Mahabharat Episode Discussion Thread #12 - Page 20

I just couldn't connect yesterday, this is quite usual though. People have stated their opinions already, so I don't wish to repeat currently.
Btw, what was the need to insert that word amid Geeta gyan? 🤢

The battle field appeared so artificial and dowdy. What to say about those bucket sized conches!

Lord waits for the paap ka ghada to fill. Don't we see even to day most sinners live a life of luxury

But than these are matters of faith and can't be proven so it's up to people to draw there own conclusion

If someone wants to call it triumph of the powerful then so be it

I won't indulge on any further discussion on it

I have never laughed so hard in my life! Well...Well!! What do we have here? Ashwathama insulted Draupadi? Refresh my brain please!

I am actually quite upset..this is ridiculous! They brought up everyone and forgot Karna? Oh wait ⭐️krishna will remind ⭐️Arjun when he is down pulling at the wheel! I forgot!

Where is Sanjay and Dritarashta? Did they totally forget about them? Sanjay is suppose to narrating Arjun's every move to Dritarashta! He heard the Geeta as well!

it didn't give me that feel, ⭐️Krishna here is way too pro-Draupadi! ( My opinion do not bash)!!

And what's with the time freeze? looked ridiculous!

And I have read the Gita and am quite familiar with the shlokas...I hope to see improvement in the coming episodes!

StarPlus you are doing a Staralicious job of entertaining the youth with garbage!

I too feel that draupadi's VH was a catalyst for war not the actual reason ..there was no ONE particular reason... for the war... it was outcome of all that had accumlated starting from Satyavati's ambitions...

Shruti. If you actually look at ancient military history, this picture looks so wrong

The chariots should be light and easily maneuverable. The commanders and esp the king should not be front and center. They wear their hair very short (or else it can get used as a weapon against them).

We are the group that invented chess. we must have gotten those ideas from somewhere!

If Pandavas losing their children was punishment for their mistakes, didn't Draupadi & Subhadra suffer as well for no fault of theirs?

UpaPs dying could be passed off as the Pandavas being punished for their sins, but didn't Draupadi suffer the loss of her children too as a mother?

It's not like Abhimanyu was only Arjuna's son, he was Subhadra's son too. What mistake had Subhadra committed to suffer this loss?

Why should children be killed for the mistakes committed by their fathers? What crime had the children committed?

I find this kind of "justice" to be completely perplexing...

Will try to answer this in a different way.
In the epi. Krishna said leaves of a tree are there just to nourish the three. Pandava's Children, other kings, the entire army, were leaves of the existing system. Once their role was over, they had to fall down from the tree. Kurukshetra was chosen to give all those souls good gati at the end of thier lives.
That's why death in a battle field fighting for your country is considered best. The other one is of the yogic soul leaving his body throgh Brhmarandhra & merging in the Supreme consciousness.
We will never get satisfactory answers just by considering one pov.
In Astrology too certain Yogas are mentioned where people who will later unite to achieve a commen goal are born during a particular time period.
If the perspective is of analysing every character's pain, sorrow, justice, injustice then we can never get the clear picture of why such things have happened.
Every soul that is born is part of this Universe. They come with an account of Karmas. How to read, know, analyse this Karmic account, is very difficult for us. That's why we depend on great teachings when our questions are not satisfactorily answered. Then the journey of soul in self realisation begins.
Epics like Mahabhart, Gita are just not to be read. Their are meant to be understood & their lessons are to be implemented in our life.

i dont know much about geeta so wanted to know does in geeta krishna ji say all that he was saying yesterday?Like in geeta does he say that all these people need to die for 'nav nirman' or destruction is necessary for creation etc?Does he say all this in geeta as well

i always thought geeta is more about life and how we should conduct ourselevs properly in life face different situations in life?Is it about that or is it about why kruurshetaar war was necessary and right?

No dear what he said yesterday was not Geeta
