MAHABHARATA, 7 --Great Eic of India --PANDAWA BORN IN THE FOREST



The forest was very dense, tree trunks staunch support branches and twigs and then stuck a green leaf. There was no sign of life in the forest except the sound of children's time water flowing, the wind messing leaves, grasses, and wildflowers. Various wildlife living in the forest for a limitless period, the forest is home to every kind of wildlife.

That day in the woods atmosphere somewhat different, King Pandu like other kings who have a penchant for hunting, archery forest animals are always the cause of pleasure, sometimes even excessive. Pandu was sure he was going home with the animals hunted. When he saw a pair of deer middle mingle, Pandu immediately aiming arrows. He has been trained from an early age to aim precisely, this time shooting was not missed. Sycamore child with definite speed darting, penetrating the body of a stag in a span of time that is not too long. The beast fell to the ground, bleeding. Pandu never knows who the real stag unless an animal is worthy of being hunted. At first, he was very happy, but in a short time pleasure it turns into anxiety and fear.

Bloodied deer collapsed suddenly transformed into a sage. His eyes filled with anger when cold claims, stating curse pastu with a hissing sound, "Pandu, you are indeed sinful man. True, humans have always mistreated by a forest animal, even though the animal was actually a sage. You mark my words, if you get a second secret relationship with your wife, then arrived on the day of death ". The sages then disappeared, leaving Pandu in silence unsettling.

The words were short and quick, but for Pandu quite as awful warning that would change his whole life. King Astinapura blood descendants of Bharata was transfixed, his legs shaking, his heartbeat thundered as if the leaves in the wind storm, cold sweat. He knew the meaning of the curse receipt, a better man never knows when the day of his death will come, then he can continue to live in peace. Pandu now he knows when death will come, he would never be able to touch both the Madrim or Kunti. It means that the life of the world has ended before the time comes, before the consort of Bharata blood able to produce offspring. Pandu sighed, an error has slammed destiny to live forever. Pandu know what to do, he can not playback time, but he still could clean themselves.

After returning to the palace of Pandu need to calm down and then meet formally with Bhisma, "I am a king, but I have made a mistake with archery a sage who appears as a deer. He has condemned, ensuring the day of death. I need to purify themselves, leaving the life of the world to go meditate. Keep this kingdom together Vidura until the time came to return descendant of Bharata enthroned as king Astinapura ", Pandu did not elaborate and never retract his words. After the speech he was packing up to leave the palace to go imprisoned, the major decisions that will ultimately change the destiny of the descendants of Bharata forever.
Kunti and Madrim obliged to follow where the husband went even have to leave the throne and then lived as a hermit in the woods. Astinapura is a magnificent palace which had plenty of space and high walls, Kunti has a considerable distance so as not always intersect with the lives Madrim. But when shall dwell in booths in the middle of the forest as a hermit, then every day only three of them were always there. Originally Kunti feel strange, but the more days she began to get used to, although incandescent jealousy against Madrim never extinguished.

Kunti could not overcome the feeling of sadness, neither she nor Madrim not yet blessed with a child, while Pandu had received pastu curse, so he should not be touching one of the two wives or he should die. So who will lower blood Bharata? Kunti remembered the spell given by sage Durvasa, without the need he tells of the birth of Karna, because of his encounter with Batara Surya,  God of Sun. Kunti could not help herself, she must convey about the spell was for the children to be born.

"Without the presence of children, this line will end, if I and Madrim allowed to utter the spell, then the child will be born as a descendant of Pandu", Kunti courage, she should convey this possibility or she would never have descent in her marriage with Pandu.

"Say the spell together Madrim, may be born children under Pandu marital bond that will lower bloodlines Bharata", Pandu replied confidently, he did not doubt the good intentions of Kunti, the woman known as the virtue.

When Kunti and Madrim give spell, then five gods came down from Heaven to meet that demand. Miraculously Kunti contains later gave birth to three sons, the first Yudhistira as an incarnation of Batara Dharma, God of Justice and Death, respected, because courage, magnanimity, and authority. The second son named Bhima or Bhimasena, is the incarnation of Lord Bayu, the Wind God. Bhima respected, because it embodies the extraordinary power pad man. Bhima is described as a brave knight, act decisively, be straight and honest. The third son named Arjuna, is the incarnation Batara Indra, God of Thunder and Lightning. Arjuna means white bright, clean like silver. He was respected, because of the nature brave, noble minds, generous, gentle, noble stand for truth and honour.

The Madrim magically also gave birth to two twin sons named Nakula and Sadewa. Both twin sons was an incarnation of Lord Aswin, God Twins, Son of God Sun. Nakula and Sadewa symbolizes courage, spirit, obedience and eternal friendship.

Lonely cottage atmosphere has become crowded with five sons education cultivation and dexterity of a warrior. Then, the daybreak, into weeks, months, and years. There's nothing wrong in that life, until beautiful spring arrives. The leaves are withered and then fall back as the young shoots grow, bung-withered flowers re-bloom in a variety of dazzling colour and impression. The wind smelled of fireworks in all directions, causing human complacent, pushed back the natural qualities.

