II SHAHEER SHEIKH II ** Vijaya ARJUNA ** AT#6 - Page 31

"Arjuna said, 'They called me Dhananjaya because I lived in the midst of wealth, having subjugated all the countries and taking away their treasures. They called me Vijaya because when I go out to battle with invincible kings, I never return (from the field) without vanquishing them. I am called Swetavahana because when battling with the foe, white horses decked in golden armour are always yoked unto my car. They call me Falguna because I was born on the breast of the Himavat on a day when the constellation Uttara Falguna was on the ascendent. I am named Kiritin from a diadem, resplendent like the sun, having been placed of old on my head by Indra during my encounter with the powerful Danavas. I am known as Vibhatsu among gods and men, for my never having committed a detestable deed on the battle-field. And since both of my hands are capable of drawing the Gandiva, I am known as Savyasachin among gods and men. They call me Arjuna because my complexion is very rare within the four boundaries of the earth and because also my acts are always stainless. I am known among human beings and celestials by the name of Jishnu, because I am unapproachable

and incapable of being kept down, and a tamer of adversaries and son of the slayer of Paka. And Krishna, my tenth appellation, was given to me by my father out of affection towards his black-skinned boy of great purity.'

@rushi

'Arjuna' didnt have anything to do with his skin color ... Arjuna in latin is argentum which is more apt for 'Bright' and 'Silver' or more simplified as Shweta/white .Arjuna was named so because he had a silver glow around him, watery or quick silver ... an extremely rare complexion ... but more so because he was to be of 'stainless' personality and 'pure' character.

Hence the Shweta/white thing which signifies purity and taint-less personality thing.😆😆

But his 'skin color' was 'Krishna' - dark because Arjuna said so himself.😆

cheers madam.🥳
