The Udyoga Parv significantly unfolded the Nar Narayan truth through many great people of those times. We observed how Bhishma disclosed the identity. Now we will see the great Parasurama speak . He validates the fact that Krishna and Arjun are Narayan and Nar.

It was the time when Sanjaya visited Pandavas at Upa Plavya and indicated the intention of the blind King that Pandavas should not venture war and restrict themselves from demanding their rightful kingdom, After he left Kriahna became the chosen one to go to Kurus as the ambassador of Pandavas.

Krishna started for Hastinapur along with Satyaki and his prominent officers. Arjun warned Satyaki.' Be alert,Don't believe Duryothan, Don't let Madhav go alone. I have my own doubts regarding Duryothan's intentions." Krishna heard him and laughed.' Parth don't worry, If he does something I will teach him a lesson." Arjun smiled and said,' I know you don't need protection. Still I can't help it." Krishna hugged him close and promised , I will return as soon as possible."

As he reached Kusasthal Krishna met Sage Narad,Kanva and Jamadagni who welcomed him heartfully.Narad requested.' Lord,we would like to be at Hastinapur when you meet Dhritarashtr.We also will try to inject sensibility in his foolish mind."

Krishna accepted their request and made them gratified. He camped at Vrikaprasth and sent messengers to Dhritarashtr that he will arrive in Hastinapur the next day. Dhritarashtr called Duryothan and asked him to make proper arrangements to welcome Keshav. Offer him precious gifts that attract his eye,Win his heart by doing so."

Vidur retorted harshly.' King do you think you can lure Vaasudev with gifts? What can you offer him?do you think you have something that equals Arjun's love and devotion for his Madhav? You think Keshav will leave Arjun and join your side? Please come out of your trance. If you want to please Govind,just do whatever he suggests."

Duryothan who listened this admitted proudly.' Pitasri I am making plans to capture Krishna as a prisoner. Then Pandavas will become helpless.They will keep quiet."

Dhritarashtr scolded him and warned him.' Don't attempt such sinful things.Stay away from Vaasudev." Bhishm got angry and left the father and son.Dron also did the same.

In the morning Krishna received great welcome . After that he informed Duryothan that he will stay with Vidur and went to meet Kunti.As he touched her feet Kunti wept bitterly.'

Are my sons happy? I am the unfortunate mother who is witnessing their unending troubles. And my daughter in law,the pious Panchali who always treated me with great regard. Because of me she countered many troubles.Keshav my sons always followed your counsel.But now they are overpowered by the cruel fate. Whom shall I blame? I can't blame Duryothan even as he is Gandhari Didi's son. He is also like my sons. I think I should blame Akasavani who predicted great things at the time of Arjun's birth."

Great piece!
But the little thing I don't understand here is how does Akashvani figure into their troubles?

Yanmam vagabravit naktam sutake Savyasachi nah

Putraste Prithvim Jeta yasasyasya divam spriset.

On the night of Savyasachi's birth when I am lying in the room an invisible voice said." This son of yours will conquer the earth and his fame will touch heaven.

Hatva kurun...rajyam prapya dhananjaya: bhratrubhi: sa: kaunteya: treenmaghan karishyati.

He will defeat the Kurus in the battle and get back the kingdom. He will perform three grand sacrifices along with his brothers.

Naham nabhyasuyami... Dharmaschediti varshneya ...I am not doubting that. If dharma is not a myth certainly he will achieve whatever the invisible voice said.

Krishna consoled her with his soft words.' Bua,don't worry. Your sons are noble and follow dharma at any cost . They will get back their kingdom with their valour.You will see the prediction of Akasavani become true. Very soon they will be emperors again. Your daughter in law conveyed her regards to you. They are looking forward to touch your feet and serve you . They are bent upon doing whatever you say."

.Krishna had his lunch at Vidur's house in the company of his Bua and Pragati. Vidur's wife is a great devotee of Krishna and served delicious food to him with so much respect. Afterwards Vidur arranged comfortable bed for him and even pressed his feet.

He asked Krishna with folded hands.' Madhusudhan,Why did you come to Hastina? Duryothan decided he will not give back kingdom to Pandavas. Don't go to Kuru Sabha. He may do harm to you."

Krishna smiled his devine smile.He assured Vidur.' Mahatma Vidur If I don't try to make peace People will criticise me. It is my duty to try my best. Dont worry. None can harm me in any way."

In the morning Krishna went with Satyaki to Kurusabha.Narada,Parasurama and Kanva accompanied him.Krishna addressed Dhritarashtra in his magnetic voice.'

Maharaj,you looked after Pandavas since their childhood. After Pandu's death they treated you as his father. They made you proud with their achievements and by performing Rajasuya Duryothana out of jealousy robbed their kingdom in the Dice game. Still they patiently spent twelve years in Exile and one year incognito.Now they are requesting you to give them back their kingdom.

Maharaj,they are righteous. Do justice to them and avoid destruction of your race.I hope you remember Parth's valour when he defeated all your warriors and got back Virat's cattle. That he did alone. Now I will be Parthsarathi. I will drive his chariot.None of your warriors can stand before us.So take a good decision and flourish With your family."

Parasurama warned Duryothan.' You know who Krishna and Arjuna are? They are Devine sages Nar Narayan.They took birth as Brother in laws to serve the Devine purpose. Nar defeated Dambhodbhav with great ease . Likewise Arjun will defeat Karn without any doubt.Maharaj tell your son not to have rivalry with Krishna and Arjun.

