Chakravyuh ka chakkar !!!

It was a few days back, I got the epic tale of Mahabharat copied from my friend. Thanks to BR Chopra. the guy who presented it in such a nice way... It was not like I was seeing it for the first time. I have been fascinated by the epic tale of Mahabharata since childhood. I have frequently pondered over the numerous nuances of the story, trying to figure out how and why things happened as they did, and what was the hidden message behind it all.

One of my areas of interest has been the Chakravyuha formation used by Dronacharya to kill Abhimanyu. I have often wondered what the formation actually looked like, and why was it so difficult to breach? and how exactly exitting it was different from entering it? What was it that Abhimanyu missed out on?  I have been trying to uncover the answers to some of my questions through some internet research. As with any epic that has been handed down through countless generations, the anecdotes from Mahabharata have been interpreted and presented in various ways by various people. Since I have encountered various interpretations of the Chakravyuha incident as well, the mystery still remains unfold.


Looking forward to answers...but dont know from whom ...

My Train Journey

It feels so wonderful..  To be on your own.. All by yourself.. In the train..Swaying to the beats of the train.. I amongst the unknown crowd, Seated with an eye on my luggage.. And the other on my novel..  The solemn music of the train..The rhythm, the pattern.. The feeling of the strong wind on my face, so prominent, just like a splash of water! I in my cozy window seat..It’s so exciting The people around searching for seat.. The TC in daily mood of corruption  Luggage stacked overhead in a row, Fans not working, Tubes flickering, No call... no messaging! (Due to no network :-P) The Indian railways is Always so amazing..
