History The origin of Arjuna Mahabaratha

In Mahabharata it is said that King Pandu could not continue his descent because it was condemned by a rishi. Kunti-his first wife-received the grace from Resi Durwasa so as to be able to summon the god according to his wishes, and also to gain the grace from the god he called.


Pandu and Kunti used the grace to summon Dewa Yama (Dharmaraja; Yamadipati), Bayu (Maruta), and Indra (Sakra) who then gave them three sons. Arjuna was the third son, born of Indra, the leader of the Gods. He was born on the slopes of Himawan mountain, at a place called Satsringa on the day when North Phalguna star looked at zenith.

YOUNG ARJUNA 

Arjuna was educated along with his other brothers (the Pandavas and the Kauravas) by Drona. His skill in the science of archery has appeared since childhood. At a young age he earned the title of Maharathi or "the leading knight". In a test, Drona puts a wooden bird on a tree, then tells his students one by one to shoot the bird, then asks what they've seen.

Many disciples answered that they saw trees, branches, twigs, and everything close to the bird, including the bird itself. When it was Arjuna's turn to take aim, Drona asked what he saw. Arjuna replied that he only saw birds, did not see anything else. It dragged him and convinced him that Arjuna was smart.

One day, while Drona was bathing in the Ganges, a crocodile came bite. Drona can free himself easily, but because he wants to test the courage of his students he shouts for help. Among his students, only Arjuna came to help. With his arrow, he kills the crocodile that bites his teacher. For the devotion of Arjuna, Drona gave an astra named Brahmasirsa.

Drona also taught Arjuna how to call and attract the astra. According to Mahabharata, Brahmasirsa can only be addressed to gods, giants, evil demons, and evil beings who do evil, so that its effects are harmless.

GET DROPADI

In Adiparwa it is told that Duryodana-one of the Kauravas-suggested that Pandavas and his mother (Kunti) vacation in a house outside the kingdom. Indeed Duryodana has prepared the house to burn easily, because he hates the Pandavas, especially Bima. Widura, the Pandavas' and Korawa's cautious uncle requested that the Pandavas be careful and prepare for ways to deal with the ugly possibilities that might occur.

When the Pandavas were staying, Purocana, Duryodana's army burned the house. The Pandavas and their mothers escaped through the tunnel that had been dug before. They flee into the middle of the forest and ride in the homes of local people. Once upon a time, a group of brahmins gathered in the place where the Pandavas fled. They are talking about a contest to be held in the Kingdom of Panchala.

The Pandavas come to the place of the contest in disguise as brahmins. King Drupada of Panchala held a competition to get Draupadi, his daughter. A wooden fish is placed on the dome of the hall, and beneath it is a pond that reflects the shadow of the fish above. The rule states that whoever manages to shoot the fish by just looking at his reflection in the pond, then he is entitled to Draupadi.

Various knights tried to do it, but to no avail. When Karna, who was present at the time, took part in the attempt, she managed to shoot the fish well. But he was rejected by Draupadi on the grounds Karna was born in a low caste. Arjuna and his other brother disguised themselves as Brahmins, joining the competition. Arjuna managed to shoot the fish on target by just looking at the reflection of her reflection in the pond, and she deserved to get Draupadi. When the Pandavas came home with Draupadi, they claimed to have brought alms.

Kunti-mother of the Pandavas-who was busy, told them to share evenly what they had got. In accordance with what Kunti said, the Pandavas agreed to divide Draupadi as their wife. They also promised not to disturb Draupadi while being in the room together with one of the Pandavas. The punishment of a disturbing act is disposal for one year.

ARJUNA HANDLING 

In the book Wanaparwa narrated the events after the Pandavas-led by Yudhisthira-lost playing dice against the Kauravas led by Duryodana. In accordance with the provisions of the game, the Pandavas and Draupadi exiled themselves to the forest (Wana in Sanskrit).

The opportunity is used by Arjuna to meditate in order to gain supernatural powers in the battle against his cousins. Arjuna chose an ascetic location on Mount Indrakila. In his efforts, he was tested by seven angels led by Supraba, but Arjuna's determination was able to resist the temptations given by the angels. The angry angels return to the heaven, and report their failure to Indra. Indra gets off at Arjuna's ascetic place while posing as a priest.

He asks the purpose of Arjuna doing tapa on Mount Indrakila. Arjuna replies that he is ascetic in order to gain strength to reduce the suffering of the people, and to conquer his enemies, especially the Kauravas who have always been evil against the Pandavas. After hearing the explanation from Arjuna, Indra showed his true form. He gave a gift to Arjuna in the form of a magic weapon. After receiving the grace from Lord Indra, Arjuna strengthened his tapa in the presence of Lord Shiva.

Shiva who was impressed with Arjuna tapa then sent a large boar. He plowed the mountain Indrakila to vibrate. This made Arjuna awake from his tapanya. Because he saw a wild boar disturbing the tapanya, he immediately released his arrow to kill the pig. At the same time, Shiva came and disguised as a hunter, also releasing arrows towards the wild boar that was drowned by Arjuna. Because of the god's supernatural powers, the two arrows embedded in the boar's body became one.

