Draupadi Swayamvar's reality (Was Karna rejected from Draupadi Swayamvara?)

MISCONCEPTION ABOUT DRAPADI SWAYAMVARA CONTEST (BORI CE)

Now a days there is a bit of Misconception that Karna Failed' at Draupadi Swayamvar. It's a huge lie and propaganda being spread by Arjuna fans . Let me prove from BORI CE that Karna never participated.

■ MISCONCEPTION-1 : LORD KRISHNA FAILED TO STRING BOW IN DRAUPADI SWAYAMVAR

Adi Parv, Section-177, Verse-16

BORI CE –

सङ्कर्षणो वासुदेवो रौक्मिणेयश्च वीर्यवान् |

साम्बश्च चारुदेष्णश्च सारणोऽथ गदस्तथा ||१६||

एते चान्ये च बहवो नानाजनपदेश्वराः |

त्वदर्थमागता भद्रे क्षत्रियाः प्रथिता भुवि ||२१||

एते वेत्स्यन्ति विक्रान्तास्त्वदर्थं लक्ष्यमुत्तमम् |

विध्येत य इमं लक्ष्यं वरयेथाः शुभेऽद्य तम् ||२२||

B.Debroy Translation -

VASUDEVA, Rukmini’s brave son Samba, Charudeshna, Sarana, GADA, Akrura, Satyaki, the immensely powerful Uddhava, Hridika’s son Kritavarma, Prithu, Viprithu, Viduratha, Kanka, Samika, Saramejaya, the brave Vatapati, Jhilli, Pindaraka, the brave Ushinara, all famous as descended from the Vrishni lineage; Bhagiratha, Brihatkshetra, Jayadratha, the king of Sindhu, Brihadratha, Bahlika, the maharatha Shrutayu, Uluka, King Kaitava, Chitrangada, Subhangada, the patient king of Vatsa, the king of Kosala. ‘“O fortunate one! These and many other kings of many regions, famous on earth, have ‘“O fortunate one! These and many other kings of many regions, famous on earth, have come here for you. These brave ones will try to shoot the excellent target for your hand. O beautiful one! You will choose as a husband the one who hits it.”’

EXPOSING –

1) According to Prince Dhristdyumn, Vasudeva Krishna, Balrama (known as gada), Sambha, Satyaki and other vrishni warriors come to win hand of draupadi

2) This was just assumption of Dhristdyumn that Vasudeva Krishna might participate in archery contest to win hand of Draupadi

3) To be frank, assumption of Dhristdyumn failed in reality and no vrishni warrior participate in contest so failure of Lord Krishna is out of context

4) We already witnessed failure of many false assumptions which failed in real upcoming events of future because only god can predict future not human

• Some demons confessed before Duryodhana that souls of demons will enters the bodies of Karna, Bhishma and Drona. Irony is that demons never entered bodies of these warriors in upcoming future events. 

• Ghatotkach too admitted that he will kill karna in battle and his assumption failed in upcoming event of future. He failed to kill karna and himself got killed by Karna

5) In same way, assumption of Dhristdyumn became false in future and Krishna did not participate in contest

RESULT –

According to BORI CE, Lord Krishna did not participate in swayamvara contest so failure is out of context

■ MISCONCEPTION-2 : SURYA’S SON KARNA FAILED TO STRING BOW IN DRAUPADI SWAYAMVAR

■  PART-1 : CORRECT WORD TO WORD TRANSLATION OF SANSKRIT VERSE FROM BORI CE

BORI CE (Adi Parv, Section-179, Verse-4) -

यत्कर्णशल्यप्रमुखैः पार्थिवैर्लोकविश्रुतैः |

नानतं बलवद्भिर्हि धनुर्वेदपरायणैः ||४||

WORD TO WORD SANSKRIT TRANSLATION -

यत - Such

कर - The task (stringing bow)

न - To Perform

शल्य - Shalya

प्रमुखै - Celebrated

पार्थिवै - Kshtriyas

र्लोकविश्रुतै - Famous in the world

नानतं - Could not

बल - Strength

वद्भिर्हि - Great

धनुर्वेदपरायणै - Well versed in dhanurveda

Correct Meaning -

******************

World famous Celebrated Kshtriyas like Shalya enduced with great strength and well versed in Dhanurveda could not (perform the task)

EXPLAINATION -

 Sanskrit word to word translation of this verse-4 doesnt mentioned process of stringing bow. The sanskrit word for stringing bow is missing from sanskrit verse. So we can safely conclude that the word 'यत्कर्ण = To perform the task'.  The verse mentioned that shalya could not perform unknown task and nowhere written that task was to string bow

■ PART-2 : REVIEW BY SCHOLARS AND THEIR TRANSLATIONS

Let's be honest, no matter how much justification we give people would still believe the actual Scholars so let's read the lines as per their translation.

1. SCHOLAR B. DEBROY  (No 1 Sanskrit Scholar)

Translation (Primary Source) -

If KSHTRIYAS LIKE KARNA and Shalya, who are famous in the world, have great strength and are well versed in DhanurVeda, could not string the bow, how can this weakling Brahmana, with no knowledge of weapons, succeed?

