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...!

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...

Episode#68 News of Arjuna's oath reached the enemy. The spies informed Duryodhana that Arjuna, having learnt that Jayadratha was the cause of Abhimanyu death, had vowed to kill Jayadratha before sunset the next day. Vriddhakshatra, the illustrious King of Sindhi's was blessed with a son Jayadratha. During his breath, a voice was heard to say: "This prince will attain great glory in the happy regions above after being slain in the battle. One who, among the warriors of all ages, ranks among the most illustrious, will in the field of battle shall get his head severed from the body." All living beings must die but truth is always bitter! Vriddhakshatra was grieved to hear the voice declare his son's end. In his disturbed state of mind, he uttered a curse "He, who shall cause my son's head roll down on the ground, his head shall be burst at that very moment into fragments." When Jayadratha grew up to his manhood, Vriddhakshatra handed over the state ...