A great quarrel between Arjuna and Shiva is disguised as a hunter. They both claimed to have killed a wild boar, but only one arrow stuck, not two. Therefore, Arjuna thinks that the hunter has claimed something that is actually the right of Arjuna. After a fight, they both fight. When Arjuna addressed his assault on the hunter, the man suddenly disappeared and revealed his original form as Shiva. Arjuna apologizes for having dared to challenge. Shiva was not angry at Arjuna, quite the contrary he was amazed.

Upon his courage, Lord Shiva gave the gift of a magic arrow named pasupati. After receiving the weapon pasupati, Arjuna was picked up by the residents of heaven to the residence Indra, king of the gods. There Arjuna spent a few years. There also Arjuna met with Urwasi nymphs. Because Arjuna does not want to marry Urwasi nymphs, Urwasi condemns Arjuna to become a sissy (Arjuna's role as a sissy is described as in Wirataparwa's book).

The curse was used by Arjuna as the Pandavas completed their exile in the forest. After completing the exile, Pandawa and Draupadi take refuge in the kingdom of Wirata. In accordance with the legitimate agreement-as a result of defeat while playing dice-then the Pandavas and Draupadi have to live under cover for a year. Therefore, the Pandavas and Draupadi must conceal their true identity and live as others. There Arjuna disguised himself as a sissy dance teacher, under the pseudonym Brihanala.

Nevertheless, Arjuna had succeeded in assisting Wirata's royal crown prince, the Northern prince, by dispelling the enemy who was about to invade the kingdom of Wirata.

BEFORE THE BARATAYUDA WAR

 After undergoing 13 years of disposal and a year-long masquerade, the Pandavas wish to regain their kingdom. But their right was denied by Duryodana, even he challenged to fight. For the sake of his kingdom, the Pandavas agreed to wage war. Before the war, Krishna had a peace mission, but failed. Finally Kresna agreed to engage in war, but with no weapons.

He wants one party to choose his army, while the other chooses him as an advisor. Arjuna representing Pandavas prefer the presence of Krishna as a counselor, while Duryodana who represents Kauravas prefer Krishna forces. Arjuna accepts Bhagawadgita In Mahabharata, the role of Krishna as the coachman means a guide or guide, that is to guide Arjuna through all his heart and to show the way of truth to Arjuna.

The truth doctrine that Krishna describes to Arjuna is called Bhagawadgita. It started shortly before the war in Kurukshetra began. As Arjuna inspects his troops, he is beset by an inner turmoil when he sees his grandfather, his great teacher, cousins, playmates, brother-in-law and other relatives gathering in Kurukshetra for a massacre. Arjuna became unwilling to kill them all. Afflicted by an inner problem, between what is right and what is wrong, Arjuna is determined to resign from the battle.

Kresna is kind, after seeing friends and relatives in front of me, with the spirit to fight like that, I feel my limbs tremble and my mouth feels dry ... (Bhagavadgita, I: 28) We will be overwhelmed if we kill such an attacker. Therefore, it is inappropriate to kill the sons of Drestarastra and our friends. O Krishna, Dewi Laksmi's husband, what is the advantage for us, and how can we be happy with killing our own relatives? (Bhagavadgita, I: 36)

To overcome Arjuna's hesitation, Krishna elaborated the teachings of truth so that all doubts in Arjuna's heart vanished. Krishna explained what Arjuna should do as his duty on the battlefield. In addition, Krishna shows his true form to Arjuna. The truth doctrine described by Krishna is known as Bhagawadgita. The Bhagavadgita Book, which is actually a part of Bhismaparwa, becomes a well-known book in Hinduism, as it is considered the essence of the Vedic teachings.

THE BARATAYUDA WAR 

In the battle of Kurukshetra, or Bharatayuddha, Arjuna fought with the warriors of the Kauravas, and not infrequently he killed them, including the great commander of the Kaurava party, Bisma. At the beginning of the battle, Arjuna is still overshadowed by the love of Bisma so that he is still reluctant to kill him. It made Kresna angry over and over again, and Arjuna promised that one day he would end Bisma's life. At the battle on the tenth day, Arjuna manages to kill Bisma, and the effort is made with the help of Srikandi.

After Abhimanyu's son Arjuna died on the thirteenth day, Arjuna fought with Jayadrata to avenge his son's death. The battle between Arjuna and Jayadrata ended at dusk, with the help of Krishna. At the battle of the seventeenth day, Arjuna was involved in a fierce duel against Karna.

When Karna's arrow shot toward Arjuna's head, Krishna pressed the Arjuna train into the ground with the power of saturation so that Karna's arrow missed inches from Arjuna's head. When Arjuna attacks Karna again, Karna's train plunges into a hole (because of a curse). Karna descended to lift back her fallen carriage. Salya, his charioteer, refuses to help him.

Because he adheres to the ethics of war, Arjuna stops his offensive when the Karna train has not been removed. It was then that Krishna reminded Arjuna of the death of Abhimanyu, who was killed in a state without weapons and no trains. Stricken by the inner turmoil, Arjuna releases a deadly Rudra arrow to Karna's head. The weapon bears Karna's head.
