Was Abhimanyu killed Unfairly?

By Eren Yeager -

 Death Of Abhimanyu

MOST FAIR DEATH OF ABHIMANYU A/C TO BORI CE(Considered as the most Authentic Mahabharata)

Let's see How Abhimanyu himself rushed towards Son of Dushasana and the mace combat of Abhimanyu vs Durmsena held. Dussasana’s son never wanted to kill Abhimanyu so he never attacked Abhimanyu but Abhimanyu being egoistic attacked his brother and poor son of Dussasana showed his wrath that consumed Abhimanyu along with his weapon

Quotes from BORI CE

Drona Parva, chapter – 48

Translation by Bibek Deboroy :

“He then advanced against the chariot of Duhshasana’s son and used the club to slay his horses. O venerable one! At this, Duhshasana’s son was enraged and raised his club. Asking Subhadra’s son to wait, he attacked him. Those two brave brothers wished to kill each other and raised their clubs against each other. They struck, like the destroyer Tryambaka in earlier times. Having struck each other with the ends of their clubs, they both fell down on the ground. In the midst of that battle, those two scorchers of enemies were like Indra’s standards that had been uprooted. The ratha who was Duhshasana’s son, the extender of the deeds of the Kuru lineage, arose first and struck Subhadra’s son on the head with the club, as he was about to get up. Because of exhaustion and because of the great force of the club, Subhadra’s son, the destroyer of enemy heroes, lost his senses and fell down on the ground, unconscious.

Conclusion: Here it was Abhimanyu who rushed towards the son of Dushashana, they fought with Mace and both of them fell unconscious and regained their sense. But Abhimanyu was not strong like the son of Dussasana so slow Abhimanyu took too much time to stand up but the son of Dussasana was quicker hence he stood up and crushed Abhimanyu under his mace who was trying to stand up after getting hit by the son of Dussasana. It was a one to one mace combat, and Son of Dushashana crushed Abhimanyu under his heavy mace and Abhimanyu collapsed fairly.

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...
