Did the woman deserve to die? Why or why not? In what way is her death symbolic?
In the story of Mahabharata,Pandavas,the good souls who followed the right path had Lord Krishna in every journey of their life. It is obvious fact that who has Lord on their side will achieve Sky and the incorrect doers, The Kauravas will reach Hell.
Just hither the upshot was unlike. In that location was a twist in tale. ' Pandavas' concluded upwards in Hell while ' Kauravas' concluded upwards in Sky!!!
How tin can this be Justifiable?
The Pandavas who went through all miseries in this world, lost their rights to rule,finally fought against the their cousins Kauravas and in the end what they get is HELL!!!
The Kauravas who oppressed their cousins, usurped their kingdom and their rights, lived happily and in the end go killed for the wrongdoings finally terminate upwardly in Sky!!!
So what is the moral? Exercise bad deeds you end up in heaven, and you exist righteous and good, y'all will end up in hell???
So hither is the story which specifies why we need to earn profits of karma...
The Pancha Pandavas ruled the Hastinapura dynasty for 36 yrs and earned a good name and fame. They established a righteous Kingdom and one day finally they all decided that the time has come up for them to renounce the world.
And so the 5 Pandavas and thier common wife,The Draupadi left to the path of liberation.For this purpose they all climbed the Meru Mountain which leads them to the Swarga Loka. Unfortunately on their way, they slipped and died one by one.
The outset to die was Draupadi, she was imperfect because she preferred Arjuna over her other husbands.Then it was Sahadeva, imperfect considering he was smug virtually his knowledge.Followed by Nakula, imperfect considering he was arrogant about his good looks.And so brutal Arjuna, imperfect because he was always jealous of other archers.Then, Bhima, imperfect because he was a glutton.
Only the eldest pandava, Yudhisthira, reached the door of Swarga Loka carried on Lord Indra'south chariot.On reaching Sky he did non find either his virtuous brothers or his wife Draupadi. Instead he saw Duryodhana, Bheesma, Dronacharya etc and their sons.
He wanted an caption from Lord Yama,The lord of death.
Lord Yama explained,
" Considering the Kauravas died as warriors are supposed to, on the battlefield. This earned them so much merit and credit that it wiped out all their debts. "
Yudhisthira demanded to know where his brothers and his married woman were. He was then taken to Hell.
Lord Yama explained,
" They are experiencing the reactions of their deportment. "
Yudhisthira was astonished.
Lord Yama smiled and said,
" This is temporary. Once the debt has been repaid, they volition join the Kauravas in Swarga. You as well had to feel Hell for the one and only white lie you spoke in your lifetime "
Yudhisthira loyally encounter his brothers, merely the sight and sound of gore and blood horrified him. Though initially he was tempted to flee, he mastered himself and remained after hearing the voices of his love brothers and Draupadi calling out to him, asking him to stay with them in their misery. Yudhisthira decided to remain, ordering the divine charioteer to render. He preferred to live in hell with good people than in a heaven of his enemies. Eventually this turned out to be another illusion to test him and also to enable him to atone for his sin of telling a white prevarication.
Flashback........
(It is said that Yudhisthira never spoke a lie. Once he did information technology, in Mahabharat war it was felt that Guru Dronacharya should be killed as he would not permit pandavas to win.
On the 15th 24-hour interval of the Mahābhārata war, Drona got instigated by King Dhritarastra's remarks of being a traitor. He used the Brahmadanda against the Pandavas. Brahmadanda was a spiritual divine weapon that contained the powers of seven greatest sages of Hinduism. Simply Drona did not impart this noesis either to Arjuna nor to Ashwatthama.Thus, he proved to be unconquerable on the 15th day of war.
Observing this, Lord Krishna devised a programme to bring down the invincible Drona. Krishna knew that information technology was not possible to defeat Drona when he had bow and arrow in his hands. Krishna also knew that Drona loved his son Ashwatthama very dearly. So, Krishna suggested to Yudhisthira and other Pandava brothers that, if he were convinced that his son was killed on the battlefield, then Drona would go dejected to such an extent that he would lay downwards all his arms on the basis and information technology would exist easier to kill him.