Pandu was stunned when he looked Madrim standing between various petals of flower colour, she now only wear a hermit. However, modest clothing was unable to hide her figure slender as a marble statue hand carved renowned engraver. Her face is soft glow, Madrim never complained to life at the Hermitage, although in fact she was a princess. Pandu never doubted the loyalty and love of Madrim, although she was only a second wife. Pandu almost lost consciousness when his hands moved grabbing arm Madrim smooth and soft. He had been too long a time, he never touched the beautiful woman, something that has now turned into a rumble miss. After the archery deer in the woods, once again Pandu mistaken.

On the other hand, Madrim stunned, she made a mistake, do not remind Pandu, she drifted into the inner life of a beautiful stream thrilling. She let the spring to take her away further along the only person who loved, the one who made her capable of anything. Originally both drift on deep together and intoxicating. However, suddenly choking breath Pandu, a pair of eyes wide, whole-body movement stopped, he stuck to the incurable pain. A pair of lungs could no longer breathe. Pandu moan before his last breath, he had forgotten the curse pastu a sage. When he dared to touch one of the wives, then it means death. Beautiful spring and beauty Madrim has taken him to the last day, the day of death.

Madrim vain tried to wake Pandu, after spring led him to a thrilling and beautiful matchless, now she fell down in mourning and grief. Madrim sob, if she reminds Pandu not to be dragged in bodily confidential relationship he did not have to die at that time. Regret late. Madrim thinking fast, she must pay a mistake, she must do something in order not to the natural death of Pandu alone. After preaching death and then prepare a cremation ceremony, Madrim open a private conversation with Kunti.

"Kunti always be remembered, as a virtue, I know, in fact, you have never been able to accept my presence at the side of Pandu. Had a princess can circumvent the winner of the contest, we will never be the wife of the same king. But the twist of life are often beyond the reach of humans. Now King Pandu was gone, I was instrumental in the death, if I was reminded, he was still there between us. I could not let a husband go alone to the nature of death, because of my fault anyway. I'll do satya, burn me with the husband's body, it means Nakula and Sadewa not only will lose the father, but they also will lose a mother .... " beautiful eyes of Madrim with pleading stare Kunti face, a face that can not guess how her heart. Kunti was being friendly, not too rough, but Madrim knew she was indeed the greatest enemy of the woman. Now, hse take leave to go on forever, hopefully with this departure, Kunti will regain the peace that has been long lost. Madrim eyes glazed then dew falls cheeks. Beautiful women is no longer standing, she sat down to her knees for forgiveness and final request.

On the other hand Kunti stood there, stunned. She was still in grief, the death of Pandu so quickly, even before his five sons growing up. Now, a beautiful princess who managed to win the love of Pandu, sit cross-legged for an apology and a request. As if just yesterday, she received Madrim in clash in a terrible fire of jealousy burn. She let the princess was no answer but the utter fine words to expel her. True, she never wanted Madrim presence in her life, the beautiful princess was put as a loser. However, what it really means defeat, a king who contested gone. Neither she nor Madrim is a widow. Now, Madrim with all humility intend to satya, burn herself then go on forever. Shall she could hate her?

Unconsciously Kunti hands outstretched, she immediately felt the cold hands powerless, when Madrim receive a helping hand. "When I'm gone, please keep Nakula Sadewa as well as to guard Yudhisthira, Bhima and Arjuna. Your son is now five Pandavas, I was always convinced beyond our problems as the wife of Pandu, you are a noble-hearted woman .... " Madrim no longer able to speak, she would feel the most painful moment, having lost a beloved husband, she must be willing to let the flame burn the whole body for the deaths. She no longer be eligible for life, she could not accompany Nakula Sadewa grew up, she asked Kunti, a woman who did not love her. When she saw Kunti nodded her head with a dark face clouded, Madrim breathed a sigh of relief. She kissed the hand of Kunti with all sincerity for the last time, staring eyes noblewoman was subsequently resigned.

In its place stood  Kunti silent of thousand languages, once again she was not able to say, everything passes quickly without can be stopped. She threw a very long time to hate and sorrow, now all does not mean anything. Madrim will soon disappear into ashes, bringing the whole memories of life with Pandu. When the fire burning flaming corpse devoured Pandu then beautiful body Madrim, Kunti could not hold back the sobs, the loss is always painful. The entire defeat of the presence Madrim who managed to win the love Pandu ended up here.

Now, Kunti is a single mother of five Pandava, Yudhishthira, Bhima, Arjuna, Nakula and Sadewa. Without responsibility and affection of a mother, five Pandavas would never grow up to be a knight. Madrim managed to get a special place in the hearts of Pandu, but she was never able to take her place as the mother of the Pandavas glorious first, Yudhistira, who would reign as king of the descendants of Bharata. Is she must hate women who had been burnt to ashes?

There is a heavy responsibility that must be borne, raising the five Pandavas.