Protiti at the time of Arjun's birth Akash Vani predicted he will defeat the rivals and make his brother Chakravarti Samrat. He will make him do Rajasuya Aswamedha etc. Akash Vani predicted so many heroic deeds of Arjun. Kunti is desparate since she has to see her sons suffer having lost their kingdom. So she is impatient and blames Akashvani for predicting great things that still she is unable to witness them happen. I will give you the exact verse shortly.

Dussasan warned Duryothan.' If you stay here you will be submitted to Krishna by our revered elders. Then he will take you to Dharmaraj by force. So leave the Sabha now itself.Duryothan got up and walked out along with Dussasan,Karn and Sakuni.
Dhritarashtr sent for Gandhari to council her son.Gandhari entered the Sabha and questioned Dhritrashtr.' Who will stop you if you give Pandavas their kingdom? Why do you listen to your son? Fault lies with you only." Having said so she asked Duryothan who came to her reluctantly.' My son, Why are you bent upon destroying your own race? Don't wipe off our happiness by causing death to your whole family before our eyes. Don't become a prey to Bheema who will fulfill his oath of killing you all. Go and make peace with Dharmaraj. Phalgun will extend a friendly hand to you if you go with Krishna. Don't spoil the opportunity." Duryothan again went off and started discussions with Karna and Sakuni.

Krishna observed this and told the king.' When my Uncle Kamsa became a Tyrant I killed him and saved our family. Similarly if you push Duryothan away compromise becomes possible.Leave him and save Kuru Vamsh." Duryothan listened to this and started planning to bind Krishna and imprison him.Satyaki observed this and informed Krishna.The Lord got angry and fiercely admonished Duryothan.' Foolish Duryothan you think I am alone and helpless? Is it possible to bind me with anything? " So saying Krishna displayed his Virat Rup that is not possible to see with naked eye. Duryothan and others became motionless and could not look at his glorious form.Krishna gave Devine vision to Bheeshm,Dron and even to Dhritarashtr who requested him to grace him vision.Siva appeared in his heart. From his mighty shoulders Haldhar Balram and Gandiv Dhari Arjun appeared. From his back the four Pandavas appeared. Agni is seen in his face. Surya Indra and other deities adorned his form. Bheeshm,Dron and Vidur had tears in their eyes on seeing the Devine form. Dhritrashtr asked Krishna to take back his vision as he doesn't want to look at other things after seeing the Virat Rup.

Then Krishna became normal and addressed the assembly.' You all had seen my efforts to bring peace between Kauravas and Pandavas. But Duryothan refused to oblige. Is it so Duryothan? " His question made Duryothan confess strongly.' I don't want to offer Pandavas the land that is required to put the tip of a needle. That is my decision." Krishna got up and declared.' So be ready for war. The fire called Arjun will burn the Kuru forest. The war will commence as per Duryothan's wish

Note Arjun and Balram appeared at the shoulders of the Virat rup. Both are Narayan's ansh so they are at the shoulders while the four pandavas came from the back

The study of Nar Narayan reality can not be done without observing the comradiare,inseparability and mutual admiration that we feel between Krishna and Arjuna .

Ever since they met at potter's hut they lived in each other though they are away from each other. Arjun's submission to Krishna and Krishna's reciprocation really prove the uniqueness of their bonding.

Krishna always supported Parth by giving him confidence and moral support.

The selection of the commander in chief of the Pandava army is an instance to validated he fact.

In studying these facts I took liberty to imagine the scene without changing the spirit and soul of the original one.

It has been more than one month since the marriage of Uttara and Abhimanyu happened. War will start after twenty days sharp. The preparations are going on at a faster pace. That evening turned to night which brought immense joy in Pandavas camp.

Uttara complained of giddiness and was examined by Raja Vaidyaa who declared the good news,Uttara is pregnant . Every one is elated and are in high spirits. Krishna sighed in relief.' The purpose for getting you married to Subhadra has been served. Aryavarth will have a successor to Kuru throne,' He told Arjun who was confused and irked.

' Madhav you always talk in riddles.How could Abhi get the throne when Prati is elder to him? I can't understand' Krishna replied in a firm voice' I talked about Abhi'sson not Abhi or Prati.'

Arjun stared at him trying to grasp the essence of his words. Krishna pulled him up and dragged him ahead abruptly diverting his attention.' Let us go and attend the meet to discuss about the commander in chief . your Eldest gets tensed up if we are not in time.After that we will enjoy being grand fathers to be and celebrate with the ladies.'

Arjun smiled at that and felt great, He still remembered holding Abhi first time in his arms , Now his little Abhi will hold his son.Yudhishtir asked his brothers who will be the Sarva SenAdhipati for the Seven Akshouhinis army that will fight on Pandava side

.Sahadeva said ' Virat. He with his army is loyal to us. Let him be the commander of the whole army

Nakul proposed Drupad's name. ' Our Father in law with his experience can guide our army well '

Bheem said Sikhandi.' He is born to take revenge on Pitamah, We should make him Senapati'

Arjun expressed his opinion' Dhrisht Dyumn with his great understanding of vyuhas can counter the plans of Kauravas Also he is equipped with weapons that were granted by the firegod I think he is young and energetic to bear the pressures of war.'

Yudhishtir asked Krishna his choice' Krishna said' I will vote for Dhrishtadyumn for the same reasons as told by Parth. Let him be the Senapati' .

Needless to say how the wavelength and thought process of the friends is in sink with each other. If one proposes the other immediately supports . Krishna and Arjun think alike,talk alike and act alike. After all they are Nar Narayan born with a purpose.
