(WORLD GREATEST EPICS)
As the story progresses towards the point. when the Geeta
(Holy book) is recited. I feel short of words. Because no one else can say
whatever he is going to say But what makes me sad is that since I can see the future.
I know that much
later in the future. after very many centuries, though Lord Krishna’s words
will be compiled into a revered book or won’t follow its preaching. Other
insightful words will also meet the same fate. Ethics will decline and people
will remember words like duty and action but will forget their true definition Or
they will twist their meaning to suit their own selfish purpose And at that
time too.
I’ll probably stand
helpless, as a mute spectator. After all, I am time, I cannot interfere, I
cannot bless. I cannot curse, If only I had the right to interfere. I’d have
restrained the tongue of Ganga’s son, Devavrat And would have prevented him
from taking an oath out of his love for his father.

That oath is responsible for all that is happening today.Arjun
used to play in the lap of this very same grandfather in his childhood. He used
to seek blessings from the same guru Dronacharya .That Arjun is now going to
shoot arrows at the same grandsire and the same guru I can’t see crown prince
Duryodhan anywhere.
He has probably gone southwards with the cows.Then go in
that direction
.
Follow him !As you wish Bheeshma, Arjun is going in search
of Duryodhan!Then stop him.Bheeshma, none of us can stop him single-handedly,Whose
army dares to block the path of sage Drona’s disciple Arjun?
On your guard! Prince, go that way! As you wish On your
guard! Take guard against you? It is an insult for me to fight you O son of a charioteer!
But what do I do? I have taken a vow to cut off your tongue And I will
definitely fulfill it.
Do not use abusive words, arrogant boy! Pick up your Gandiva
bow and show me what sage Drona has taught you ,On your guard! Don’t flee, you
coward! Don.t flee!This is Arjun.s Gandiva bow!Dushasan!
Panchali, this is for your hair. No,If I kill this evil man
how will brother fulfill his oath?
Arjun !Prince, pay your respect to the blood which flows
from your wounds. Today, you have attained adulthood. What is this arrow? This
was a benumbing arrow. What is the use of rendering them unconscious?
Kill them. - No! If I kill them, their clothes will become impure
Prince, will you take the clothes off dead men for princess Uteri’s dolls? That
will not befit you.Now go. Get Karna’s pink, Duryodhan’s red and Ashwathama’s
clothes.
But,but, do not touch, grandsire’s clothes. My benumbing
arrows can’t affect him. Prince, now go. As you wish. Now there is no hurdle in
killing them. I have removed their clothes too. There is still a hurdle,
Prince. That of our code of conduct. It is not ethical for a warrior to kill
unconscious warriors.
Prince, in the coming
eras, warriors like. these unconscious warriors will be rare.I don’t want
history to accuse me of killing them.
After rendering them unconscious with
divine weapons. Prince, had I not been worried about you.I would probably not
have rendered them unconscious. Hence, let us return to the capital. If the
king is back, he will worry about you. Prince, wait. This place belongs to
Brihannala.Take your place. After knowing who you are I cannot do that.
O disciple of Drona, let me remain your charioteer. No, Prince.
This is not right.If your father finds out that he was served by the Pandavas,he
might even die of shock. Prince, you have won this battle! You have won this
battle!
When you tell him, that among those who you defeated were
warriors like Bheeshma, sage Dronacharya sage Kripacharya, Duryodhan,
Ashwathama and Karna.You defeated their army just the way strong winds would
blow away clouds and disperse them! Hearing this news, he will feel overjoyed.
He will be overjoyed.Prince, please take your place now. Let me take mine.
Go on,As you wish Arjun, shall we go? Yes, but we will have
to return in your chariot.We need to place these weapons in that tree As you wish.
Will father believe that I defeated the Kuru army? A loving father will believe
anything. When people say that I am very powerful. I feel amused. Because I am
beyond power and powerlessness. To me, both these words are meaningless. I am
the rod of a balance.
The pan represents life And the deeds are the weight measures.
I simply keep a watch so that nobody can cheat But, if someone tries to cheat he
will also have to bear the consequences. Shakuni, Duryodhan, Karna, Dushasan,
and others have tried to cheat until now But who is the loser today?.
Who is lying bare bodied in the battlefield?.And whose flag
of victory is fluttering high?.The spies have not yet returned.The prince
should not have gone alone. Why did you send him? Didn.t you know who all will
come along with the Kuru army? Bheeshma, Dronacharya, Kripacharya,Even Lord
Indra cannot challenge any one of them to war And the three of them must have
come with this army.
Sire, don.t worry about the crown prince.Please wait for the
news of his victory.Brihannala! Will she defeat Bheeshma? Do you think she can
defeat Dronacharya and Kripacharya.and Duryodhan?Kank, have you lost your mind?
Sire, Brihannala is not an ordinary human being.That eunuch,
that transvestite is not even a complete person.Will that incomplete person
protect my son? Extinguish all the lamps of the palace.I am deeply worried
about my son.
