Arjunas sorrow

Arjuna returned from Dwaraka. He was dull. He fell on Dharmarajus feet and wept.Dharmaraju lifted him and asked the welfare of elders of Yadava dynasty. He enquired about Soorasena,Ugrasena,Vasudeva,Balarama and other elders.He enquired about Seven sons of Vasudeva.He enquired aboutAkroora,Sruthadeva, Uddhava and Yadava leaders.He enquired about Pradyumna and other sons of Sree Krishna.He enquired about Sree Krishnas wives.He questioned Arjuna like this.... Annaa phalguna!bhakthavathsaludu brahmanyundu govindudaa Pannaaneekasaranyudeesudu jagadbhadraanusandhaayi sree Mannavyaambuja pathranethrudu sudharmaa madhya peetambunam Dunnaadaa balabhadrugoodi sukhiyai yuthsaahiyai dwaarakan// Arjunaa!the Almighty,Easwar,protector of this huge universe,your lovable friend Sree Krishna,Govindaa!is he well?Is he enjoying along with Balabhadra?To his enquiry,Dharmaraju did not get any reply.So,he further questioned him.Arjunaa!why are you so sad?What is the reason behind your sorrow?Did anyone humiliate you?Or did you do anything wrong? Vodithivo sathruvulaku,aadithivo saadhudooshanalaapambul Koodithivo parasathulan,veedithivo maanadhanamu veerula naduman// Thappithivo yichchedanani ,cheppithivo kapatasaakshi chesina melum Dappithivo saranaardhula roppithivo dvijulapasula rogula sathulan// Adachithivo bhoosurulanu kudichithivo baala vruddha guruvulu veligaa Vidichithivo aasrithulanu mudichithivo parula viththamulu lobhamunan// Hey Arjunaa!did you face defeta in the hands of your enemy/Did you abuse sages/Did you move others wives/Did you lose your respect among valiant warriors/Did you go back on your words/Did you give wrong alibi?Did you make fun of others help to you/Did you ward off and sent away Brahmins,animals,unwell people,women andthose who sought your help? Did you humiliate and disgrace Brahmins? Leaving children,aged people,and teachers,did you eat food/Did you leave those to their fate who sought your help/Did you grab others riches?Arjunaa!come out. Why are you so unhappy?

Pandavas concerned about Sree Krishnas welfare

Next day,Dharmaraju had gone to Dhrutharashtras palace ,along with his brothers ,to tale his blessings.He could not find them. Even Vidurudu could also be not found.He inquired Sanjaya regarding Dhrutharashtra and Gaandhaaris where abouts.Even Sanjaya did not know where they went. Dharmaraju was very much concerned and worried about them. One day,Narada came to them along with Thumbura.Dharmaraju told him the reason behind his sorrow and asked him if he knew where Dhrutharahstra and Gaandhaari had gone.Narada replied him in this fashion. Dharmaraja!why are you sorry for them? Sree Hari is there to look after very one. Without his intention,even a small ant can not do any thing.Meeting of people and their departure,every thing is under the control of that great soul.Man is so ignorant that he builds relationships,love ,hatred and other emotions among his people.He is tempted to feel happy or sorry with these unions or partings.You are a knowledgeable man. You are not supposed to be moved by these feelings.Why are you under the impression that without your help,they can not survive?Dhrutharashtra and Gaandhaari had gone to Himalayas.They are staying there with sages along the banks of Ganga. They are living there drinking water only.They are doing penance there.After five days,they are going to attain salvation.After that,Vidurudu would go again on pilgrimage. Dharmaraja!the main reason for which Sreehari had come to this earth as a human being is completed.So,even Sree Krishna is ready to leave this world shortly.After his demise,there is no reason why you should stay in this world. So ,be calm and composed.SAying these words,Narada went away. Dharmaraju called his younger brother Bheema and told him thus. Bheema!Arjuna had gone to see Sree Krishna ,but even after seven months he has not returned. Do you think that some thing may be wrong there?I am seeing so many bad omens. I am afraid that Sree Krishna is going to attain nirvana soon.I am afraid how our future would be.In the mean time,Arjuna reached Hasthinapura.