In lodge to discover a mode out, Krishna suggested Bhima to kill an elephant by proper noun Ashwatthama and merits to Drona that he has killed Drona'due south son Ashwathama. Following this plan, Bhima located and killed an elephant named Ashwatthama, i.e. the same name as Drona'south son. He so loudly proclaimed that he had slain Ashwatthama, so as to make Drona call back that his son was expressionless.
Drona however, did not believe Bhima'south words and approached Yudhisthira. Drona knew of Yudhisthira'south firm adherence to Dharma and that he would never ever utter a lie. When Drona approached Yudhisthira and questioned him as to whether his son was truly slain in the battle by Bhima, Yudhisthira responded with the ambiguous Sanskrit phrase "Ashwatthama hathaha iti, narova kunjarova" " अश्वत्थाम- हतः इति , नरोवा कुंजरोवा ..." meaning 'Ashwatthama is dead. Only, I am not sure whether information technology was a human or an elephant'.)
While Yudhisthira was remembering this past events,Lord Indra and Lord Krishna appeared before him and told him that his brothers were already in Heaven.
This story is a moral that no one tin can escape from bondage without balancing our Karma.
Even Lord Krishna had to suffer the consequences.Lord of Lords was bound past Karma.
Mahabharata, the historical battle fought in Kurukshetra resulted in the death of all the hundred sons of King Dhritarashtra and Gandhari. Lord Krishna is said to take visited Female parent Gandhari to offer his condolence. In a fit of rage and sorrow, Mata Gandhari cursed Bhagwan Krishna that just as the Kaurava dynasty had concluded fighting with each other, similarly the Yaduvanshi dynasty would stop fighting and killing each other. Mother Gandhari felt that Sri Krishna didn't play a fair role in putting an end to the war. Lord Krishna happily accepted the curse.
According to a sociology, Sage Vishwamitra and Sage Narada once visited the city of Dwarka to encounter Lord Krishna. A few children of Lord Krishna dressed upwards Samba (Son of Sri Krishna and Jambavati) equally a pregnant adult female and asked the visiting sages to foretell what kind of a child Samba volition bear. Feeling insulted, the sages cursed that Samba will requite nascency to an Iron rod which in plow will be instrumental in the fall of the Yaduvanshi Dynasty. The very adjacent day, Samba gave birth to an fe rod. Lord Krishna's sons crushed it into powder and threw the bottle in the body of water. Nonetheless, one twenty-four hour period the canteen was washed upwardly the shore and the powdered iron took grade of an arrow. Lord Krishna could foresee everything and as a concluding resort to save his Dynasty, prohibited liquor in the city of Dwarka. Somewhen, the Yadavas became drunkard and killed each other with iron rods. None of them survived.
Lord Krishna went to a forest near Somnath in Bhalka Tirth to meditate. Jara, a hunter mistook the lord'south feet to exist a deer and accidentally shot him with the arrow. This arrow was the aforementioned which was made from the cursed iron rod

Unless we perform... unless nosotros indulge in good karma all the time... our manifesting the human grade is a disgrace! In nowadays times... ... the Dark Historic period it sometimes becomes hard to distinguish human beings from animals! Nosotros sometimes stoop so low that the very purpose of a soul atman manifesting a human class seemed lost!
In sacred Bhagavad Gita and Bhagavatham of Hinduism Lord Krishna exhorts all human beings to exert karma at their best! If nosotros truly desire manifesting destiny ever in life... we need controlling our karma... the base input! It is by controlling our karma... finally overcoming it... man beings reached the stage of enlightenment (kaivalya jnana) forever.
Simply similar a clever buisnessman puts his earnings and hardship in those areas where he is sure to gain profits,as well we need to surrender to the Lord and do our service in such a way that we proceeds profits of good karma and achieve liberation from bondage.
Permit Goodness prevail in thoughts and actions and allow goodness prevail to serve mankind.
