TIME TO CLEAR SOME MISCONCEPTIONS
MISCONCEPTION #1 : ARJUN RAN AWAY FROM
KARNA'S BHARGAVA ASTRA. ...
I HAVE HEARD MANY FUNNY HATERS SAYING THAT
ARJUN RAN AWAY FROM KARNA'S BHARGAVA
ASTRA WITH FEAR. NOW IT IS THE TIME TO CLEAR
THIS MISCONCEPTION.
SOURCE : KMG ORIGINAL TRANSLATION OF VED VYAS MAHABHARAT
Explaination:
Here is the narrative what Arjuna said to Lord
Krishna:
"Behold, O Krishna of mighty arms, the
prowess of the bhargava weapon! It cannot,
by any means, be baffled! Behold the Suta's
son also, O Krishna, filled with rage in this
great battle and resembling the Destroyer
himself, in prowess and employed in achieving
such a fierce feat! Urging his steeds
incessantly, he is repeatedly casting angry
glances upon me! I will never be able to fly
away from Karna in battle! The person that is
living, may, in battle, meet with either victory
or defeat. To the man, however, that is dead,
O Hrishikesha, even death is victory. How can
defeat be his that is dead?"
Now some karna fans are getting over emotional on 2 lines that Arjuna said :
-1st Line:it cannot, by any means, be baffled!
(Arjuna spoke about Bhargava Weapon)
-2nd Line:I will never be able to fly away from
Karna in battle!
And more funny claim is that Arjun remembered
about Yudhishtir is because of his fear against
Bhargav astra. I can only laugh to these kind of
claims.
Now what this retarded karna fans needs to
know is :
* The Bhargav astra mentioned here is not used
on Arjun.Arjun wasn't there when Karna launched it. Arjun
was fighting with Aswathamma and kaurav army.
So no need is there for Arjun to fly away.
Karna invoking Bhargavastra:
Hearing these grave words of Duryodhana,
the son of Radha, as if smiling, said these
words unto the ruler of the Madras, "Behold
the prowess of my arms and the energy of my
weapons, O ruler of men! Today I will slay all
the Pancalas and the Pandavas in battle!
Cause the steeds to proceed with my car, O
tiger among men! Without doubt, everything
will be as I have said!" Having said these
words, the Suta's son of great valour, that
hero, taking up his ancient and foremost of
bows called Vijaya, stringed it and rubbed the
string repeatedly. Bidding the troops stay on
the field after having assured them upon his
truth and by an oath, the mighty Karna of
immeasurable soul fixed on his bow-string the
weapon known by the name of Bhargava.
From that weapon flowed, O king, millions
and millions of keen arrows in that great
battle. Entirely shrouded with those blazing
and terrible arrows winged with feathers of
Kankas and peacocks, the Pandava army could
not see anything. Loud wails of woe arose
from among the Pancalas, O king, afflicted, in
that battle, with the mighty Bhargava weapon.
In consequence then of elephants, O king,
and steeds, by thousands, and cars, O
monarch, and men, falling on all sides,
deprived of life, the Earth began to tremble.
The vast force of the Pandavas became
agitated from one extremity to another.
Meanwhile Karna, that scorcher of foes, that
foremost of warriors, that tiger among men,
while consuming his foes, looked resplendent
like a smokeless fire.
The Srinjayas then, thus
slaughtered in battle by the Suta's son,
repeatedly called upon Arjuna and Vasudeva
like the spirits of the dead within Yama's
dominions calling upon Yama to rescue them
ARJUN WASN'T THERE WHEN KARNA USED
BHARGAV ASTRA ON PANDAV ARMY. ALL SRINJAYAS
REPEATEDLY CALLED ARJUN AND KRISHNA FOR
RESCUE. THE WORDS OF ARJUN WHICH IS
INTERPOLATED BY KARNA FANS IS SAID AT THAT
TIME.
AT THAT TIME KRISHNA ASKED ARJUN TO LOOK
AFTER YUDHISHTIRA FIRST AND THEN TO RETURN
FOR BATTLE.
Krishna replied
unto that foremost of intelligent men and
chastiser of foes, these words that were
suitable to the occasion, "The royal son of
Kunti hath been deeply wounded and
mangled by Karna. Having seen him first and
comforted him, thou wilt then, O Partha, slay
Karna?" Then Keshava proceeded, desirous of
beholding Yudhishthira, thinking that Karna
meanwhile, O monarch, would be
overwhelmed with fatigue! Then Dhananjaya,
himself desirous of beholding the king
afflicted with arrows, quickly proceeded on
that car, avoiding the battle, at #Keshava's
command.
IT WAS KRISHNA WHO ASKED ARJUN TO GO TO
YUDHISHTIRA. AND ARJUN AVOIDED THE BATTLE
AT KRISHNA'S COMMAND.
Then Dhananjaya,
himself desirous of beholding the king
afflicted with arrows, quickly proceeded on
that car, avoiding the battle, at #Keshava's
command.
