Mahabharat

Draupadi...

Your duties are five times more difficult

than that of an ordinary woman.

Thus, it would be appropriate

that I hand over...

...my sons to you

and retire.

Henceforth,

only you have the right to

advise my sons, Draupadi.

Greetings, aunt.

May you prosper.

Parents have one great quality...

Patience.

You should be patient too.

I take your leave.

Every man faces a situation

when all his dreams and hopes

are shattered.

All his plans go awry

On the one hand, there's righteousness

and the other is happiness.

It becomes an impasse.

When righteousness is behest with problems.

And not being righteous ensures happiness.

Think about it.

At times, there's a chance to speak ill about a decent man.

Or get an easy opportunity

to steal when impoverished.

At times the immorality of a powerful leader

or a king's attendant comes to light.

Everyone faces such situations.

Most people don't realise

that such a situation is an impasse.

We don't experience any struggle.

We are easily attracted to happiness

Just the way a bee is attracted to a flower.

In fact, such an impasse...

...is the best time to get closer to God.

If we don't fear having to struggle

and are not attracted towards happiness

and continue to be righteous

we are not too far from meeting God.

When a leaf falls from a tree while fighting the breeze

it goes towards the sky.

Whereas the grass that bows to the breeze remains on land.

In other words, during an impasse

choosing the easy path

ensures happiness

and an extended life

but doesn't it become a blot on character?

Does it not darken the soul?

Doesn't it distance us from God?

Think about it

Your Highness!

Your Highness...

Duryodhan has taken a terrible oath.

It will be disastrous.

It is pure evil, my dear sister.

What's the matter, brother Shakuni?

What is Duryodhan up to?

My dear sister, Duryodhan has lost control over himself.

Your Highness, at Drupad's kingdom...

The insult that Duryodhan had to bear

has hurt his feelings badly.

I tried a lot to stop him

but it was no use. No use at all, Your Highness.

Hastinapur insulted in Drupad's kingdom?

Yes, Your Highness...

All the kings and princes were seated near the podium

whereas Hastinapur was placed at the very end.

Not only that...

My dear sister, even during the 'Swayamvar'

all the Aryan kings and princes were called first.

And Hastinapur

was the last.

It felt as if Drupad knew

that Hastinapur is...

...no longer powerful.

The Kuru kingdom has become weak.

Your crown prince...

...isn't worthy of respect.

That's it!

Because of the hurt caused by this insult

Duryodhan is about to sacrifice

the white horse of the 'Ashwamedha Yagna'.

That's a greater sin than killing a Brahman, My Lord.

Stop him!

Killing a Brahman!

It is a greater sin than
