Guys just remembered one thing. Was thinking of posting this since yesterday. But somehow couldn't.
I have been talking about the dynamics of Prakriti-Sanskriti, now let us see how this dynamics work and how we can recognize societies where Prakriti is superior, Sanskriti is superior or it has the intermingling of Sanskriti and Prakriti. And then I will try to draw a parallel with MB
First let us take Lanka. What rules Lanka. The uncontrolled, unbridled Prakriti. Look at Kaikasi and her untied hair. She is a woman with Mahatwakamsha and uses everything including her son as a means to get power. Or rather Prakriti makes Sanskriti its servant. What are the character of such a society. Utter lack of maryada. Complete selfishness. They will do whatever they want to get what they want. But they expect others to exhibit read anyone outside the family or their kingdom to exhibit maryada. We can see this quality in all the daily soaps where we have the loud dominating saas and sasur is just an armycandy or a side kick in the show. And reason why women love these type of shows is because such women believe with son they get power. Son is not an individual but a means to get power. In such families we mostly see sons who go out and torture woman, and daughters just like their mother. Crossing line of maryada, now and then. Every problem of theirs is because of someone. Sanskriti by being subservient to such an unbridled, unrestrained Prakriti is bringing destruction onto themselves. And such a society can be saved only when a woman who has Gowri in her, but can become a Kali for this society comes there and which forces the Sanskriti or rather good sanskriti to raise voice and come out. Just like Sita coming and finally fed up Vibishan leaving Lanka. I will delve more into this as episode progresses.
Now let us take Ayodhya. This society is ruled by Sanskriti. Unlike the society controlled by Prakriti where you can directly see the problems, the problem with this society is that you cannot see the problem from outside. This society seems to have rules. But in reality the rules are applied different for men and women. If you see Lanka anyone in the blood relation of Kaikesi can break maryada, though it does not apply to her DIL mandodari or her grand DIL Sulochana. A society controlled by Prakriti is more driven by blood and that blood applies to both sons and daughters. But when it comes to a society controlled by Sanskriti sons have one rules and daughters have another. It doesn't matter which relation. A society controlled by Sanskriti or where a man is given more power than women is a hypocrite society. It is very difficult to break this society or change its mindset. And it can be done only by a man who applies the same maryada to himself or applies the same rules to himself what he expects the woman in the family has to follow. When he is willing to walk the path that the society has asked his sister, mother, wife to walk. Only a man who has immense love and empathy and who has the knowledge that he coexists with Prakriti can bring about a change here. But he cannot do that alone. He needs a woman who understands him, understands his compulsions and the one who can support him in bringing about this change. Many men and women has to undergo Agnipareeksha to bring about the change in a hypocrite society.
Let us finally come to Mithila. How is this society looks. From front end Sanskriti takes all the decisions, Prakriti allows Sanskriti to do so. But Sanskriti knows from where the source of power comes and gives Prakriti due respect. A society where both Sanskriti and Prakriti co exists life thrives, civilization thrives. And at every point it should be our endeavor to reach this point. Prakriti needs to understand Sanskriti has to be in front taking decisions, and Sanskriti needs to understand the power with which he is making decisions comes from her. Prakriti is the source of power, but she has to let it go to the deserving man, and the man receiving it has to acknowledge that power. Then as a society we will thrive.
And now coming to MB. What was Kuruvansh. A family which was created by the lust of a man an the Mahatwakamsha of a woman or that of a woman's father. Some version say it is Satyavati's Mahatwakamsha, but say it is her father. Whatever that family was ruled by the unbridled Satyavati.
And why did the problem come. As I said in families ruled by unbridled Prakriti blood bond matters. Why Bhishma stood with Kauravas than Pandavas. One of the key things was Pandavas were not Pandu's blood, they were not Satyavati's blood. They came through Kunti, through her mantra, while Kauravas were Satyavati blood. The blood matters. And as I said to break such a society a woman who can be Kali, but has Gowri has to come, so that she can liberate good Sanskriti. And in that family comes Panchali who is aided by Krishna to finally establish dharma. If you see after doing everything Satyavati's blood is wiped from the throne of Hastinapura.
And Kaikesi escapes such fate because of Vibishana.Where he saves the kul and family.
In Ramayana it is easy to see because it is seen as different kingdoms. But in MB it is within family and presently we might have to dig into the past of our families to understand what kind of family we belong to. Sometimes it will be a mix. Because correction is possible only if we understand why we are the way we are.
