Bhairavnath and Vaishnodevi Bhairavnath was a learned sage, who had accumulated so much knowledge that he had become arrogant about it. One day, Goddess Durga was born as Vaishnoi to a couple who lived in the same village as Bhairavnath. As the little girl was growing up, Bhairavnath observed that she has special skills, and got suspicious of her. He would follow her and observe that she went into a cave every day, and then disappeared. One day, he located her and followed her to misbehave. This angered Vaishno, who turned into the angry Goddess Kali and killed Bhairavnath with her trident. Bhairavnath was surprised to see this form of the goddess. With his dying breath, he asked for forgiveness. His honest plea melted the goddess’ heart, and she accepted his apology. Later, she granted him the boon that Vaishnodevi pilgrimage would only be considered complete when pilgrims also visited the Bhairavnath temple to worship him. Moral: It is never too late to shun one’s ego and transform into a good person.

Arjuna’s concentration One day, the Pandavas were having a class in archery with Guru Dronacharya. Dronacharya stuck a wooden bird to the tree and asked each Pandava brother to shoot the eye of the bird. 🧤But before they shot the arrow, Dronacharya asked each of them about what they saw. Each Pandava said that they could see the tree, the sky, and the leaves. Dronacharya asked to them shoot the arrow later 🧤It was eventually Arjuna’s turn. When Dronacharya asked him what he saw, Arjuna replied that he could see nothing but the eye of the bird, which he had to shoot. Dronacharya was impressed by his reply and asked Arjuna to shoot the arrow, which went straight through the eye of the wooden bird. Moral: Concentration and complete focus are the key to success.

Ekalavya’s allegiance to his teacher Ekalavya was a young prince of Nishada, a hunter tribe. He wanted to become a great warrior by learning the skills from Dronacharya, the teacher of the Pandavas and the Kauravas. He approached Dronacharya but the latter turned him away as Ekalavya was from a lower caste in the community. Ekalavya was hurt but did not give up his will to become an archer. He collected the soil on which Dronacharya walked and made an idol out of it. He treated Dronacharya’s idol as the symbolic teacher and perfected himself in archery through several years of practice. When Dronacharya learned about Ekalavya’s skill, he visited him to know about his Guru. Ekalavya then showed him the idol and said, “You are my Guru.” Dronacharya was worried that Ekalavya would become a better archer than Arjuna, Dronacharya’s favorite student. Therefore, he asked Ekalavya to give his right thumb as Guru Dakshina (teacher’s fee). Without any questions asked, Ekalavya chopped his thumb and gave it away to Dronacharya thus forfeiting an opportunity to be a better archer than Arjuna. Moral: This story teaches about being focused on one’s goal, and respecting the teachers.

The Valiant Abhimanyu Abhimanyu was the son of Arjuna and Subhadra. When Subhadra was pregnant with Abhimanyu, Arjuna, one of the five Pandava brothers, decided to tell his wife about the Chakravyuh war technique Arjuna narrated to Subhadra how to break the Chakravyuh, a labyrinth formed by armed soldiers to trap the enemy, and enter it. Abhimanyu heard and memorized the entire process from inside Subhadra’s womb. But by the time Arjuna told her about coming out of the Chakravyuh, Subhadra fell asleep. As a result, Abhimanyu learned only entering the labyrinth but couldn’t know how to come out of it. Later in life, when young Abhimanyu fought in the great Kurukṣhetra War of Mahabharatai, he had to confront the enemy’s Chakravyuh formation. He could get into the formation, but could not come out. Abhimanyu took a chariot wheel and swung it around, fighting enemies unarmed. He did not give up easily and fought valiantly till his last breath. Moral: Abhimanyu’s tale teaches us to stay determined even when the situation is not in our favor. One must never give up, no matter how tough the going gets.

Before Alexander came to India, his teacher Aristotle had asked him, "Bring a sannyasin when you come back. I would like to see what a sannyasin is like, what it is all about because that is greatest contribution of India to the world." After invading India, When he was going back he remembered. He inquired where to find a sannyasin. People said, "Sannyasin are many but real are very few. We know one." When Alexander went to see sannyasin, As he entered into energy field of that sannyasin, he was tremendously affected, he saw same beauty as Diogenes, same peace, he remembered Diogenes immediately. He said to sannyasin, "I have come to invite you - come with me. You will be out royal guest, every comfort will be provided for. Sannyasin said, "I have dropped all coming and going." Alexander couldn't understand. He said, "This is commandment.. I command you.. You have to follow. This is order from the great Alexander." Sannyasin laughed and said, "Nobody can command me, not even death." Alexander got angry and pulled out his sword and said, "You don't understand. I am a very dangerous man. Either you will come with me or i will cut off your head." Sannyasin said, "Do it, cut off the head. Because what you are going to do now, I have done years before. When the head falls, you will see it falling on the earth and I will also see it falling on the earth." Alexander was surprised to his answer and said, "How will you see it? You will be dead!" Sannyasin said, "That is the point: I cannot die anymore, I have become a witness. I will witness my death as much as you will witness. It will happen between us two - you will be seeing, will be seeing. And my purpose in the body is fulfilled: I have attained. There is no need for the body to exist anymore. Cut off the head!" Alexander had to put his sword back in the sheath as he realized that he cannot kill such man.
