SECTION 49
*Factors that allured Duryodhana*
Dhritrashtra ---- he din’t leave any stone unturned to resist duryodhana. Assured
him how benevolent vidhur has been consequently pay heed towards him and
stop being so impulsive . Moreover , he elaborated the morals and enormous
foresight power possessed by vidhura . Moving to the disastrous evil intention
dhritrashtra implied upon duryodhana to quit the idea of dicing as it might lead to
dissensions and that can cause ruin of the kingdom ultimately. He made him
realise all those materialistic things handed over by the eminent and sacred
ancestors. But conceiving no reply he finally persuaded duryodhana to spit out
the root of the grief that made me feel so melancholy.
SECTION 50
Duryodhana’s Jealousy
This section deals with how Duryodhana became jealous after seeing the wealth and prosperity
of the Pandavas.
1.1 Blankets made of wool, of the soft fur of rodents and other
Burroughers, and of the hair of cats all inlaid with threads of
gold.

2.Servants of pandavas
SUMMARY
In this section Duryodhana describes large mass of wealth consisting of
various kinds of tribute presented unto king yudhishthir, however they
are being refused to enter and waiting for permission of king
yudhishthir.
On the other hand king yudhishthir caring servants of the pandavas by
giving them shelter and food.
SECTION - 52
TITLE: - “PERFORMING OF THE RAJASUYA YAJNA”
● The kings had brought excellent and valuable presents for him
SECTION-54
● His sons and alies along with him are deemed to destruction if they don't
stop the Pandavas from prospering.
● Kings should always look after the interest of his own kingdom above
everything.
● He says that any body who causes pain to one is a foe of the person, so
Pandavas are their foes as they have pained him (referring to the insult done by
the four pandavas in the Maya palace).
● A person with the same pursuit is sought to be one's foe and as Pandavas
and Kauravas both are pursuing prosperity of their kingdoms they can't be allies
● He threatens that the earth swallows up a peaceful king, the one who neglects a
growing foe meets with destruction.
SECTION NUMBER: 55
● He calls for Yudhishthira to join him in the game where one with skill
shall vanquish the other with no skill.
● He carries onto describing the betting as his bow, the dice as his arrows,
the marks on them as his bow-string, and the dice-board as his car.
● Duryodhana mentions about Sakuni, a skilled player who is ready to snatch the
prosperity of Yudhishthira through the means of dice when given the permission.
● Dhritarashtra here confesses to being obedient to his brother and will not take
any decision without consulting with him.
● He says two minds doesn’t tend to agree with the same decision and so he
should not wait up for Vidura’s consult.
We now see Dhritarashtra express his concern about the game and that
how it has once started with end in pointed arrows and sharp swords.
2. Duryodhana’s Assurance
● the game of dice was invented in the ancient times and it that there is no
destruction in it and nor there is any striking with weapons.
● He assures that his words are to be trusted upon and a command for speedy
construction of assembly house shall begin.
● Dhritarashtra in concern to this replies that his words doesn’t assure him as such
and asks for them to do what feels agreeable.
● He also warns them about the consequences who are acting upon the words of
Duryodhana.
● Vaisampayana now continues by saying that Dhritarashtra regarded fate to be
the supreme and unavoidable which certainly is not a good enough reason for
king to agree upon
Summary
In the given section, Sakuni is seen challenging Yudhishthira for a game of dice.
Following to this we see Duroyadhana manipulating Dhritarashtra to invite Yudhishthira
for the game but Dhritarashtra makes his statement of not taking any decision without
his brother Vidura.
Duroyadhana tells that Vidura is always engaged in doing good for son of Pandu and
that one shall make his decision on his own because two different minds for one opinion
will cause conflict.
We now see Duroyadhana assuring that the game of dice doesn’t involve any striking
weapons and was invented in the ancient times, thereby it is of no harm.
Convinced to this Vaisampayana orders for a construction of assembly house where the
game shall be played and then Dhritarashtra is seen commanding for Yudhishthira to be
brought to the assembly to play a friendly game of dice.

SECTION : 57
TITLE: Pandavas receiving invitation and heading towards
hastinapore

● Was welcomed by Brahmans.
● On approaching Yudhishthira , was saluted by him.
● Vidura told him about the invitation from the king Dhritarashtra to
Pandavas for a match of dice.
SECTION : 58
TITLE : Beginning to the game of Dicing
1. ENTRY OF PANDAVAS
● Yudhishthira also says that the best of Munis, Devala, instructed the
Pandavas that it was sinful to play deceitfully with a gamester.
● He calls war carried on without crookedness and cunning to be the act
of honest men , and also calls victory in battle the biggest sport and
doesn’t consider gambling a sport.
● Yudhishthira asks Sakuni to not take their wealth with deceit
which they could use for the benefit of the Brahmanas.