last stages of Dhrutharashtra

Before the start of the Kurukshethra war, Vidurudu advised Dhrutharashtra not to go for war.Duryodhana did not like those good words and abused Vidurudu in full assembly. Vidurud was ashamed with the behaviour of Duryodhana and left his arms and asthras there itself and left for pilgrimage.He learnt knowledge from great sages like Mythreyudu and returned to Hasthinapura. By that time Kurukshethra war was over.Kouravas were destroyed,Dharmaraju was the present king. Gaandhari and Dhrutharashtra were under Dharmarajus protection.Yudhishtara and other Pandavas welcomed Vidurudu and were happy for his arrival.Yudhishtararequested him to tell about the important places he had seen and about their relations living there.Vidurudu told him about everything except Sree Krishnas niryanam and complete washout of Yadava dynasty in Dwaraka.Vidurudu stayed there for sometime. He wanted to advise Gaandhari and Dhrutharashtra about peaceful existence.Avtually Vidurudu was Yama in his earlier life but because of curse from a sage named Maandavya,he was born as Vidurudu. So,he knew when death will touch people.So,one day he went to Dhrutharashtra and advised him like this.O king!Time is very powerful .No one can change it not nor stop it. Every one is its slave.At one time Kourava dynasty was very famous and prosperous.But now,you are under the impression that mere survival is enough.Forth coming days are still more difficult.So,you have to start thinking about alternate things. Puttandhudavu peddvaadavu mahaabhogambulaalevu nee Pattellam jedipoye dussaha jaraabhaarambupai gappe nee Chuttaalellaru poyiraalumagalun sokambunan magnulai Kattaa!daayala panchanunda thagave kouravyavamsaagranee/ Hey king!you know pretty well how your sons have cornered and put them in difficulties with sadist minds.They burnt their lac house to kill pandavas.They gave him poisoned food to kill all of them.They humiliated pandavs wife,Droupadi in full assembly.They confiscated pandavs riches,treasures,kingdom and sent them to the woods,mercilessly.Even then ,those Pandavas are looking after your welfare and protecting you.Areyou not ashamed?Is your body so important to you that still you are hanging on to their help?You are blind from birth.You lost all your pleasures and treasures.You lost all your kith and kin.Old age has culminated.Both wife and husband are in full sorrow for the loss of your sons.What more is there to enjoy in life that you are still hanging on to Pandavas? Biddalaku buddhi cheppani gruddiki pindambu vandukoni pondide pai Baddaadani bheemundoragoddemulaadanga koodu kudichedavadhipaa! Dehamu nithyamu kaadani mohamu degagosi siddhamuni varthanudai Gehamu veluvadu naruduthsaahamutho jendu mukthi sampada nadhipaa! Do you want Bheema to criticise you that out of too much love towards his children ,he came to this desperate position.on the death of his sons,he fell on us for living. cook for him and give him food!Do you want to eat such food which is given to you from spite?Hey king!this body is not permanent.It is perishable. know that fact.control your love of this body. leave this house and pleasures and live the life of a sage.Then you can aspire to go to heaven. So,run away from home without telling anyone and seek forgiveness of God.Forth coming time is still more bad time. good thinking would be lost. So,escape this very minute. Dhrutharashtra understood what Vidura was trying to tell him.He realised his earlier mistakes.With Viduras help,He left for Himalayas ,along with Gaandhaari.He did dhyaana there and attained salvation there.Gaandhaari did sahagamana along with her husband. Vidura went in pilgrimage from there.

