Bhishma in battle, facing Shikhandin, Krishna, and Arjuna. |
Source. Indian Myth and Legend by Donald A. Mackenzie (1913). [800 words]
The appearance of Arjuna's unknown brother and rival intrigues me. I find it interesting that Karna also does not know his lineage or speak of it and still finds his way into being royalty. It will be interesting to see how Karma itself will play this out. The mother Kunti putting the baby in the basket in the river who is blessed and divine with gifts, reminds me of a few other people of literature that wind up being important people. Such as Moses, or the twins Romulus and Remus.
