Drona-Eklavya case: i heard that as Drona promised Arjun to make the best and Eklavya was better than Arjun to fulfil his promised Drona asked for Eklavya's right thumb.

Thank you for including my friend's guru-shishya relationship too. And calling it "the best and most ideal Guru- Shishya in MB" - βΊοΈ
So once again, thank you for calling this relationship, the best. You made my day.

Yes, Krsna is everyone's friend - sakhya margam. And by guru, are you punning? Of course, Lord Krishna is everyone's guru, but if you understand what I am asking...?
Krishna was not an established or a famous guru. To Arjuna, Krishna had always been an equal. Arjuna had called him by name- Hey Krishna, Hey Sakha-and sometimes even derogatorily - Hey Yadava. [/quote]Ah, Hey Krishna Hey Yadava Hey Sakheti.The friendship ofKrishna and Arjuna had been on equal terms.But as Arjuna realized, the present situation ( his sudden unwillingness to fight) was not one where he could treat Krishna as a sakha. If he truly wanted to be pulled out of the well he had fallen into he would have seek Krishna's help in a different manner.As a shishya.Fully surrendered.And Arjuna does.Arjuna does not let his ego come in the way of his upliftment. All along, Arjuna must have realized that Krishna was way superior to him in both skill and knowledge, yet Krishna had always treated him as a comrade.But when the moment of reckoning comes, Arjuna does not hesitate to fall on his knees and beseech Krishna to acccept him as his shishya adding that he, Arjuna had surrrendered completlely to Krishna