Sree Krishna returns to Dwaraka

Asper the will of Sree Krishna and directions of Bheeshma,Yudhishtara was ruling his country in a right path.His goal was the welfare of the state. People were happy and rich in his kingdom.There was peace every where.O n the request of friends and relations ,Sree Krishna stayed at Hasthinapura for sometime and now he wanted to return back to Dwaraka. Pandavas and other relationbs would not like his decison. He knew it.But ,he convinced the, consoled them and took permission from elders,blessed the younger generation and started for Dwaraka.Subhadra,Droupadi,Kunthi,Gaandhaari,Dhrutharashtrudu,Vidurudu,Yuyuthsudu,Krupaacharyudu,Nakuludu,Sahadevudu,Bheemudu,and Dhoumyudu accompanied him for some distance and pleaded him to come back to them soon. They returned with saddened hearts.Arjuna carried silver umbrella to Krishna.Uddhava and Saathyaki were fanning him.There was festivity ecerywhere. Brahmins were chanting manthras and praising Sree Krishna.They were talking among themselves about Sree Krishna . Ee yuththamaslokudelami janminchina yaadava kulamella nanaghamayye Ee punya varthanude proddunundina madhuraapuramu dodda mahima ganiye Ee purushasreshtu neekshinchi bhakthitho dwaarakaavaasulu dhanyulairi, Ee mahaabalasaali yerigi saapimpaga,nishkantakamayye nikhila bhuvana Mee jaganmohanaakruthi nichchaginchi,panchasarabhallajaala vibhajyamaana Vivasamaanasamai vallavee samooha mithani yadharaamruthamugrolu nellaproddu// Entire Yaadava dynasty is lucky to have such a great man among them.Madhura became famous because of this great man.People of Dwaraka pray this God and have been blessed by him.He is so powerful that bad and wicked people have vanished from this earth.Gopikas have wound Sree Krishna with their eternal love.They cherish his love. Sree Krishna requested Pandavas to return back to Hasthina and proceeded.As soon as he neared Dwaraka,he blew his conch,Panchajanyam.Hearing that sound,people of Dwaraka ran to meet him.women decorated their houses and streets. They went to welcome him with flowers,fruits and danced with enjoyment. Devaki,Vasudevudu,Ugrasenudu,Pradyumnudu,Saambudu,Balaramudu also blew their conches and went to welcome Krishna warmly.They chanted Veda manthras.Sree Krishna addressed each and everyone accordingly. He saluted some,hugged some,talked to some,danced with some and sang with some and made everyone happy.First of all,he saluted Devaki and VaSUdeva and later his step mothers.Then ,he went to his wives and satisfied them with his love and affection.He was one among them and lived in the hearts of all Dwarakavaasis. Sootha told this story to Sounaka and other great sages.

birth of Pareekshiththu

Embryo in the womb of Uththara started thinking like this on completion of ten months.Aswathdhaama has released Brahmaashtram saying pandava dynasty should be terminated.But the embryo had heard her mother and grand mother talking that Sree Krishna would come and save the embryo in the womb.It was becoming very difficult for the embryo to tolerate the burning sensations created. It was doubting the authencity and hope of her mother and grand mother. Raadaa chooda samastha bhoothamulalo raajillu vadichchatan Ledaa paaruni chicharammu tholagan leelaagathin drochi naa Keedaa nedabhayapradaana mathadoohimpan nathathraatha mun Kaadaa yendara gaavadeyedala mathkarmambu thaanettido? God ,who is present in all the primary elements!why is he not coming yet?Is he really prsent? If so,why is he still so reluctant to look at me?Would he not save me from these unbearable flames?Would he he not protect me?He gave life and saved many a soul.If he wants, cant he save me?Who knows,what my fate is? Meghambu meedi krommerugukaivadi menipainunna pachchani patamuvaadu Gandabhaagambula kaanchana manimaya makarakundala kaanthi malayuvaadu Saravahni nadaginchu samrambhamuna jesi kannula nunukempu kaluguvaadu Baalaarkamandala prathimaana rathnahaataka viraajitha kireetambuvaadu// Kankanaamgada vanamaalikaa viraajamaanudasamaanudamgushta maathradehu Dokka gadachetha daalchi nethrothsavamuga vishnudaavirbhavinche navvelayandu// Gada chebatti paribhraminchuchu gadaaghaathambunan durbhara Pradamaivachchu saraagni duththumurugaa bhanjinchi rakshinchu nee Sadayundevvadoko yatanchu madilo jarchimpuchun saabakum Dedurai chooda nadrusyudayye hari sarvesundu viproththamaa// At that very moment, the child in the womb saw Vishnuvu in miniature shape,moving with mace around the child. He wanted to see that celestial person again ,but could not see. the very next instant, the burning sensations have diminished.On one fine day, Uththara gave birth to a male child.Because the child was protected by Vishnu,he was named Vishnuraathudu.Brahmins predicted that the child would become a great man.He would rule the country like Ikshvaku king and would be loved by his countrymen.He would be charitable like Sree Ramachandra.He would become a great warrior and archer like his hrand father,Arjuna.He would be powerful like fire,calm and composed like an ocean,and patient like earth.He is impartial like Brahma,Disciple like Prahlada. But being cursed by a Brahmin,he would face death and at that point would become a great philosopher and reach Vishnu saayujyam. Afetr his birth,he started searching for the face,which he saw ,while in the womb,ie the face of Vishnu,in each and every face he came across. So,he was called as Pareekshiththu. Sootha,the sage ,told this story to the great rishis surrounding him.

