Hello everyone...this is my first topic in IF😃.
Today they showed how Kunti ordered her 5sons to divide whatever they got as Daan. They all became shocked and shattered and Kunti was mortified after discovering the Truth- that she had told to divide a woman between 5 men.
Everyone were shocked and hurt even Draupadi but still she showed her sheer valour to question Kunti and Arjun about her situation. She asked them what was her fault in this whole accident!? or incident.(Naturally normal human would have been broken into pieces and loathed herself hell). She accepted what fate gifted her or we say her father gifted.
Now I have some irritating questions in my mind...
1.Kunti wanted to revised her order but Yudhishthir rejected so why?? was there no way to reverse Kunti's words?
2. Bheem said while Arjun would marry Paanchali. the other 4 brothers would take Sanyas...because after Kunti's words they had become ___________________???what exactly Yudhishthir and Bheem intent??
3. What is exactly Draupadi's situation?? As she garlanded Arjun she supposed to be wife of Arjun. But thanks to Kunti's words she became the same to other 4 brothers. SO what is she right now??
I hope I will get my answers so thanks in advance everyone.

I think the story says Yuddishtir and the other brothers loved Draupadi too. Perhaps that is why he didn't want his mother to reverse.

We are talking about a different Yug altogether. So as a son it was the duty of the offspring to obey whatever his mother asked him to do. In short words that is what the Pandavas did.
1.) If you've seen the episode you see that Yudhishtir tells his mother that words can't be taken back. He gives her the example of how by mistake Dasharath (Lord Rama's father) kills Shravan Kumar's parents and reaps the curse inspite of the innocence in it. So no, word vomits were a pain in the ass even during those days!

2.) A Sanyaas is a person who gives up all the worldly pleasures and lives an austere life. That is what Bheem meant when he said the other 4 were going to turn to the path of austerity. This would mean they couldn't marry, they couldn't live a lavish life and thus Draupadi would remain only Arjuna's.

3.) Draupadi was a strong woman who had the same advantage like any man in those days to take more than one spouse! Yes, she was termed many horrid things like 'wh**e' etc. But she married all five of them and proved to be a faithful, devoted wife to them, although she secretly loved Arjuna the most.

Hi All,
According to Mahabharat epic , the story is like in draupathi's previous life she had asked Lord shiva to give a husband who follows dharma and never lie like yudhishtir and strong as hanuman like bhima , a very good archer like arjuna , a very handsome man like nakul and a silent person like sahadeva , but Lord shiva ll tell that she cant find all the qualities in one person but she ll accept for five husbands so only knowing or unknowingly kunti uttered those words, everything is decided firstly kunti is just a means