● Sakuni calls Yudhishthira’s urgency to call off the game of the dice as
desire of winning which is not a very honest move and also that
winning is the main motive in a competition
● He says that just as the Pandavas are skilled with weapons, he is
skilled in the game of dice. Everyone is interested in playing against
those who are weaker , be it in physical combat or a mental
strategy involving game .
● Sakuni warns Yudhishtra, if he feels that his motives are dishonest he
may desist from playing. Yudhishtra felt triggered and since he was
summoned with respect he couldn’t leave without playing.
● Yudhishtra asks about who his opponent will be , who will be able to
stake equally. To which Duryodhana that he will he will supply gems
and jewels but Sakuni would play for him.
● The play begins.
● He says : when the play begins all the kings who were with
Dhritarashtra took their seats in the assembly.
● Bharata, Bhishma, Drona, kripa and the honourable Vidura with
joyless heart sat behind.
● And those kings who were resembling a lion neck and filled with
great energy took their seats seperately or with a group on the
higher area of a beautiful seat.
● The mansion looked gorgeous with all the members sitting there
looking like a meeting held in the heaven itself.
● They all were knowledgeable and familiar with the Vedas sitting there
with a brave glorious wide eyes and a bright smile indicating joy.
● And O great king, finally the genial match of dice has started.
o And Now Yudhishthira talks about the excellent wealth of the
pearls with a great value that was extracted with a great effort
and care from the ocean by churning it.
o The pearls are extremely beautiful decorated with a pure
gold. Yudhishthira says O king , this pearl is my stake.
o And then he asks to Duryodhana, what is your stake? O great king,
the wealth with which you wish to play with me?
o Duryodhana says : I have many jewels and much wealth. But, I am
not proud of it. Now, throw the dice and we will see who is the
winner.
▪ And then Vaisampayana continues :
o Sakuni well-skilled at dice took up the dice and casting
them said to Yudhishthira, "Lo, I have won!”
SUMMARY
When the gambling match started. The hall was filled with all the
knowledgeable, powerful royal kings. Bhishma, Bharata, Drona, kripa and
Vidura took their seats but, they were not happy about the idea of playing
a gambling match. Dhritarashtra also took his seat with other members.
They all were thrilled, anxious and anticipated for the game to be started.
The Yudhishthira put a stake on an excellent wealth of pearls and
Duryodhana put stake on many jewels. Then, Sakuni took up the dice and
threw them in the air and said with an excitement “look, I have won!”
SECTION : 61
TITLE: Vidura puts his points in front of Dhritarashtra
3)Unworthy princes:
•Andhakas, Yadavas and Bhojas united to kill Kansa
•Command Arjuna to kill Suyodhana and let Kurus be happy
Summary: Vidura voiced out his thoughts to the king which may not be
appreciated by him. Duryodhana’s cry after his birth prophesied him to be
the destructor of the Bharata race. He is maddened with dice play and does
not see the consequence of his acts like the honey collector in the
mountains. King should command Arjun to kill Suyodhana and let Kurus be
happy. A sacrifice must be made for the good of a few. A foolish king blinded
by profit destroyed his present and future gains. Dhritarashtra should
nurture the Pandavas with affection. Nobody is capable enough to fight
them. The king should not bring himself and his sons in the hands of death.
SECTION : 62
TITLE: Gambling brings disunion
▪ When the Pandavas will gamble with wrath, who will provide them
refuge.
1. Duryodhana’s opinion
● Duryodhana feels Vidura is always boasting of the fame of their
enemies, deprecating his sons.
● Duryodhana viciously rebukes Vidura, calling him ungrateful.
● He called him a serpent for betraying his own master.
● He criticised Vidura for not taking their side and joining hands with
their enemy.
● He does not want Vidura to meddle with other’s affairs.
● He feels that God is the ultimate controller of his fate, and everything
is going to happen according to him.
● Vidura according to him has become an enemy who seeks to control
others by force.
● He advised him in a friendly spirit to immediately extinguish the fire he
has set.
● One should not give shelter to people who betray and who are evil
minded.
● He feels that Draupadi is unchaste whoever she is well treated by his
husbands.
2. Vidura’s reciprocation
● Vidura was the only one who protested the humiliation of Draupadi in
the Kaurva court.
● Vidura reciprocates by saying that Duryodhana considers himself as
mature and intellectual and considers him as a child who is immature.
● He feels if you accept someone as friend one should be okay finding
fault in him.
● An evil man can never be brought to the path of righteousness like an
unchaste wife in the house of a respected person.
● Whether you disagree or agree it is my duty to tell you what he
necessarily wants the king to come to his senses and realise the fact
he always wanted good for the king and his kids.