Bheeshma praises Sree Krishna

Bheeshma started praising Sree Krishna. I do not have any temptations.I am praying Sree Krishna without any wavering of mind.All my concentration is set on HIM.He became charioteer of Arjuna and killed the enemies just with his looks.I want protection from that great soul who taught Bhagavadgeetha to Arjuna.Now,he is appearing to be victory personified to me.He has no birth,he has no death.There is no one similar to him in these worlds.He is born with many names,in many forms and is always in the hearts of all the living.I am praying that Almighty. Oka sooryundu samastha jeevulaku thaaniokkakkadai thochu po Likanedevudu sarvakaalamu mahaaleelan nijothpannaja Vyakadambambula yoppuchundunatti harine praardhinthu suddhundanai// Like this ,praying and praising Sree Krishna,Bheeshma passed away.Deities sprinkled flowers on him.Sages uttered veda manthras.Yudhishtara completed last rites to the great soul.With Sree Krishnas blessings,Yudhishtara ruled his kingdom peacefully. Sootha told this story to great people.

Bheeshmas departure /niryana

Inspite of soothing and pacifying by Sree Krishna,Narada,and Vyasa,Yudhishtara could not come out of his sorrow.He was dejected,depressed and sorrowful and it covered entire pandava families.Every one was under the doubt that in that despicable state,Dharmaraju would not be able to rule the kingdom efficiently. One Sree Krishna told Yudhishtara like this. Bheeshma is lying on the bed of arrows since Kurukshethra war. He is chanting and praying me. He is shortly going to leave his body and go to heaven.He has vast knowledge of all the saasthras and well experienced over the years. with his demise all that knowledge is going to be a waste. so,Yudhishtara!why dont you go to him and learn that knowledge and know his experiences. You can gain knowledge from him.Every one went to Kurukshethra to see Bheeshma.Yudhishtara was weeping seeing that great soul in such a pitiable condition.He pleaded with him. Bheeshma pithaamaha!Myself and greed for the kingdom is the soul cause of your present position and death of Kouravas.Do I get any salvation for my heinous deeds?At least,can you excuse me for my actions? Bheeshma replied him in cool and composed tones.Yudhishtara!never be under the impression that you are the cause of my death.In fact I am happy to leave this body and this life.I gave word to my mother,Sathyavathi,that I would establish a good empire of Kuru rajya and today it has become true.I am happy for it.You need never be sorry for it.Kings should give top priority to peoples welfare.In fact,I am very sorry for all the hardships you have undergone during your life time. Your father passed away while you were all young.Your mother struggled to bring you up.hey Pandavas!all along you have been respecting Brahmins,righteousness,Sree hari and lived in good path.Inspite of your righteousness,you had to face many hardships.It is not justified but fate is like that. Raajata dharmajundu suraraajasuthundata dhanvi saathravo Dvejakamaina gaandivamu villata saaradhi sarvabhadra sam Yojakudaina chakriyata yugragadaadharudaina bheemuda Yyaajiki thodu vachchunata yaapada galgutidemi chodyamo? Easwarundu vishnudevvela nevvani nemi seyu burushudemi yerugu Nathani maayalaku mahaathmulu vidvaamsu,lanagi melaguchundurandhulaguchu// Is it not confusing and intriguing,while Yudhishtara himself is the king,Arjuna with Gaandeevam ,Bheeshma with his gada ,Sree Krishna with his chakram are all there along with him,but still they underwent so many problems.No one knows what the almighty has kept in store for each and every one.Greta souls and sages are dumb struck with the acts of the almighty.Only Sree Krishna knows everything. Yudhishtara!you know Sree Krishna as a friend and as a cousin.You utilised him as an ambassador and charioteer for your brother,Arjuna.But in actual fact ,Sree krishna is all pervading, omniscient and impartial.He is so great that no sooner did I think of him,he came to see me. to these words,Sree Krishna addressed Bheeshma.Oh Gaangeya!you have learnt so many saasthras from Bruhaspathi,Sukracharya. They should not die with you. You tell and explain all those rules,regulations,sciences,saasthras to your grand son,Yudhishtara.He is the only eligible person here.Bheeshma told and transferred all his knowledge to Yudhishtara in fifty four days.Dharmaraju learnt all dharmas from Bheeshma. As soon as uththarayana punya kalam started,Bheeshma looked at Sree Krishna and praised him eloquently.

