Karna V/s Bhima

By Eren Yeager -

 Karna V/s Bhima

ITS TIME TO END CHAPTER OF BHIMA FOREVER, GIGANTIC BHIMA WAS NO MATCH FOR KARNA,KARNA DEFEATED BHIMA 6 TIMES,4TIMES ON 17TH DAY, ONCE ON 15TH DAY & ONCE ON 14TH DAY,OUT OF 6 DEFEATS, 5 TIMES BHIMA FLED FROM BATTLE ONCE SPARED BY KARNA,THIS HAPPENED THOUGH KARNA WAS MILD TOWARDS BHIMA AS PER WORDS GIVEN TO KUNTI!


◆ NOTICEABLE FACTS -

a) Karna fought with Bhima lightly because of promise given to Kunti

b) Karna was under illusion of Lord Krishna in entire kurukshetra war

c) Biased reporting of Sanjaya

1ST TIME >>>>>

(14TH DAY) - BHIMA RAN AWAY FROM KARNA & HIDE UNDER DEATH BODY OF AN ELEPHANT TO SAVE HIS LIFE

(obliged to turn back) pursued by Karna.
Beholding the elephants, huge as hills that had been slain by Arjuna, lying (near), unarmed Bhimasena entered into their midst, for impeding the progress of Karna's car. Approaching that multitude of elephants and getting into the midst of that fastness which was inaccessible to a car, the son of Pandu, #desirous_of_saving_his_life, refrained from striking the son of Radha. Desirous of shelter, that subjugator of hostile cities viz., the son of Pritha, uplifting an elephant that had been slain by Dhananjaya with his shafts, waited there, like #Hanumat_uplifting_the_peak_of_Gandhamadana. 1 Karna, however, with his shafts, cut off that elephant held by Bhima.

( यहाॅ पे भिम भैया कर्ण को पिठ दिखाकर भाग गये और अपनी जान बचाने के लिए यहा वहाॅ भागने लगे । फिर एक मरे हुए हाथी को उठाकर उसके निचे छिप गये । )

KARNA SPARED LIFE OF BHIMA FOLLOWING WORDS OF KUNTI

The Suta's son, however, with his sharp shafts, repeatedly caused the distressed Bhima, to lose the sense. But Karna, recollecting the words of Kunti, took not the life of the unarmed Bhima.

2ND TIME >>>>>

(17TH DAY) - KARNA AGAIN MADE BHIMA TO FLEE FROM BATTLEFIELD

Then Karna, O king, filled with rage and the desire to retaliate, struck Bhima with five and twenty shafts, and then with many more. With one arrow he then cut off Bhimasena's standard, and with another broad-headed arrow he despatched Bhima's driver to the presence of Yama. Next quickly cutting off the bow of Pandu's son with another winged arrow, Karna deprived Bhima of terrible feats of his car. Deprived of his car, O chief of Bharata's race, the mighty-armed Bhima, who resembled the Wind-god (in prowess) took up a mace and jumped down from his excellent vehicle. Indeed, jumping down from his car with great fury, Bhima began to slay thy troops, O king, like the wind destroying the clouds of autumn

( यहाॅ पे कर्ण ने भिम के शस्ञ और रथ तोड दिये । पता नही क्यु पर भिम ने रथ से छलांग लगाई और कौरव सेना मे भाग गये । )

3TH TIME >>>>>

(17TH DAY) - BHIMA WAS SUPPORTED BY ARMY & STILL KARNA CAUSED BHIMA TO RAN AWAY FROM BATTLE

"Sanjaya said, 'Meanwhile Vikartana himself, resisting Bhimasena supported by the Pancalas and the Cedis and the Kaikayas, covered him with many arrows. In the very sight of Bhimasena, Karna, slew in that battle many mighty car-warriors among the Cedis, the the Karushas, and the Srinjayas. Then Bhimasena, #avoiding_Karna, that best of car-warriors, proceeded against the Kaurava troops like a blazing fire

http://www.sacred-texts.com/hin/m08/m08056.htm

( भिम चेदी और पांचाल को लेकर कर्ण के साथ लड रहा था । कर्ण ने सबको भिम के ऑखो के सामने मार डाला । फिर पता नही क्या सुझी भिम को कर्ण को छोडके पलायन किया । )

