@Rush, let me give you some examples:
- In yesterday's episode, Madhav says that talent, dharma and courage that needs opportunity (avasar) is not really talent, dharma and courage. This is a subtle dig at the people who says Arjun had all the chances to show his talent, courage and dharma. In roundabout way, he is saying even if Arjun did not have chance he would have shown his courage and talent.
- In Virat war, he did not need any special armour to stop the hail of arrows. This was again sneaky scene by CVs to show Arjun's invincibility.
- He never had any antagonistic views towards Karna. He always had high esteem for Karna's archery sklls. They were rivals, yes, but he never thought of Karna as his enemy until VH. CVs has shown this thru his various 'pranipaats' and nods to Karna. He was always magnanimous and a mahanayak should be magnanimous
Hope this gives you an idea what I am trying to convey.
So right! Arjuna was never the one to conspire behind enemies back to sneakily get rid of them -- like was he involved in trying to burn his enemy to death without giving him a chance to fight?
he wasnt the one to make plans to swiftly and quietly kill his opponent while he was helpless and in despair in the forest so that Arjuna could have some peace. Arjna simply didnt care enough to actively try to kill his enemy with stupid conspiracies.
Arjuna was not that person and that is what makes him better than even the apparently greatest of men.
You know how positive thinking and mentality attracts positive friends, opportunities and events in life -- negative thoughts and mentality attract negative friends, events and chances.
how true is that -- everyone -- even the gods and divinities were helping Arjuna -- showering blessings and boons -- Krishna put Arjunas life above his own and everyone elses -- that is not because arjuna was a special snowflake -- that was because Arjuna made himself that person who deserved all of that.
Was arjuna ever actively trying to harm enemies with pesky plans out of the battle field -- no, he was happy enough living his life and loving his friends and family -- he actually could spare enough time to actively hate on others and make it a full time job because he was always awesome like that.