"Sanjaya said, 'Having vanquished the son of
Drona and achieved a mighty and heroic feat
that is exceedingly difficult of
accomplishment, Dhananjaya, irresistible by
foes, and with bow outstretched in his hands,
cast his eyes among his own troops. The brave
Savyasaci, gladdening those warriors of his
that were still battling at the head of their
divisions and applauding those among them
that were celebrated for their former
achievements, caused the carwarriors of his
own army to continue to stand in their posts.
Not seeing his brother Yudhishthira of
Ajamida's race, the diadem-decked Arjuna,
adorned, besides, with a necklace of gold,
speedily approached Bhima and enquired of
him the whereabouts of the king, saying, "Tell
me, where is the king?" Thus asked, Bhima
said, "King Yudhishthira the just, hath gone
away from this place, his limbs scorched with
Karna's shafts. It is doubtful whether he still
liveth!"
ARJUN ASKED BHIMA ABOUT KING YUDHISHTIR
AND AFTER HAVING HEARD THE REPLY OF
VRIKODARA, ARJUN SAID
Hearing those words, Arjuna said,
"For this reason go thou quickly from the spot
for bringing intelligence of the king, that best
of all the descendants of Kuru! Without doubt,
deeply pierced by Karna with shafts, the king
hath gone to the camp! In that fierce passage
at arms, though deeply pierced by Drona with
keen shafts, the king endued with great
activity, had still stayed in battle, expectant of
victory, until Drona was slain! That foremost
one among the Pandavas, possessed of great
magnanimity, was greatly imperilled by Karna
in today's battle! For ascertaining #his
FUNNY KARNA FANS, WHERE IT IS WRITTEN THAT
ARJUN FLED AWAY WITH FEAR OF BHARGAV
ASTRA? HE ASKED BHIMA TO GO AND HE WILL
CHECK ALL THEIR FOES. ONLY FRUSTRATED
FELLOWS WILL SAY THAT ARJUN WAS AFRAID OF
BHARGAV ASTRA.
Thus
addressed, Bhima said, "O #thou of great glory,
the
king, that bull amongst the Bharatas! If, O
#Arjuna, I go there, many foremost of heroes
will then say that I am frightened in battle!"
BHIMA ALSO ASKED ARJUN TO GO TO KING
YUDHISHTIRA WHEN ARJUN ASKED BHIMA TO GO
THERE.
Then Arjuna said unto Bhimasena, "The
samsaptakas are before my division! #Without
#slaying those assembled #foes first, it is
READ IT, READ IT WITH YOUR EYES. EVEN AFTER
BHIMA AND KRISHNA ASKED TO GO TO
YUDHISHTIRA, ARJUN WASNT READY TO LEAVE
FROM BATTLEFIELD.HE TOLD THAT IT IS
IMPOSSIBLE FOR HIM TO LEAVE BATTLE WITHOUT
VANQUISHING FOES.
YOU CALL THIS FEAR? THEN I WILL CALL YOU
INSANE. BECAUSE NORMAL PEOPLE WILL NOT
CONSIDER THIS AS FEAR.
Then Bhimasena said unto Arjuna, 'Relying
upon my own might, O foremost one among
the Kurus, I will fight with all the
samsaptakas in battle! Therefore, O
Dhananjaya, do thou go thyself!'"
"Sanjaya continued, 'Hearing in the midst of
foes, those words of his brother Bhimasena
that were difficult of accomplishment, Arjuna,
desiring to see the king, addressed the
Vrishni hero, saying, "Urge the steeds, O
Hrishikesha, leaving this sea of troops! I
desire, O Keshava to see king Ajatasatru!'"
Now this clearly prooves Arjuna avoided the
battle with Karna & his bhargava weapon only
on Lord Krishna's and Bhima's command in order
to first
find out his elder brother Yudhistira who was
nowhere to be seen in Kurushetra battle &
which worried both Krishna & Arjuna & who
thought King Yudhistira's life was in danger.
Once Yudhistira is slained,Kauravas would be
automatically declared as winners. This fact is
which
forced Arjuna to avoid Karna & first save King
Yudhistira's whose life was in danger..!!
So Arjuna was left with only 2 choices-
Either fight with Karna & his Bhargava weapon
at the cost of risking Yudhistira's Life & the
Kurushetra battle as a whole OR avoid Karna
& his bhargavastra & first find out & save
Yudhistira at the cost of avoiding Karna & his
Bhargava weapon!& as a good brother Arjuna
preferred the second choice & that too on
Lord Krishna's insistence..As an intelligent &
sensible warrior too,Arjuna took the right
decision because risking Yudhistira's life meant
risking Kurushetra Battle!But these pathetic
karna fans have a habbit of pre-judging
Arjuna instead of analysing the whole
scenario!
Now this just
prooves Arjuna's bravery and love towards his
brother. But these pathetic
Karna lovers dont read the full narrative &
judge a person only by their half stated
incomplete narratives!These shameless
frustated & obsessed fans are just making a
fun of themselves & also their hero Karna by
quoting such incomplete narratives!This just
shows that to how much pathetic extent these
idiots can go to glorify their hero by such false
& wrong interpretations!
Thank you
