To answer this fully, the following does not come under the Mahabharata
  • Krishna's birth
  • Krishna's childhood & gurukul
  • Wars against Jarasandha
  • Marriage w/ Rukmini, Jambavati & Satyabhama
  • War on Narakasura
  • Killing of Rukmi, Paundrak & Dantavatra
  • War on Banasura
The following does come under the Mahabharata
  • Killing of Jarasandha & Sishupala
  • Killing of Shalva
  • Satyabhama's conversation w/ Draupadi
  • Destruction of the Yadavas
Aside from this, there are some items not mentioned in the Mahabharata, but which do involve the Pandavas & Kauravas. Like in Krishna's marriages to Kalindhi & Satya, Arjun was there to help him. Then there was Krishna's son Samba abducting Duryodhan's daughter Lakshmanaa. Plus other things involving the Pandavas or the Kauravas that didn't get mentioned in the Mahabharata.

The answer to my question is Abhimanyu & not Ashwathama😊

Ashwathama had half knowledge of Brahmastra just like abhimanyu had half knowledge of Chakravyuh😊

i still say ashwathama because abhimanyu only knew how to enter the chakravyuh but not to break it and exit it 😊 ashwathama knew the entire chkarvuyh both entry and exit tactics apart frm krishna and arjun..

In the Mahabharata, Yudhisthir tells Abhimanyu that only Krishna, Arjun, Pradhyumna and Abhimanyu knew how to penetrate the chakravyuha. So there is the answer.

Addressing Abhimanyu, that slayer of hostile heroes, who was not inferior to Vasudeva himself and whose energy was superior to that of Arjuna, the king said, 'O child, act in such a way that Arjuna, returning (from the Samsaptakas), may not reprove us. We do not know how to break the circular array. Thyself, or Arjuna or Krishna, or Pradyumna, can pierce that array. O mighty-armed one, no fifth person can be found (to achieve that teat). O child, it behoveth thee, O Abhimanyu, to grant the boon that thy sires, thy maternal uncles, and all these troops ask of thee. Taking up thy arms quickly, destroy this array of Drona, else Arjuna, returning from the fight, will reprove us all.'


Of these, Arjun & Krishna were off to fight the Shamshaptakas, while Pradhyumna didn't participate in the war, so it ultimately fell on Abhimanyu 😭

Kalindi.

My question: What is common to the swayamvars of Draupadi and Lakshmanaa (the wife of Krishna; not Duryodhan's daughter) ?
