Words
have Power
-Choose them carefully.
‘Son of Blind is Blind’ (Andhey
Ka Beta Andha)
Just four carelessly chosen words by Draupdi resulted in the mother of all
wars:
Mahabhatra.
Legend
has it that when an angry Duryodhan was speedily walking out of Palace of
Illusion, he accidentally fell into a water body. (In palace of illusion water
body looked like dry surface and dry surface looked like water body).
A
furious Duryodhan turns around and sees Draupadi laughing at him. She said
sarcastically “Andhe ka Beta Andha” (son of blind is blind)” as Duryodha was
son of the blind king-Dhritrashtra. Duryodhan left in a rage and vowed to take
revenge.
This
led to Duryodhan to try to disrobe Draupdi when he had won her in a game of
dice.
These
are two major incidences which eventually led to the war between Pandvas and
Kuarvas-
War of Mahabharta.
