Arjun’s Kshatriya Ego and distractions, Krishna’s logic (महाभारत में अर्जुन का क्षत्रिय अहंकार)In the middle of the Kurukshetra battle of Mahabharat, Arjun was challenged by Trigartas for a duel, called Sanshaptaka संशप्तक (to fight till death). A ploy to lure Arjun away from the main battle, creating an opening for Drona to capture Yudhishthira. The incident is an example of how Arjuna's Kshatriya (warrior) pride makes him susceptible to distractions. Despite Krishna's sound reasoning, Arjun chooses to follow the dictates of his mind (or heart) – succumbing to fleeting distractions, allowing his ego to trump logic, and losing sight of the grand scheme. Interestingly, humans are wired for distraction. It's not a flaw we acquire, but a built-in feature. Even the laser-focused Arjuna could be swayed at times, that with the greatest Guru by his side. More in the audio.महाभारत की कई कहानियों में जो संदेश मिलते हैं वो समय से परे हैं, आज भी उतने ही प्रासंगिक जीतने किसी भी युग में रहे होंगे। ये कहानी है महाभारत में युद्ध के दूसरे सप्ताह से, जब आचार्य द्रोण युधिष्ठिर को बंदी बनाना चाहते हैं और उसके लिए आवश्यक है कि अर्जुन को कुरुक्षेत्र से कहीं दूर ले जाया जाए। ये काम सौंपा जाता है त्रिगर्त राज सुशर्मा को, जो अर्जुन को "संशप्तक" युद्ध की चुनौती देता है, और उसके लिए मुख्य युद्धभूमि से दूर जाना होगा। कृष्ण समझाते हैं किंतु अर्जुन अपने क्षत्रिय अहंकार में समझने से इनकार कर देते हैं और नतीजा - मुख्य युद्ध से अर्जुन हट जाते है, अपने मुख्य लक्ष्य से ही कुछ समय के लिए दूर चले जाते हैं। https://www.instagram.com/_ibnbatuta/Two years ago, Uday and I started on a journey to retell the tales of the #Mahabharat. Along the way, I've encountered stories that demand a deeper reflection, messages that resonate across the ages.

Mahabharat Stories: Vidura's wit and a curious wife (महाभारत महासमर - विदुर पारसंवी का प्रेम संवाद)
Ever noticed how professional teams (and friendships / personal relationships!) seem to follow a particular pattern? Tuckman's model captures this perfectly: ‘Forming » Storming » Norming » Performing’. My favourite equivalent of this is the life of a river - Starting fiercely wild and free in the mountains (forming), but a picture of calm as it reaches the plains (norming), becoming a source of life (performing).Even the epic Mahabharata reflects this! Here's a (part fictional) conversation between Vidur and Parsanvi that highlights this idea. Parsanvi is Vidur's wife, a lesser talked about person.एक कहानी विदुर और उनकी पत्नी के प्रेम संवाद की जहां बात होती है कि एक प्रेमी का शुरुआती प्रेम कैसा होता है और वो क्या रूप लेता है, जैसे एक पहाड़ी नदी जब अपने प्रचंड रूप से शान्त मैदानी नदी बन जाती है। कुछ ऐसी ही बातें मैनेजमेंट ज्ञान में आती है जब हम एक नई टीम बनाने की बात करते हैं। https://www.instagram.com/_ibnbatuta/Credit: #Mahasamar written by Narendra Kohli#Mahabharat#History#Hindi#philosophy #poetry #epic#India#Mahasamar#stories#storytelling#mythology

भोले भालू और चालाक लोमड़ी की कहानी | Hindi Stories for Kids | Bhola Bhalu, Chalak Lomdi - Shivani
Ep. 17: Bhola Bhalu aur Chalak Lampat Lomdi ki Kahani - Shivaniभोले भालू और चालाक लोमड़ी की कहानी - शिवानीThis is a story written by Shivani (also known as Gaura Pant). Shivani usually writes serious stories of life but she has written some adorable stories for kids. This is one such stories from Shivani's book - "Radhika Sundari". I have added a little bit of drama in the story.शिवानी (गौरा पंत) वैसे तो गंभीर कहानियाँ लिखती हैं लेकिन उनकी बाल कहानियाँ भी बहुत मनोरंजक हैं और ये कहानी है एक बूढ़ी किंतु बुद्धिमान बकरी की, जो शिवानी के कहानी संग्रह "राधिका सुंदरी" से ली गई है। बस मैंने इसमें थोड़ा सा "ड्रामा" भी मिला दिया है ;-) Credit: Shivani's book Radhika Sundari Voice: Arisudan------------------Welcome to Jal Tarang - your podcast for celebrating the beauty of Hindi stories, poetry, philosophical musings, and more.
