The Great War of Mahabharata – In fact, amongst whom the war had taken place?
Varun, a student was well aware that the Great war of Mahabharata which took place at Kurukshetra
had lasted for 18 days and this war had wiped out almost 80% of the male population. Varun had
visited Kurukshetra to have a look at the greatest battle field.
Varun, was aware that he was standing on the land where the Kauravas and Pandavas had fought and
shed their blood?
Was Krishna Paramatma here as Parth’s (Arjun’s) Sarathy (Charioteer) who had been a witness to this
war?
With all the doubts in his mind he was staring at the soil, he heard a voice…
"You can never find the truth my son," said the voice. On hearing the voice filled with surprise he turned
to the direction from where he heard the voice.
In between the soil flying land he saw an image of an old man clad in saffron robes.
"I know that you have come here to know more about the Battle of Kurukshetra. But you cannot know
that war without knowing between whom the war actually took place. "
"The Mahabharata is an epitome. A great epic. It's a philosophy rather than truth. That's what everyone
should try to understand ... " said the saffron clad old man with a mysterious smile.
"What is that philosophy sir?, asked Varun. Can you please explain me more about it.
"Pancha Pandavas are none other than our Eyes (Sight), ears (sound), nose (smell), mouth (taste) and
touch the five sense that every person has !!!!
"The hundreds of evils within us, which day in and day out tries to attack these five senses and make
them it’s pray are Kauravas."
"Are your senses able to fight and resist against these evils which are huge in numbers?
Yes, you can when Krishna Parmatma becomes your Charioteer and rides your chariot.
Varun sighs heavily…. And the old man continued…..
"Krishna is none other than your conscience. Your soul. Your guide. Once you give the charge of your life
to him then you do not have to worry about anything."
Varun forgetting himself went on listening to the old man, but now one more suspicion appeared in his
mind.
"If the Kauravas are evil, then the elderly Dronacharya and Bhishma stand beside them and fight for
them?"
"That’s nothing. As you grow up, your view for the older ones changes.
In fact, when you are growing up, you have certain feeling about certain people and you think that they
can never commit any mistake.
But as you grow up you realize that it is not like that, even they have their own share of mistakes
So whatever they have done if it is for your good, you have to decide whether you need them or not. "
"When this realization comes, you will at one point want them to fight for your good.
Not because of tiredness. But because of little bit of understanding of the lesson of the Gita.
He is the brother of the five senses. His name is the desire. Infatuation. He is a part of your senses. Born
with you.
But he is always on the side of evil. He very well knows he's wrong. But he will say something, like your
wish. like desire. "
"Do you agree with me that what I say is true? Your desire and infatuation always wants to be on the
side of the evil? "
He has a thousand of thoughts in his mind. Collecting all his thoughts together he looked up.
This is the biggest truth of life. Krishna Parmatma is nowhere but he is within us.
