..very well detailed and explained Dear. I am thanking you from the bottom of my heart for making such knowledgable thread.Originally posted by: princessofkesar
he gives message on basis of incident to be applied to the present situation , does not tell what happened was rite /wrong n who is correct /wrong in that situation, ultimately leaves us to think the same situation in different way before judging the things only based on our pov.
for eg pandu did so much of remorse , n he was gud at heart . anyone would have expected that he should be freed from curse by now which he got for accidental death of that rishi.
but wat was mistake of pandu - killing the two people ? no he is king n Kshatriya he can't be so careless n overconfident while using weapons, due to his actions two innocent people lost life.
wat punishment he got - that wenever he will come close to his wife he will get closer to his death n die.
so his punishment was he will be life long deprived of physical relationship with his wife , , which he had to suffer in this life.
wid remorse n by doing tyaag he made himself stronger to bear it.
but this does not reverse the curse , he has to complete the punishment . his slightest weakness for few min gave opportunity to death to take away his life.
this is the angle krishna expected to see us , he does not say pandu should have died or pandu killed rishi intentionally
all he says wen u commit mistake , n if u r given certain amount of punishment u have to face it , its u r prarabdha /fate due to ur karma.
wen u do remorse along wid it , n gud karma , the intensity of punishment , pain suffered due to punishment gets lessen as during this process we are already strong to face it.
