Guest guest Posted December 10, 2002 Report Share Posted December 10, 2002 Dear Sir It is absolutely true that nothing belongs to us and we came and are going to leave with nothing in this materialistic world.If that is the case why should Pandavas fight with Kauravas?Isn't it for the rajya? Kindly clarify. Kindly forgive me for my ignorance.I want to learn more about our culture in such a way that I could spread it and share it with everybody.In that pursuit I want to ask many questions to clear my ignorance.

Guest guest Posted December 11, 2002 Report Share Posted December 11, 2002 Swamin, Yudishtira was the eldest among the pandavas and kauravas . When the throne belonged righteousely to yudishtira , the kauravas did not want to hand over the throne to him which was preventing the pandavas from performing their "ksatriya" karma. The pandavas tried to work along with the kauravas on various occassions , but all in vain . And finally when nothing woked out and war was the only option left out , they had to fight it out . Thats the reason why Sri Krishna was supporting them as perumal said "Yada yada hi dharmAsya ...." and preached the bhagavat gita to arjuna distinctly seperating each of the "Gnayana", "Bhakti" , "karma" and also empasised that one should not be giving up his karma in the pretext of bhakti. The above explanation is totally adiyens interpretation from the upanyasams that adiyen had the bhagyam of listening to . In case of any wrong interpretation adiyen requests the learned bhagavats to correct adiyen.
