay!" Karna himself was angry and bewildered, having been wounded by one of the Asura arrows. He had with him the spear which Indra had bestowed to him, but as warned, it could be used only once, and...

Gandhari: My son Duryodhana was invincible...!

Episode#81 Gandhari says "I do not envy the victory of Pandavas and ibagree that my intense grief has robbed me of my understanding! These Pandavas also are my sons. I know that Dusshasana and Sakuni brought about this destruction and that Arjuna and Bhima are not to be blamed! My sons deserve the fate they have met - only because of their flase pride and vanity I do not complain about it. But in Vasudev Krishna presence,  Bhima challenge Duryodhana to battle and knowing that Duryodhana was stronger and could not br defeat in a single combat, Bhima struck him below the naval and killed him! Vasudev Krishna continued to be an indifferent onlooker! This was against righteousness and it is this that I find it impossible to forgive." Bhima, who heard this, came near and said "Mother, I did this in self-defence, whether is was right or wrong, you should bear with me. Your son was invincible in combat a d I had to resort to self-defence what was undoubtedly wrong,  but then ...
