dhritarashtr dvara krishn ke anurodh karana

dhritarashtr bole– bhagavan narad! ap jaisa kahate haian, vah thik hai. maian bhi yahi chahata hooan, parantu mera koee vash nahian chalata hai. vaishampayan ji kahate haian- janamejay! narad ji se aisa kahakar dhritarashtr ne bhagavan shrikrishn se kaha- ‘keshav! apane mujhase jo bat kahi hai, vah ihalok aur svargalok mean hitakar, dharmasammat aur nyayasangat hai. tat janardan! maian apane vash mean nahian hooan. jo kuchh kiya ja raha hai, vah mujhe priy nahian hai. kintu kya kahooan? mere duratma putr meri bat nahian maneange. priy shrikrishn! mahabahu purushottam! shastr ki ajna ka ullanghan karane vale mere is moorkh putr duryodhan ko ap hi samajha-bujhakar rah par lane ka prayatn kijiye. mahabahu hrishikesh! yah satpurushoan ki kahi huee batean nahian sunata hai. gaandhari, buddhiman vidur tatha hit chahane vale bhishm adi anyany suhridoan ki bhi batean nahian sunata hai. janardan! duratma raja duryodhan ki buddhi pap mean lagi huee hai. yah pap ka hi chiantan karane vala, kroor aur vivekashoony hai. ap hi ise samajhaie. yadi ap ise sandhi ke lie raji kar lean to apake dvara suhridoan ka yah bahut b da kary sampann ho jaega.

bhagavan shrikrishn ka duryodhan ko samajhana

sampoorn dharm aur arth ke tattv ko janane vale vrishninandan bhagavan shrikrishn amarshashil duryodhan ki or ghoomakar madhur vani mean usase bole- ‘kurushreshth duryodhan! tum meri yah bat suno. bharat! maian visheshat: sage-sanbandhiyoan sahit tumhare kalyan ke lie hi tumhean kuchh paramarsh de raha hooan. tum paramajnani mahapurushoan ke kul mean utpann hue ho. svayan bhi shastroan ke jnan tatha sadh‌vyavahar se sampann ho. tumamean sabhi uttam gun vidyaman haian; at: tumhean meri yah achchhi salah avashy manani chahie. tat! jise tum thik samajhate ho, aisa ardham kary to ve log karate haian, jo nich kul mean utpann hue haian tatha jo dushtachitt, kroor evan nirlajj haian. bharatashreshth! is jagat mean satpurushoan ka vyavahar dharm aur arth se yukt dekha jata hai aur dushtoan ka bartav thik isake viparit drishtigochar hota hai. tumhare bhitar yah viparit vritti baranbar dekhane mean ati hai. bharat! is samay tumhara jo duragrah hai, vah adharmamay hi hai. usake hone ka koee samuchit karan bhi nahian hai. yah bhayankar hath anishtakarak tatha mahan prananashak hai. tum ise saphal bana sako, yah sanbhav nahian hai. parantap! yadi tum us anarthakari duragrah ko chho d do to apane kalyan ke sath hi bhaiyoan, sevakoan tatha mitroan ka bhi mahan hit sadhan karoge. aisa karane par tumhean adharm aur apayash ki prapti karane vale karm se chhutakara mil jaega. at: bharatakulabhooshan purushasianh! tum jnani, param utsahi, shooravir, manasvi evan anek shastroan ke jnata paandavoan ke sath sandhi kar lo. yahi param buddhiman raja dhritarashtr ko bhi priy evan hitakar jan p data hai. parantap! pitamah bhishm, achary dron , mahamati vidur, kripachary, somadatt, buddhiman bahlik, ashvatthama, vikarn, sanjay, vivianshati tatha anyany kutuanbi janoan evan mitroan ko bhi yahi adhik priy hai.