SECTION : 65
● Sakuni, who played for Duryodhana, had won the beautiful Draupadi
by unfair means at the game of dice.
● Vidura warns Duryodhana not to use such harsh words for Krishna
(Draupadi). He calls Duryodhana a deer who is attempting to provoke
tigers (Pandavas). The sons of Kunti should not be provoked, else he
would land in the region of Yama (death).
● He gives the example of a goat who once swallowed a hook and was
pierced by it. So the hunter placed its head on the ground and tore it's
throat to draw it out. Similar things might happen to Kurus if they
swallow the wealth of Pandavas.
5. VIDURA REPENTS
● Vidura says it's a matter of pity that Duryodhana does not know
dishonesty is one of the frightful doors of hell. Alas! Many of the Kurus
with Dussasana (Duryodhana's brother) alongside have followed
Duryodhana on this path of dishonesty.
● Since Duryodhana's temptation is on the increase and he is bent on
not taking the counsel of Vidura, he will be the cause of destruction of
the Kuru race.
SUMMARY :-
Duryodhana, in his blind pride, asks Draupadi to be brought before the court
and says she should now work and stay as his other serving women. Vidura
intervenes and warns him not to provoke the mighty Pandavas, and not to
engage in sinful acts because it might result in the destruction of the Kuru
race. He says that Draupadi remains free because Yudhishthira put her at
stake after losing himself, so at that time he was the master of no one. He
advises Duryodhana not to speak harsh words for the sons and daughter-in-
law of Pandu. But he does not listen to him, as he has the support of
Dussasana and many other Kauravas. Therefore, we see Vidura repenting
because he knew the fearful consequences of Duryodhana's greed.
SECTION : 66
TITLE: Summoning of Draupadi to the Assembly
Summary:
As instructed, the Pratikamin goes to Draupadi and informs her of the
situation. Shocked and angry, Draupadi asks Pratikamin to go back to the
assembly and ask if she was staked first or Yudhishthira. In the assemble,
however, Duryodhan insists she come and ask her questions herself. This
back and forth happens a couple of times before Dussasana storms off to
drag Draupadi by himself. Helpless, Draupadi pleads to Dussasana telling
him how she’s menstruating and attired in only one piece of clothing. He
coldly dismisses all her pleas. With her hair deshelled and clothes loosened,
a helpless Draupadi is humiliated in front of the assembly mercilessly. She
appeals to the members, questions their morality, insists it wasn’t
Yudhishthira’s right to put her at stake. However, Dussasana remains
merciless.
SECTION : 67
4. The miracle
● Dushasana begins to act as per Karna’s order and advice.
He forcibly seizes Draupadi’s attire and tries to take it off
her body.
● At that very moment, poor Draupadi begins to cry for help,
remembering Krishna, she calls out his various names
aloud in the assembly. Hari, Govinda, Lord of Vrindavana
and the soul of the universe. She desperately asks for his
help, stating her humiliation in the hands of Kauravas.
● Krishna, who heard the words of the poor woman, was
deeply moved. Hence, he immediately reached the
assembly barefoot, unseen, and covered her with clothes
uncountable.
● As soon as the evil Dushasana became successful in
removing one attire, another one appeared, covering her
body. and the cycle of removing and appearing of various
attires continued. This left Dushasana extremely exhausted
and ashamed.
● The extraordinary miraculous scene impressed everyone in
the assembly, and they all applauded for Draupadi.
5. Bheema’s oath
● Bheema becomes absolutely infuriated upon witnessing
Draupadi in that miserable state.
● He very loudly took the oath to tear open the breast of the
abominable Dushasana in the battlefield and drink his life
blood in order to avenge for the humiliation that Draupadi
suffered.
Summary
Krishna showed compassion to Draupadi by answering her call for help.
Bheema shows courage as he stands by Draupadi’s side. Dushasana
becomes target of Bheema’s anger due to his actions. Draupadi’s faith
saves her. Vikarna gains respect from many for his mature take on
Draupadi’s treatment but his opinion is dismissed by the unsatisfied Karna.

3. VIDURA'S INTERVENTION :
• Let all Kauravas judge whose master he could be after Addresses the nobles in
assembly as “Pratipa's race"
• Foretells destruction of dynasty- “know ye for certain that this great calamity ,
threatened to overtake Bharatas hath been sent by destiny itself”
• Refutes the logics of Kauravas – “ if , however a person had staked anything at a
time when he himself is incapable of holding wealth, to win its like obtaining
wealth in a dream.”
• Duryodana put forwards condition – “ let other pandavas say
Yudhisthira is not their master and yajnaseni will then be freed."
• Arjuna complies with Vidura, leaves answer open-ended – “ but having lost himself
(Yudhisthira).”
