Story of Dhritarastra's blindness.

After the Mahabharata war was over, Dhritarastra

upset over death of his hundred sons, asked Sri Krishna

the reason for his blindness despite the fact that he was a

kind and just king. Sri Krishna asked him to meditate

and after meditating he realized that it was the law of

Karma that was in action. Dhritarashtra in his earlier

reincarnation was a tyrant king, who one day while

walking on the lake side saw a swan bird surrounded

by hundred cygnets. He ordered to remove the swan

bird's eyes and kill all the hundred cygnets just for his

passing fancy. Therefore, in this birth he was born

blind and all his sons were killed in the war.

Thanks for the information I had no idea about this but may be I read it or heard not sure exactly. But your story reminded me of Bheesh's sin in his childhood.

When Bheeshm was a child he saw a worm who was in the soil moving around Bheesm saw it and took a nail and started piercing that worm with nail and he continued to do so till that worm died. Therefore, Bheeshm got the same death he had given to that worm.

Jaisi karni vaisi bharni

In mahabhaart Karm and Dharm has always been pradhan and why just mahabharat in all the purans veds as well