Sree Krishna saving uththaras womb

Sree Krishna saw to it that Dharmaraju and pandavas got back their kingdom.He was about to leave for Dwaraka along witb Udhdhava and Sathyaki.At that time,Uththara,wife of Abhimanyu came there weeping.She fell on Sree Krishnas feet and pleaded him to help her save her womb.She never cared for her life. She wanted child to be safe. It was as if her womb was burning.She could not bear it anymore. Sree Krishna lifted her. He realised that was due to the effect of Aswathdhaamas brahmaasthram,saying pandavas should have no off spring.Sree Krishna entered Uththaras womb and killed that asthras effect completely and saved the child in the womb. Kuntheedevi was happy for Sree Krishnas help .She praised him in this fashion. Krishnaaya vaasudevaaya devakee nandanaaya cha Nandagopa kumaaraaya govindaaya namo namah// Namah pankaja naabhaaya namah pankaja maaline/ Namah pankaja nethraaya namasthe pankajaanghraye// Purushundadyudu prakruthiki barudavyayu dakhila bhootha bahirantharbhaa Surudu navalokaneeyudu parameswarudaina neeku pranathulagu haree!// Jananamu naiswaryambunu dhanamunu vidyayunu gala madachchannulakim Chana gocharudagu ninnun vinuthimpagaleru nikhila vibudhasthuthyaa// Jalaraasilo munigedi kalamukriyan bhooribhaara karsithayagu nee Yilagaana najudu korina kaligithivani kondarandru gananaatheethaa// Marachi yajnaana kaamakarmamula thirugu vedanaathurulaku thannivruththi jeya Sravanachinthana vandanaarchanamulichchu koraku nudayinchithandru nin gondarabhava// Ninu chinthimpuchu paaduchum pogaduchun needivya chaarithramul Vinuchumjoothurugaaka lokulitharaanveshambulam joothure/ Ghanadurjanma paramparaa haranadakshambai mahaayogi vaa Gvinuthambaina bhavathpadaabjayugamun visvesa viswambharaa// Yaadavulandu paandusuthulandu nadheeswara naakumohani Chchedamuseyumayya ghanasindhuvu jeredi gangabhangi nee Paadasaroja chinthanamupai nanisambu madeeyabuddhi na Thyaadaravruththitho gadiyunatlugaa jeyagadayya eeswaraa// Sree Krishnaa!yadubhooshanaa narasakhaa srungaara rathnaakaraa Lokadrohi narendravamsadahanaa lokeswaraa devathaa Neeka braahmana goganaarthiharanaa!nirvaana sandhaayakaa!

Because then,you would come to help us.You are impartial with every one. on their request,Sree Krishna stayed for some more time.Dharmaraju was repenting the massacre that occured due to the war.Vyasa tried to pacify him,but failed in his mission.Even Sree Krishna tried to make him see reason that it was act of nature and no one had say in it. But Dharmaraju could not reassess himself.He could not control his sorrow. He was feeling that he was the sole cause of that destruction.Even if Aswamedhayagam was observed,the horse will be killed...but no good would come out of it. Sootha mahaamuni told this story to Sounaka and other sages.

