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...!

Mahabharata: Moral of the story

Episode #98 The End This is the last episode of my book Mahabharata Janani Janmabhoomi. Mahabharata is the history of kings and sages, essence of all sacred texts, beautiful in language, with subtle meanings and logic. It is a great storehouse of knowledge adorned with beautiful words and rhyme. With the evolution of the universe, evolved the inexhaustible seeds of all it's inhabitants, movable and immovable, earth, water, wind, years, seasons, all came into existence.  The epic covers a time period of about one thousand years, roughly 800CE to 400AD. It is the longest epic written till date. It is the handicraft of multiple authors. It traverses a time span of one thousand years and not a single day or year.

Mahabharata war - Day 15 Fall of Acharya Drona.

Episode#69 On the fifteenth day, the war did not cease even after the sunset but continued as mentioned before in Torchlight. The Kurukshetra field presented strange sight with burning torches - the generals and soldiers on both the sides we're engaged in battle, thousands of torches burnt and were used as signals, devised for night time. Ghatotkacha and his troops of demons (who are stronger at night) found darkness an additional advantage and violently attacked Duryodhana army. 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...
