Guys making quick post as typing from mobile .today best scene was ram making kumbhakaran attack him and then goes to kill him.Vishnu Maya in all its glory. Kumbhakaran knows attacking ram is his way to Moksha. He does it.why ram made kumbhakarna attack. Because he has dharma. Ram cannot attack a person with dharma. He can only defend if dharma attacks to protect adharma. So attack from kumbhakarna was necessary. The last line from kumbhakarna. When last time came I cannot pray before u made me cry and ashish was superb when he sends arrow with his eyes full of compassion

Non episode related. Very life related.
Today, when I was in lab, my HOD came and yelled at me, telling me that I can't do what I want, and expect people to dance with it. I didn't understand what it was about for a second. Then I remembered that yesterday, I had given a letter to the office on behalf of my classmates to go for an immunisation camp, which I did not attend. But as the leader, I had to go and do my duty, and for a mistake I didn't make, I was yelled at. And then I drew parallels.

Shri Ram was blamed for sending Sita away. And he did make the final decision, but it was the people's fault. A good king is one who listens to his people. Raghunath was in Dharma-sankat there, Purush Dharm or Raja-Dharm. Raja Dharm won over. Wasn't that though the case with Dharmaraj also? In the Dyut Sabha, he was in Dharma-sankat as well.

Similarly, Gandhari blamed Shri Krishna for everything.

@KrishnaPriyaa
Yes, I agree with that. He was in Dharm-sankat in the Dyut Sabha.
He probably realised that Dharma wouldn't allow him to stake them all in the first place, but he was tied down by the rules of the game of dice, designed to humiliate them.

A camp for creating awareness on Hep-B. He isn't against it, just us taking permission a little later than usual.

He is just trying to discipline I guess.
We were informed a day before in the afternoon. And he wasn't there. So, we asked a senior teacher what to do, and she told us to write a letter and submit it. He got angry with that.

@Ria what is ego. I am right. This is the way things are as per the rule. We forget this is the way things are as per my understanding, but I don't feel this is right. I cant do anything. When you cant do anything, succumb or call for Lord's help. One who succumb blaming the circumstances is because of ego. He thinks his half knowledge is the correct one. One who feels I don't know what is happening, but whatever it is it is not right. I believe the supreme power can help me.

When MB gets narrated in my childhood days my great aunt had told me when Panchali was calling Krishna she was still holding her saree with one hand, and calling him with one hand.
Krishna at that time is playing dice with Rukmini. Rukmini says go Panchali calling, she needs your help. Krishna tells not now. He plays.
Panchali leaves her saree, lifts both her hands, surrendering herself to him, leaving her ego. Krishna comes immediately. That holding saree was said to be her ego. Even when you call, you have to surrender to him. I cant do anything, I surrender myself to you. Help me.
If you see in SKR also there is a Shiv-Parvati scene where Shiv asks Parvati after she goes to help Sita. Did she call you. Was her life in danger. Then why did you go.
Reason is we always have to try with Purusharth-Dharma, artha, Kama to reach our goals, but when our dharma doesn't help us, we are faced with conflicts to move forward leave ego and surrender.
Day 14 of MB battle also was Krishna killing Arjun's ego. If I don't kill Jayadrath by sunset I will jump. Arjuna fights hard, but he needs Krishna to complete his mission. Krishna makes him go till the pyre accepting defeat before lifting the illusion. The " I" doesn't help you in surrender. And that " I" is the ego.

@bold- That is why saying Krishna is only mine is not right. When you say Krishna, you have to understand that He is yours, but He is everybody else's. We have to tell Him "i am yours. I have given me to you. Take care of me". And He will. That's what He has done for me.

Shrutha my only take was when ur in dharma sankat don't take decision urself. Ask Lord direction. It will come. He takes ur dharma sankat. If yudhi had called Krishna Lord would have played on his behalf. But when he plays u should not interfere. Man does that. He calls Lord and when Lord plays he will tell Lord how to play.
