unwed

 Karna resembles various famous characters found in Hindu texts. The attributed author of Mahabharata, the sage Vyasa, was also born from an unwed union of Satyavati and sage Parashara.

Drona / Birth Place / Acquired Place / Cave




http://1vir.blogspot.com/search/label/Drona

 As regards Drona himself, abandoning his weapons, he was then in a supremely tranquil state. Having said those words he had devoted himself to Yoga

https://freeglobaluniversity.blogspot.com/search/label/Yoga

Endued with great effulgence and possessed of high ascetic merit, he had fixed his heart on that Supreme and Ancient Being, viz., Vishnu. Bending his face slightly down, and heaving his breast forward, and closing his eyes, and resting ort the quality of goodness, and disposing his heart to contemplation, and thinking on the monosyllable Om, representing. Brahma, and remembering the puissant, supreme, and indestructible God of gods, the radiant Drona or high ascetic merit, the preceptor (of the Kurus and the Pandavas) repaired to heaven that is so difficult of being attained even by the pious. 


Indeed, when Drona thus proceeded to heaven it seemed to us that there were then two suns in the firmament. The whole welkin was ablaze and seemed to be one vast expanse of equal light when the sun-like Bharadwaja, of solar effulgence, disappeared. Confused sounds of joy were heard, uttered by the delighted celestials. 


When Drona thus repaired to the region of Brahman, Dhrishtadyumna stood, unconscious of it all, beside him. 

Only we five amongst men beheld the high-souled Drona rapt in Yoga proceed to the highest region of blessedness. These five were myself,

Dhananjaya, the son of Pritha, and 

https://harekrishnainfo.blogspot.com/search/label/Arjuna

Drona's son, Aswatthaman, 

https://freeglobaluniversity.blogspot.com/search/label/Ash

and Vasudeva of Vrishni's race, 

https://freeglobaluniversity.blogspot.com/search/label/VastuFeng

and king Yudhishthira the just, the son of Pandu. 

https://harekrishnainfo.blogspot.com/search/label/Yudhistira

Nobody else, O king, could see that glory of the wise Drona, devoted to Yoga, while passing out of the world. In fact, all human beings were unconscious of the fact that the preceptor attained to the supreme region of Brahman, a region mysterious to the very gods, and one that is the highest of all. Indeed, none of them could see the preceptor, that chastiser of foes, proceed to the region of Brahman, devoted to Yoga in the company of the foremost of Rishis

Grantharambha

The second chapter of the Sutra Khanda is called Grantharambha, for here the book actually begins. In this chapter Locana Dasa relates how he heard from Damodara Pandita the story of Jaimini's Mahabharata recital, wherein he describes a conversation between Narada and Uddhava. In that conversation Narada explained the cause of Krishna's appearance in the golden form of Sri Gauranga.

Day 14

Bhīma received the brothers of Duryodhana who resisted him. With his pointy shafts, he made 
  1. Kundabhedin, 
  2. Suhastha, 
  3. Dirghanetra and 
  4. Vrindaraka fell lifeless on the ground. Ceasing not, showering infinite shafts continuously, Bhīma slew seven more brothers of Duryodhana viz., 
  5. Abhaya, 
  6. Raudrakarman, 
  7. Durvimochana, 
  8. Vinda, 
  9. Anuvinda, 
  10. Suvarman and 
  11. Sudhakshin. 
  12. Despatching 25 pointy arrows unceasingly, Bhīma slays Durmarshana, 
  13. Duhsaha, 
  14. Durmarsha, 
  15. Durdhara 
  16. Jaya. 
  17. with a hundred uninterrupted shafts, he made 6 brothers of Duryodhana viz., Chitra,
  18. Upachitra, 
  19. Charuchitra, 
  20. Sarasana, 
  21. Chitrayudha, and 
  22. Chitravarman fell lifeless.
  23. Bhīma, after slaying five more brothers of Duryodhana viz., Satrunjaya, 
  24. Satrusaha, 
  25. Chitraksha, 
  26. Dridhavarma and 
  27. Chitrasena, engaged in battling against his favorite and beloved 
  28. Vikarna.

vikarna

Now as Bhima who had sworn to kill all the Dhritarashtra’s 100 son calls Vikarna a man of Dharma and advise him to step aside. But Vikarna replies that even knowing that Kauravas would not win a war against a side with Sri Krishna on it, he cannot forsake Duryodhana.Vikarna reminds Bhima the Dice game and said-

“That was my duty then

And this is my duty now

Fight me o son of Vayu.”

Thus, when Bhima kills Vikarna after a mace fight. And his death brought tears to the eyes of Bhima.

Alternate

   Bhīma, with a caring heart, uttered - “Vikarna, you know dharma and you were the only one who spoke in favour of us and Draupathi in the court. Me, battling against you or slaying you is only because of my vow. Forgive me for my rage against you.”
            On hearing the words of Bhīma, Vikarna replied – “Brother, don’t ask for forgiveness. What you are about to do is your Kshatriya duty. The reason we both are here is all for our love for our brother. Remember your Kshatriya duty and battle with me. I will be happy to die for my brother.”