Atrocities of Aswathdhaama

Mahaa bhaaratha yuddham ended at last.All kouravas perished.Duryodhana was about to die .His thighs were broken by Bheema ,by his gada.Seeing Durtodhana in such a pitiable and desperate condition,Aswathdhaama thought of a plan,to make his friend happy.He affirmed that he ,too,would put an end to Pandavas.He went fast into pandavas camp.He beaheaded upapaandavaas,sons of Droupadi ,while they were in sleep.Paanchaali cired her heart out ,hearing this news.she said.... Baalala chaavu karnamula badda kalangi yalangi yoruvam Jaalaka baashpathoyakanajaalamu chekkula raalanedchi paan Chaala thanooja nelabadi jaalipadangani yeththi manju vaa Chaalatha joopuchum chikurajaalamu duvvuchu kreediyitlanen// Dharaneesaathmajaneevu neeku vagavan dharmambe thaddrouni ni Shkarunundai vidalinche baalakula madgaandeeva nirmuktha bhee Kara baanambula nedu vaani siramun khandinchi ne theththu tha Chchiramun drokki jalambulaadu michatan seethaamsu bimbaananaa// Arjuna consoled his wife,Droupadi,who was weeping for the loss of her children in the cruel hands of Aswathdhaama.Droupadi!I will behead him and bring his head to you.You smash it and then bathe.Arjuna went to kill Aswathdhaama ,along with Sree Krishna. Aswathdhaama was afraid of Arjunas attack. So,he released Brahmaasthram,It was coming towards Arjuna with such speed and releasing fire,that Arjuna was afraid.He turned towards Sree Krishna and asked for his mercy. Padmalochana krushna bhakthaabhayaprada vinumu samsaaraagni veguchunna Janula samsaarambu samharimpaga neevu dakka nanyulu leru thalachi chooda Saakshaathkarinchina sarveswarundavu prakruthiki navyaviprabhudavaadya nee purushundavagu bodhamu chevu maaya nadanthuvu nissreyasaathma yandu maayamandu munigi manavaaralaku krupa jesi dharmamukhya chihnamayina Subhamu seyuchundu sujanula navanilo kaava puttuduvu jagannivaasa// Sree Krishna told him that he unless he uses Brahmaasthram itself ,it can not be nullified.Arjuna released Brahmaasthram and both created havoc in the world.Arjuna captured Aswathdhaama .Sree Krishna told Arjuna that no mercy need be shown on the person who killed children, Upapandavas while they were asleep. But at the same time told this also.We should not kill those who are afraid,who are asleep,who seek mercy,who is drowsy with effect of alcohol,who is a good citizen, who seeks your help and mercy,and who is a woman.Arjuna understood Sree Krishnas intention.He wanted to give the final decision to Droupadi who asked for ASWATHDHAMAS HEAD FOR HAVING KILLED HER SONS.When brought before her,Droupadi excused him and told Arjuna to release him ,because he was his teachers son,his friend and like a brother to him. She then turned towards Aswathdhaama and told ..... Pareagan maamagavaaralandarunu mun baanaprayogopasam Haranaa dyaayudha vidyalanniyunu dronaachaaryuchenabhyasim Chiri puthraakruthinunna dronudavu nee chiththambulo lesamun Karunaasangamu leka sishyasuthulan khandimpagaa paadiye?

Droupadi questioned the reason behind Aswathdhaamas masscre of her children.O great Brahmin!all my husbands are disciples of your father.You ,too,are like a teacher to them.still,your were heartless enough to kill your disciples children.is it justified?You are a good Brahmin. You have all the good qualities of righteousness and mercy.You are a warrior.Do you feel you are justified in attempting such a ghastly act ,which demons do?oh father!my children did not attack you in anger in the battle field.they were not in the battle field. they did not know the techniques of the war.they did not think bad about you. they did not collude to harm you.you were safe from them. they were asleep.How could you be so heartless to kill them ,while in sleep? If your mother realises that you are captured by Arjuna and in such a pitiable state, how would your mother,Krupi,would feel now? Droupadi turned towards Sree Krishna and Arjuna and told them to release Aswathdhaama as he was Brahmin.Dharmaraju,Saathyaki,Sree Krishna were happy to hear her decision. But Bheema was angry and he spoke out thus. Kodukula batti champenani kopamu nondaru baalaghaathakun Viduvu matanchu cheppedini verridi droupadi vaadu viprude? Viduvaganela?champuditu veenini meeralu champareni naa Pidikiti potunan siramu bhinnamu seseda choodudindarun// Bheema was not happy with the decision of Droupadi,to release ASWATHDHAAMA.He felt that may be she was crazy to release him unhurt.if they did not want to kill him,he was ready to make his head into thousand pieces by his fist itself. But Sree Krishna warded him by saying.... Avyudu kaadu veedu sisuhantha duraathmakudaathathaayi ham Thavyudu brahmabandhudagu thappadu nikkamu braahmanonaham Thavya yatanchu vedavidithambagu gaavuna dharmadrushti ga Rthavyamu veeni yadhaasdhithi joodumu paandavoththamaa! Arjuna!Aswathdhaama is a child killer,bad fellow,fit to be killed.But Vedas say that a Brahmin should not be killed.so ,keeping these things in view take your decision. Then ,Arjuna took out Aswathdhaamas sirobhooshanam,cut his hair and told him to run away from there. Then,Pandavas did last rites to their children,nera and dear,who were killed in the war. they pacified Dhrutharashtra and Gaandhaari.
