Draupadi reliving her bitter memories...

Episode#52 (One year completed)

Draupadi was reliving the bitter memories - she remembered Dusshasana callousness that had broken all the barriers of decency, he has grabbed her by the hair which was loose down to her waist and he dragged her all the way to the Hall of Dice, she tried to escape but he dragged her again by hair and threw her on the floor little caring to the elders who were seated there.

She saw Bhisma Pitamah, Guru Drona, Kripa, Karna and many others, though present, neither of them raised a single finger to neither express their displeasure nor put an end to the outrageous happenings, they chose to glued to their seats with bowed heads and sealed lips.

Draupadi, in a fit of scornful rage burst like a volcano - she turned to face the elders and questioned them "How can my husband ever use me as a pawn when he has already lose the game? Where is the righteousness of kshatriyas? If this is justice then how would you define injustice?" But her rational thoughts fell on the deaf ears, only Vidura and Vikarna raised objections - but to no avail owing to their feeble designations, she was stripped in public in front of elders and kings and her husbands Pandavas yet no one stopped him for doing this sin, yet no one stopped Dusshasana from condescending to the lowly act.

She shouted with all her might "I will take my revenge and I shall destroy all those have humiliated me!"

Just than a maid walked in her room and gave the news that Arjuna had kept down his bow unwilling to fight! Draupadi stood up with rage-filled blood-shot eyes and screamed "If Arjuna is unable to take the revenge of my insult and humiliation, then I will fight the war myself, I will kill both Duryodhana and wash my hair with Dusshasana blood!" The wind dishevelled her open hair, as if getting ready for the said ordeal...!

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.

Mahabharata: Moral of the story

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.
