Duryodhana refused Lord Krishna proposal to return Indraprashta...

Episode#40

When the exile period of 13 years was over, Vasudev Krishna (as a representative of the Pandavas) headed to Hastinapur and demanded the rightful share of the kingdom, despite of his wife Bhanumati and son Laxmana Kumar pleading for peace, Duryodhana went back on his words and refused to give back there kingdom Indraprashta. The refusal culminated into Mahabharata war that lasted for 18 days in the battlefield of Kurukshetra.

Duryodhana avenged Krishna for not allowing him to marry Subhadra by refusing the peace-pact, if Duryodhana has married to Subhadra and his son to Vatsala - he would have willingly accepted Vasudev Krishna proposal of returning Indraprashta to Pandavas and this great war of Mahabharata could have been averted.

Even after his marriage Duryodhana couldn't forget his first interaction with Subhadra at the bank of Yamuna river, he cannot forget her beautiful face and voluptuous body lying on the stone drenched in a single cloth, he still reminisced over the urge to take her in his arms, hold tightly and never let her go.

Mahabharata hands over a score of love stories - Bhima loved Draupadi, Draupadi loved Arjuna, Arjuna loved Subhadra while Subhadra loved Duryodhana! The same pattern repeated in the next generation too - Samba loved Laxmani, Laxmani loved Abhimanyu, Abhimanyu loved Vatsala and Vatsala loved Laxmana Kumar.

Duryodhana now sought revenge for his unfulfilled love story...!

Gandhari Curse to Krishna

Episode#78 "I curse you Krishna, if I have been a devoted and faithful wife, may my curse come true! Oh Krishna, mark my words - after 36 years from today, you will slay your own kinsmen akin to Pandavas and Kauravas! Your cousins, their sons, and grandsons will kill each other while you  Krishna, will wander alone in the woods and die a lonely and Ignominious death! Your dear ones shall run around the woods in desperation and grief exactly in the same manner as these women are doing now." Krishna allow Gandhari to spew her venomous fury out of her system and accepted the curse calmly and with Grace! He replied with a smiling face, "Your curse is preordained by fate. As none can destroy Yadavas, they are destined to slay each other and meet their destruction at their own hands." She looked at Draupadi "Look Draupadi, your hair is dyed with the blood of my son Dusshasana, but to get that blood, so much of rage was generated that it cost you the lives of your...

Vyasa

Episode#9 The story of the origin of Vyasa was known to a few as he was born in the middle of the night under strange circumstances. The story goes thus - Satyavati, also known as Matasya-Gandha' (since she smelled like a fish) she ferried people across river Ganga. One winter evening, the sun was about to set and she was contemplating to return home but when elderly sage named Parasar requested her to leave him on the opposite shore. Finding improper to decline him, she envisaged her last trip for the sake of the sage, when they were in the middle of the river, the sage expressed his desire to make love to her and have a child by her, with fear and apprehension, she said "if I bear a child, no one will marry me". The sage comforted and promised her, "do not worry, with my magical powers you will bear a child now but also regain your virginity." He also blessed her that she will never smell of fish; instead she will emit fragrance of flowers that all men wil...

Episode#42 When Vasudev Krishna heard about Samba he was distressed and he asked his elder brother Balarama help to rescue his son. Balarama readily agreed to go to Hastinapur to rescue his favourite nephew. Since Balarama was Guru of Duryodhana, he was welcomed in Hastinapur with great dignity in the presence of all elders of Kuru family including Duryodhana. Balarama apologized for Samba's childish act and requested them to pardon him! The Kauravas were perplexed about Laxmani impending marriage! Balarama assured them they would gladly accept Laxmani as their daughter-in-law, but Duryodhana was against the marriage as he was not ready that his qualified daughter marries to illiterate brat Samba that too the son of his enemy Krishna - today he was in such a dilemma and had a no choice but to accept Balarama proposal...! After a long silence Duryodhana replied "With all due respect to Guru Balarama, I cannot disobey your order, but you will understand my feelings as a fath...