tat! sandhi hone par hi sampoorn jagat ka bhala ho sakata hai. tum shreshth kul mean utpann, lajjashil, shastrajn aur kroorata se rahit ho. at: bharatashreshth! tum pita aur mata ke shasan ke adhin raho. bharat! pita jo kuchh shiksha dete haian, usi ko shreshth purush apane lie kalyanakari manate haian. bhari apatti mean p dane par sab log apane pita ke upadesh ko hi smaran karate haian. tat! mantriyoan sahit tumhare pita ko paandavoan ke sath sandhi kar lena hi achchha jan p data hai. kurushreshth! yahi tumhean bhi pasand ana chahie. jo manushy suhridoan ke mukh se shastr sammat upadesh sunakar bhi use svikar nahian karata hai, usaka yah asvikar use parinam mean usi prakar shokadagdh karata hai, jaise khaya hua indrayan phal pachan ke aant mean dah utpann karane vala hota hai. jo mohavash apane hit ki bat nahian manata hai, vah dirghasootri manushy apane svarth se bhrisht hokar keval pashchatap ka bhagi hota hai. jo manav apane kalyan ki bat sunakar apane mat ka agrah chho dakar pahale usi ko grahan karata hai, vah sansar mean sukhapoorvak unnatishil hota hai. jo apani hi bhalaee chahane vale apane suhrid ke vachanoan ko man ke pratikool hone ke karan nahian sahan karata hai aur un asuhridoan ke pratikool kahe hue vachanoan ko hi sunata hai, vah shatruoan ke adhin ho jata hai. jo manushy satpurushoan ki sammati ka ullanghan karake dushtoan ke mat ke anusar chalata hai, usake suhrid use shighr hi vipatti mean p da dekh shok ke bhagi hote haian.

jo apane mukhyamantriyoan ko chho dakar nich prakriti ke logoan ka sevan karata hai, vah bhayankar vipatti mean phansakar apane uddhar ka koee marg nahian dekh pata hai. bharat! jo dusht purushoan ka sang karane vala aur mithyachari hokar apane shreshth suhridoan ki bat nahian sunata hai, doosaroan ko apanata aur atmiyajanoan se dvesh rakhata hai, use yah prithvi tyag deti hai. bharatashreshth! tum un vir paandavoan se virodh karake doosare ashisht, asamarth aur moodh manushyoan se apani raksha chahate ho. is bhootal par tumhare siva doosara kaun manushy hai, jo iandr ke saman parakrami evan maharathi bandhu-baandhavoan ko tyag kar doosaroan se apani raksha ki asha karega? tumane janm se hi kuanti ke putroan ke sath sada shathatapoorn bartav kiya hai, parantu ve isake lie kabhi kupit nahian hue haian; kyoanki paandav dharmatma haian. tat mahabaho! yadyapi tumane apane hi bhaee paandavoan ke sath janm se hi chhal kapat ka bartav kiya hai, tathapi ve yashasvi paandav tumhare prati sada sadbhav hi rakhate ae haian. bharatashreshth! tumhean bhi apane un shreshth bandhuoan ke prati vaisa hi bartav karana chahie. tum krodh ke vashibhoot n hona. bharatabhooshan! vidvan evan buddhiman purushoan ka pratyek kary dharm, arth aur kam in tinoan ki siddhi ke anukool hi hota hai. yadi tinoan ki siddhi asanbhav ho to buddhiman manav dharm aur arth ka hi anusaran karate haian.

prathak prathak sthit hue dharm, arth aur kam mean se kisi ek ko chunana ho to dhir purush dharm ka hi anusaran karata hai, madhyam shreni ka manushy kalah ke karanabhoot arth ko hi grahan karata hai aur adham shreni ka ajnani purush kam ko hi pana chahata hai. jo adham manushy iandriyoan ke vashibhoot hokar lobhavash dharm ko chho d deta hai, vah ayogy upayoan se arth aur kam ki lipsa mean p dakar nasht ho jata hai. jo arth aur kam prapt karana chahata ho, use pahale dharm ka hi acharan karana chahie; kyoanki arth aur kam kabhi dharm se prathak nahian hota hai. prajanath! vidvan purush dharm ko hi trivarg ki prapti ka ekamatr upay batate haian. at: jo dharm ke dvara arth aur kam ko pana chahata hai, vah shighr hi usi prakar unnati ki disha mean age badh jata hai, jaise sookhe tinakoan mean lagi huee ag badh jati hai. tat bharatashreshth! tum samast rajaoan mean vikhyat is vishal evan ujjval samrajy ko anuchit upay se pana chahate ho. rajan! jo uttam vyavahar karane vale satpurushoan ke sath asadvyavahar karata hai, vah kulha di se jangal ki bhaanti us durvyavahar se apane-apako hi katata hai. manushy jisaka parabhav n karana chahe, usaki buddhi ka uchchhed n kare. jisaki buddhi nasht nahian huee hai, usi purush ka man kalyanakari karyoan mean pravrit hota hai.

