Karna -Fighting battles within

What if you come across a truth that makes your life seems like a delusion..What if those whom you thought as your enemy turned out to be someone your own.

Don't go by what they showed - what they showed in the first few minutes of the episode was unadulterated bakwas.  Karna knew that he was Kunti's son, but never had any questions of Radha.  If anything, it was Kunti who would get the brunt of his questions

i agree with you it would have been hard to accept the fact that your enemies those that you have  hated your whole life are your brother's.

there are two important decisions that karna takes after getting to know the truth .First is to still stand by dury and fight his brother's and second to spare life of four of his brother's and only fight arjuna

the first one would have been really hard no matter what its not easy to fight your brother's yet karna decided to do that because of the strong friendship and loyalty he had towards dury.

second one was his way to do justice to his true family that is pandavs and his friend whom he loved a lot

people can think his decision were wrong ,stupid ,foolish since it led to his death and dury's defeat but i have immense respect for him for the decisions he made

@vrish:didnt understand your comment.Karna came to know he is kunti's son when krishna revealed it

ya he was a very big dilemma it was really difficult for him to make choice or any decision but what he did was completely just even when kunti requests him to join or spare her five sons he didn't refuse her he promised  kunti that he would not kill nakul , sahedev , bheem , yudi he could have refused as kunti had done wrong but he promised kunti proud of greatness of karna he is good person

No, read KMG - it's been reproduced in the AT - Karna told Krishna that he knew that he was Kunti's son and accepted that Pandu was his father, but... and then he went into the litany of how Radha had raised him, and how he was indebted to Duryodhan

I can't dig it up now - just check the AT in the last 30 pages 😆

vrish I too heard he knew he was kunti son.my question is how? it was krishna who first told him right.

Yeah, but when Krishna told him, he told Krishna that he already knew.  Which begs the question - how.

The other point - if Karna already knew that he was Kunti's chance, Krishna would have known that as well.  Then how would approaching him & revealing that to him have helped undermine his hatred for the Pandavas?

is it because of this that you are saying karna already knew

"Karna said, 'Without doubt, O Kesava, thou hast said these words from thy love, affection, and friendship for me, as also in consequence of thy desire of doing me good, O thou of Vrishni's race. I know all that thou hast said unto me. Morally, I am the son of Pandu, as also in consequence of the injunctions of the scriptures

if yes then just before this line it is krishna who tells him who he is and that he deserves to be a king that is why karna then says that he knows all that krishna is telling him is right as per scriptures he is pandu's son at least that is how i read it

meaning its also one of unknown mysteries of mb! how many are there? why did not vyas made a properly compiled copy of his writings so that we don't have to ransack our brain for these mind wobbling questions 😛Edited by srishtisingh - 10 years ago
