Honestly i keep swinging in between believing it and not. polyandrous like it is mentioned that she was married to all the five. Still there are many instances throughout the epic that prove otherwise. Like you take this particular example. She blesses him. If you read CE there dushashan part is not there. She talks on behalf of all the pandavas and herself and blesses him/wishes him luck a typical Bhabhi devar scene. Husband and wife are equal. So why will either of them "bless" the other. ?? I will never use i bless thee" for my husband.

Actually blessing could be given to husband as well especially when the husband is going to do something very important. We generally have into our mindset that elders bless younger, that however isn't a mandate religiously

Ik this is MB forum but I wanted to ask does anybody know the story of Sawan month...If then please tell me😆

Disagree. There are mention of her pining for him too in front of her other husbands and to satyabhama from what I have read.

No there is no pining from her side at all. Read the text. Nothing to satyabhama or any other husbands. There is a scene which Vaishampanya narrates omly because janemya asks him too that whether or not anybody miss arjuna. There too its yudhishtra and drapaudi not only drapaudi. There was absolutely no pinning from her side only his

Drapaudi pinning for arjun is just another myth about her nothing else.

Could you provide citation?

The missing him more than suffering from assault was removed by CE as interpolation. The part where Janmejaya prompts Vaishampayana has her saying she misses both Arjuna and Pundarikaksha Pundarikaksha is KRISHNA, not Arjuna. She doesn't say anything about Arjuna to Satyabhama.

The one and only sign of any romantic feeling from her side is when Subhadra comes home. Even there, the word actually used in Sanskrit CE is pranyaat. ie, out of love. So Panchali asked Arjuna to go to Subhadra out of love? Does that make any sense?

Sorry arjun never pinned 4 draupadi infact ulta hai , ardi fans always portray Draupadi pinning 4 arjun by presenting different text like draupadi's anger on arjun bringing subhadra , draupadi saying something about missing arjun when he was leaving to get Divya Astra in exile & draupadi taking pain to meet arjun after he return from swarg etc.

Most text r from draupadi side , which shows het pinning only atleast what ardi fans project .

They say arjun insulted Yudi by taking Draupadi's bed name on seventeen day argument b/w Yudi arjun.

Originally na draupadi or na hi arjun ke pass itna time tha ki vo kisse ke liye pine kare as both were 2 busy

Actually, not true.

1) After Subhadra haran, Arjuna didn't have to go and beg Panchali for forgiveness. text says he does.

2) Arjuna was the only one to break ranks in dice hall.

3) Vyasa called Panchali Arjuna's love, not the other way around.

4) When Panchali taunts him after the Upakeechaka incident, Arjuna's response is the picture of heartbreak

5) Arjuna taunts Yudhishtira about sitting on Panchali's bed. They say in vino veritas. ie, in wine, there is truth. In anger also there is truth. After years and years, Arjuna's angst finally exploded.

I don't think begging for forgiveness was for subdhara per se as panchali clearly asks him to go to subdhara out of love. Rest i agree with everything

Oh no. He pinned for her. He pinned only for HER. ONLY PANCHALI is called as his "love". HE on the other hand is never called her love. HIm expressing depth of his love for her is mentioned. Hers is removed she never talks about missing him or her separation paining him. She talks collectively on behalf of her and other pandava. He exclusively talks about depth of his lover for her. He lashes out at his elder brother for her. He declines yudhishtra right over him for panchali in an open court.

Arjun pinned for her. Panchali didn't.

We can agree to disagree coz I know what I m saying & strongly stick 2 it .

It was draupadi who is termed as partial not arjun
