Mahaabhaarat
About Yudhishthir's Angry Eyes Anybody knows where this information came from? Soorya Vansh in Kali Yug
Has anyone heard these names in Kali Yug? Draupadee
insulted both Dhritraashtra and Duryodhan And, in fact, this was the main reason that he decided to invite Paandav for dice game and to let them down and bear the result for the insult done by Draupadee Who killed
Mahishaasur? Who killed Mahishaasur? Mention
of Foreign Countries in Hindu Scriptures Normally our Hindu scriptures whenever mention about the world, it seems that it was all Bhaarat Varsh, nothing else. There was nothing else at all. So I was wondering where were all the other countries which we find on our Earth today, in those times? Tulasee's Maanas and Vaalmeeki's Raamaayan do not mention any country other than Bhaarat Varsh, except Lankaa which also doesn't seem to be actual foreign country, because its guards (Khar, Dooshan and Shoorpankhaa) were living in southern India, because there was no land in Lankaa for them to live so they were protecting their place from here. Mahaabhaarat mentions about Gaandhaar, but Gaandhaar (Kandhaar of today) was also a part of Bhaarat Varsh in olden days. It is the first time I am reading a foreign country's name in our scriptures - Mahaabhaarat. Its mention shows that there existed this country (China) at the time of Mahaabhaarat and it was supposed to be famous for deer skins. It is really strange. OR was it a part of Bhaarat Varsh, from where Dhritraashtra could get those deer skins? Mention of Other States Who Was Karn's Brother? We have never
heard of any brother of Karn. Then who was his brother? His name also
has not been mentioned, except "Karn's brother".