4. DHRITARASHTRA ALARMED :
• Bad omens occur- cry of jackal, braying asses, terrible bird sounds
• Bhishma , Drona & Gautama alarmed – “all three loudly cried- swasthi ! swasthi !”
• Vidura & Gandhari warn Dhritarashtra
• Dhritarashtra chastises Duryodhana
5. SUPERFICIAL REDEMPTION :
SUMMARY
The section starts in the pretext of question asked by Draupadi . Karna insults Bhishma's
opinions and says that he regards women as always dependent on her husband . He
further insults pandavas calling them slaves and asks Draupadi to reconsider the
proposal of marrying any of the sons of Dhritarashtra. Duryodhana further shows the
audacity by shamelessly uncovering his left thigh in front of chaste Draupadi. Bhima
takes the terrible vow to break that same leg of Kuru Prince in the battlefield.
Vidura intervenes to warn the assembly and counters Duryodhana by stating that
Draupadi wasn't rightful property of Yudhisthira who staked her when he himself was a
slave. However Vidura's words of concern fall in deaf ears as Duryodhana demands
answers from pandavas. Several bad omens appear as Arjuna replies to Duryodhana.
Alarmed, the king looped on to last moment damage minimization by asking Draupadi
for boons. Draupadi frees the pandavas in the two boonsand refuses the third one
stating that the prowess of her husbands will automatically enable them to regain
whatever was lost in the deceitful gambling match.
SECTION-71
TITLE:DRAUPADI UNLEASHED
1.KARNA SAYS:-
• He never heard of any act as of Draupadi performed by
any other women in the world for beauty.
• According to Karna Draupadi was already a shameless
women for having five husbands so it wouldn’t be a sin and
big deal for her getting naked in front of all.
2.BHIMASENA TO ARjUNA:
• Bhimasena in great sorrow said to Arjuna that there are
three lights that reside in every person namely offspring,
acts and learning and from these three have sprung
creation.
• When there life becomes extinct and body impure and and is
cast off by relatives these three become of service to
everyone but the light in us is already dimmed because of
this henious act of insult to our wife.
• At last, Bheem asks Arjuna that how can a son born from our
insulted wife will be servicable for us?
SUMMARY:
The section starts with Karna saying that Draupadi can’t be a honourable women as she
has relationships with five men! And such women are called harlots! Whether such
women are clothed or not makes absolutely no difference. He also said that when the
sons of Pritha and the sons of Dhritarashtra were raging in anger, Draupadi brought
solace. Draupadi saved the Pandavas who were going to be slaves forever by asking for
their freedom in her boons. The Pandavas were immersed and drowning Panchali
became their boat and brought them safely ashore. Vaisampayana also believed that
the Pandavas were indeed saved by Draupadi. Bhima says to Arjun that there are three
lights that reside in every person namely offspring, acts and learning and have sprung
creation from these when life becomes extinct and body becomes impure and is
discarded by everyone these three become servicable for everyone but the light in us is
dimmed already because of this henious act to our wife, he also asks Arjuna that how a
son born from our insulted wife will be servicable for us? Arjun says to Bhima that
superior persons never prate about harsh words uttered by inferior men, they earn
respect for themselves and never retaliate, they only remember the good deeds of
their enemies. Bhima asks king Dhritarashtra that shall he kill all his enemies and rule
this world without a rival? He was looking like a lion in the midst of a herd of inferior
animals with his angry glances. Arjuna tried to pacify him with his appealing looks.
Bhima was burning with the fire of his wrath, fire was issuing out of his ears and other
senses, his face had become terrible and brows were furrowed like of Yama at the
time of universal destruction. Yudhishthira forbaded him, embraced him and told him
to stay in silent and peace. And after pacifying his brother he approached his uncle
Dhritarashtra with hands joined in entreaty.

and it’s not okay for her to go with them in exile. Yudhishthira agreed as Vidura is wise
and is highly respected by him. He adds that The Pandavas are attached to one another

SECTION -80
TITLE: AFTER PANDVAS’ EXILE
1.DHRITARASHTRA IN ANXIETY:
After effects :
⮚ Terrible thunderstorm
3.DHRITARASHTRA’S CONCLUSION :
SUMMARY:
Dhritarashtra,even after sending the Pandavas to exile,is struck by deep anxiety.
Sanjaya asks for the reason for which he explains his concerns. He is deeply worried
about the reactions of Pandavas that is going to take place once they return from the
exile. Sanjaya explains that it is the wicked and shameless act of Dhritarashtra’s son
Duryodhana in insulting the wed wife of Pandavas, Draupadi that makes up the reason
for that. The after effects were terrific. So Dhritarashta was of the conclusion that it will
be better for them to keep peace with the Pandavas than humility, because after all, the
sons of Pandu were stronger than the Kurus.