4TH TIME >>>>>

(15TH DAY) - AS USUAL KARNA BROKE CHARIOT OF BHIMA - BHIMA FLED ON CHARIOT OF NAKULA - INSTEAD OF TO CONTINUE FIGHT, BHIMA FLED ALONG WITH NAKULA

The latter then, viz., the son of Radha, taking up another invincible and gold-decked bow, shot a number of shafts, and quickly slew Bhima's steeds of the hue of bears, and then his two drivers. When his car was thus injured, Bhima, that chastiser of foes, quickly jumped into the car of Nakula like a lion jumping down upon a mountain summit.'

http://www.sacred-texts.com/hin/m07/m07185.htm

(Here Karna defeated Bhima. Bhima mounted on Nakula's chariot and didn't resume the fight. He fled with nakula. So it was a defeat)

5TH TIME >>>>

(17TH DAY) - BHIMA ATTACKED ON KARNA ALONG WITH 11 MAHARATHI STILL DEFEATED & FLED FROM BATTLE

Indeed, Shikhandi, and #Bhima, and Dhrishtadyumna, the son of Prishata, and Nakula, and Sahadeva, and the (five) sons of Draupadi, and Satyaki, surrounded the son of Radha, pouring showers of arrows upon him, from desire of despatching him to the other world...........Indeed, with his straight shafts casting those heroes to #turn_back_from_the_fight, the heroic Karna began to slay the Pancalas and many mighty car-warriors among the Cedis.

http://sacred-texts.com/hin/m08/m08078.htm

6TH TIME >>>>>

(17TH DAY) - BHIMA AGAIN ATTACKED ON KARNA ALONG WITH 13 MAHARATHI & AGAIN SUFFERED A CLEAR DEFEAT BY KARNA

Then Dhristadyumna pierced Karna with ten arrows, and the sons of Draupadi pierced him with three and seventy, and Yuyudhana with seven. And #Bhimasena pierced him with four and sixty arrows, and Sahadeva with seven. And Nakula pierced him with thirty arrows, and Satanika with seven. And the heroic Shikhandi pierced him with ten and king Yudhishthira with a hundred.............. His assailants then gave him a way (through which he passed out). Having #crushed_those_might_bowmen with showers of arrows, the son of Radha, that crusher of foes, then penetrated, #unresisted, into the midst of the division commanded by the Pandava king.

http://sacred-texts.com/hin/m08/m08048.htm

( Karna crushed 13 Pandava maharathi including Bhima)

---------------------------------------------------------------------

THESE ARE ONLY CLEAR DEFEATS OF BHIMA BY KARNA ... OTHER THAN THIS KARNA CHEAKED BHIMA 4 MORE TIMES THOUGH BHIMA ATTACKED ALONG WITH MORE THAN 10 MAHARATHI..!!
 
Conclusion:
RECORD OF BHIMA vs KARN IN KURUSHETRA

[NOTE] - Karna defeated Bhima 8 times ( 6 times on 17th day + Once on 14th night + once on 15th day). This 8 are clear defeats of Bhima where Bhima clearly seen as running away from Karna after defeat in face to face duel

No. Of Time Bhima Defeated Karna = 0
No. Of Time Karna Defeated Bhima = 8
No. Of Time Bhima escaped From Karna = 6
No. Of Time Bhima Spared By Karna = 1

Was Karna a disciple of Drona or Parashurama or Both?

By Eren Yeager -
  Parashuram Shishya Karn  There is some contradictory and confusing concepts regarding Karna's education and teachers. TV serials and films made on Mahabharata and Karna generally shows that Drona had refused to teach Karna as Karna was known to be a lower-caste person, and subsequently Karna had gone to Lord Parashurama for learning Warcraft. But in reality, matters are not as simple as they appear. According to the Mahabharata of Krishna-Dwaipayana Vyasa translated by Kisari Mohan Ganguli (K.M. Ganguli or most commonly known as KMG), Karna was at first a disciple of Drona and Kripa (most commonly known as Kripacharya), and subsequently he became a disciple of Lord Parashurama. _____ We must know about one fact. Kripa was the first teacher of the Kauravas and the Pandavas. Then when Drona came to Hastinapura, he was appointed the teacher of the Kauravas and the Pandavas, in order to teach them about the superior methods of warfare. Nonetheless, Kripa continued t...