bharatanandan! manasvi purush ko chahie ki vah tinoan lokoan mean kisi prakrit purush ka bhi apaman n kare, phir in shreshth paandavoan ke apaman ki to bat hi kya hai? eershya ke vash mean rahane vala manushy kisi bat ko thik se samajh nahian pata. bharatanandan! dekho, eershyalu manushy ke samaksh prastut kie hue sampoorn vistrit praman bhi uchchhinn se ho jate haian. tat! kisi bhi dusht manushy ka sath karane ki apeksha paandavoan ke sath mel milap rakhana tumhare lie vishesh kalyanakari hai. paandavoan se prem rakhane par tum sampoorn manorathoan ko prapt kar loge. nripashreshth! tum paandavoan dvara sthapit rajy ka upabhog kar rahe ho, to bhi unhian ko pichhe karake arthat unaki avahelana karake doosaroan se apani raksha ki asha rakhate ho. bharat! tum du:shasan, durvishah, karn aur shakuni- in sab par apane aishvary ka bhar rakhakar unnati ki ichchha rakhate ho? bharatanandan! ye tumhean jnan, dharm aur arth ki prapti karane mean samarth nahian haian aur paandavoan ke samane parakram prakat karane mean bhi ye asamarth hi haian. tumhare sahit ye sab raja log bhi yuddh mean kupit hue bhimasen ke mukh ki or aankh uthakar dekh hi nahian sakate. tat! tumhare nikat jo yah samast rajaoan ki sena ekatr huee hai, yah tatha bhishm, dron, karn, kripachary, somadattaputr bhoorishrava, ashvatthama aur jayadrath- ye sabhi milakar bhi arjun ka samana karane mean samarth nahian haian. sampoorn devata aur asur bhi yuddh mean arjun ko jit nahian sakate. ve samast manushyoan aur gandharvoan ke dvara bhi ajey haian, at: tum yuddh ka vichar mat karo. rajaoan ki in sampoorn senaoan mean kisi aise purush par drishtipat to karo, jo yuddh mean arjun ka samana karake kushalapoorvak apane ghar laut sake?

bharatashreshth! yah narasanhar karane se tumhean kya labh hoga? tum apane paksh mean kisi aise purush ko dhooandh nikalo, jo us arjun par vijay pa sake, jisake jite jane par tumhare paksh ki vijay man li jaye. jinhoanne khaandav van mean gandharvoan, yakshoan, asuroan aur nagoan sahit sampoorn devataoan ko jit liya tha, un arjun ke sath kaun manushy yuddh kar sakega? isake siva virat nagar mean jo bahut se maharathi yoddhaoan ke sath ek arjun ke yuddh ki atyant adbhut ghatana suni jati hai, vah ek hi yuddh ke bhavi parinam ko batane ke lie prayapt hai. jinhoanne yuddh mean sakshat mahadev shiv ko apane parakram se santusht kiya hai, apani maryada se kabhi chyut n hone vale un ajey, durdharsh evan vijayashil balashali vir arjun ko tum yuddh mean jitane ki asha rakhate ho, yah b de ashchary ki bat hai. phir maian jisaka sarathi banakar sath rahooan aur vah arjun pratipakshi hokar yuddh ke lie ae, us samay sakshat iandr hi kyoan n hoan, kaun arjun ke sath yuddh karana chahega? jo samarabhoomi mean arjun ko jit sakata hai, vah mano apani donoan bhujaoan par prithvi ko utha sakata hai, kupit hone par is samast praja ko dagdh kar sakata hai aur devataoan ko svarg se niche gira sakata hai. duryodhan! apane in putroan, bhaiyoan, kutuanbijanoan aur sage-sanbandhiyoan ki aur to dekho. ye shreshth bharatavanshi tumhare karan nasht n ho jaean. nareshvar! kaurav vansh bacha rahe, is kul ka parabhav n ho aur tum bhi apani kirti ka nash karake kulaghati n kahalao. maharathi paandav tumhian ko yuvaraj ke pad par sthapit kareange aur tumhare pita raja dhritarashtr ko maharaj ke pad par banae rakheange. tat! apane ghar mean ane ko udyat huee rajalakshmi ka apaman n karo. kuanti ke putroan ko adha rajy dekar svayan vishal sanpati ka upabhog karo. paandavoan ke sath sandhi karake aur apane hitaishi suhridayoan ki bat manakar mitroan ke sath prasannatapoorvak rahate hue tum dirghakal tak kalyan ke bhagi bane rahoge.'
