Unique Mahabharat

Gurudev's wish of Gurudakshina

Arjun's P.O.V.

We were in the Raj Sabha. 

"Maharaj Dhritarashtr is making his entrance!" said a guard, after Maharaj sat on his throne we all sat down Maharaj gestured to start, Kakashree Vidur stood up

"Mantriyon and people in the Raj Sabha, all of us are eager to know Maharaj's decision." said Kakashree

"But, Maharaj," said Kakashree Vidur looking at Maharaj

"before you announce the Yuvraj, if Mhamhim Bhishma blesses the Rajkumaro, then the education of the Rajkumaro will be complete. But only if you allow it." he said

"Avashya. Tatshree will address the court." said Maharaj, Pitamaha got up

"Kuruvanshiyo, this day brings a new beginning for the Kuru Rashtr." said Pitamaha I smiled nodding

"Happier times and new successes will begin today, Prajajano. Before a man sets out on his journey, he stands at the gates of his house and takes a look at it and embraces every memory, vision, thought. Today I too, am seeing my past before me. I can see a time when, in the royal courtyard, my Priya Dhritarashtr, Pandu and Vidur, would sit next to me and take their lessons." he said I saw Kakashree Vidur smile nodding

"Once, on an early morning, I saw the three Rajkumaro playing a strange game. In which, Pandu and Vidur, had climbed the highest branch of a tree and with complete confidence, they called their Jyesht and jump off the tree." he said, I saw Kakashree Vidur smile and Maharaj was tearing up

"And Dhritarashtr ran to them and caught them in his arms, he did not let them fall to the ground." said Pitamaha, I lowered my head emotionally, tearing up

"Upon seeing this, I told the three princes, Stop! I called Pandu over to me and asked him, Pandu, what kind of game are you playing, putra?! If you had fallen on the ground you could've died. And to this Pandu smiled and said Tatshree, my Jyesht bhrata was standing there, he would never let me fall." said Pitamaha, Kakashree smile tearing up Jyesht, Bhrata Yudhisthir, Bhrata Bheem, Tara, Nakul and Sahadev smiled tearing up

"Upon hearing this I told him, Pandu, your Jyesht bhrata can only hear your voice, he can't see you. Upon hearing this Pandu smiled again and said Tatshree, my Jyesht bhrata does not need eyes to see me, his love for me is enough to help him see me." he said Maharaj closed his eyelids tearing up even more

"That day, those three boys..." said Pitamaha tearing up

"my Shishys taught me... a new lesson... The lesson of love and trust." he said. I smiled and whipped my tears

"Maharaj, when Yamraj must have come to take your Anuj away then he would never have questioned. As to who's trust should I leave my Putro and Putri with and go with you? I can say with complete confidence, Maharaj, that your Anuj would never put this question forth. Be it jumping off branches of a tree... or meeting Yamraj himself, your Anuj had faith in you and only you, Maharaj. I will not be able to say anything more, Maharaj. At this point of time may lord motivate you." said Pitamaha and raised his hand

"This is my blessing." he said and sat down, we all wiped our tears, Maharaj stood up

"Kurujhano, I am faced with a terrible dilemma. I've always had the intention of choosing the most worthy Yuvraj during the Yuvrajabhishek. That is why the competition was held. But unfortunately, the outcome of this competition was such that one could draw different conclusions from it. The decision is a tough one." he said Jyesht nodded

"Because Tatshree's advice is appropriate. A Raja takes the oath of always being on the path of Dharm. When it comes to me, this oath can not be forgotten either. That is why I must look for Dharm within my heart for it is very important." said Maharaj, Duryodhan looked tensed then he stood up