पार्थिवै = Kshtriyas,  यत्कर्ण=Such as karna

EXPLAINATION –

According to B.Debroy translation of BORI CE, Kshtriya Karna failed to string bow in draupadi swayamvara contest in cross reference. This is a big mismatch in the epic just like above paragraph that indicates lord Krishna himself failed in Swayamvara. It's also interesting to note that only Karna and Shalya's names are taken, neither was Karna a Kshatriya nor was Shalya world famous or renowned for his prowess. There were greater warriors present. The only link between these two warriors is later they would play an important role at Kurukshetra, more prominent than any other kshatriyas present there. It clearly was a glorification statement for Arjuna. Also another point is Karna was never really called Karna until he donated his Kavach Kundal so why would a random Brahmin' call him Karn?

Also if we take the word Kshatriya literally then

there are total 5 Karna in mahabharta (refer our guru dakshina war thread for detail)

• Two sons of Gandhari (Kshtriyas)

• Yuyutsu (Kshtriyas)

• Demon king Karna-yest (Kshtriyas)

• Surya’s son Karna (Suta)

According to most authentic translation of BORI CE by B.Debroy, the karna who failed to string bow was suppose be kshtriya by cast means either son of gandhari or yuyutsu hence failure of Vrisha Karna of suta cast is out of context

EXPOSING EXCUSES–

_______________________________________________

1) B.Debroy is fool and didn’t know meaning of पार्थिवै  so he translated=पार्थिवै  as Kshtriyas

Exposing  –

B. Debroy has translated verse correctly as there are many meanings of single word in Sanskrit. The meaning of any Sanskrit word depends upon the requirement of statement in particular situation like ‘कोटी’ means quality, crore and category. The meaning of ‘पार्थिवै’ also changes as per requirement of statement of particular situation so B.Debroy has translated 'पार्थिवै'  as 'Kshtriyas' because it fit the requirement of statement. 

_______________________________________________

2) Gandhari’s sons karna were not present in swayamavr contest. So their failure is out of context

Exposing –

Vaisamapayana himself mentioned that all kaurava brothers come to swayamvara to win hand of draupadi. Thus proves that Gandhari’s sons karna were present in swayamvara. The text also mentioned that karna come to protect kauravas

[Vaisampayana to Janamejaya]

O king! The Kouravas, led by Duryodhana, also came there, accompanied by Karna.

_______________________________________________

3) According to dictionary पार्थिवै means only king

Exposing –

Yes it's king if we used the link of same NON-AUTHENTIC dictionary which failed in cross verfication of 'Nyavartata' before few days back. People should understand the difference between ‘पार्थिवै’ and ‘पार्थिव’. If we go by pure sanskrit then the meaning of ‘पार्थिव’ also considered as ‘earthly’ which denotes deadbody.

Dictionaries : 

पार्थिव = Earthly or Prince or Royal

http://­spokensanskrit.org/­index.php?mode=3&scri­pt=hk&tran_input=पार­्थिव+&direct=au

पार्थिव = पृथ्वी संबंधी

http://­shabdkosh.raftaar.in/­Meaning-of-पार्थिव-in­-Hindi

पार्थिव = [वि.] - 1. पृथ्वी संबंधी 2. पृथ्वी से उत्पन्न; पृथ्वीतत्व का विकार रूप, जैसे- पार्थिव शरीर

http://­www.hindi2dictionary.­com/­parthiv-meaning-eng.h­tml

If we go by same logic of dictionaries then everyone should just all the scholars as they didn't translate पार्थिव as earthly deadbody. Deadbodies failed to perform unknown task. Two minutes silence. Lol

No dictionary in the word can give exact meaning of any sanskrit word because in the end, it's depend upon requirement of statement in that situation.The meaning of any Sanskrit word depends upon the requirement of statement in that particular situation

2. SCHOLAR KM GANGULEY

such celebrated Kshatriyas as Salya and others endued with might and accomplished in the science and practice of arms could not?

http://www.sacred-texts.com/hin/m01/m01191.htm

पार्थिवै = Kshtriyas, यत्कर्ण=To perform task

3. SCHOLAR PC ROY

such celebrated Kshatriyas as Salya and others endued with might and accomplished in the science and practice of arms could not?

पार्थिवै = Kshtriyas, यत्कर्ण=To perform task

4. SCHOLAR MN DUTT

such celebrated Kshatriyas as Salya and others endued with might and accomplished in the science and practice of arms could not?

पार्थिवै = Kshtriyas, यत्कर्ण=To perform task

EXPLAINATION –

According to secondary translation sources like KMG, MN Dutt and PC Roy even son of Gandhari did not failed to perform unknown task. Secondary sources omitted the name of Gandhari’s son karna from translation as the meaning of ‘यत्कर्ण’ was translated as verb ‘To perform task'. Secondary translations also translated ‘पार्थिवै’ as ‘Kshtriyas’

_______________________________________________

EXPOSING EXCUSES–

KMG, PC Roy and MN dutt are also fool like B. Debroy and they too mistranslated verse. They might have translated different script and karna fans should prove that they trasnslated verse of BORI CE

Exposing –

After blaming B.Debroy our great self made Vyasa's of Arjunpurana are accusing Kesari Mohan Ganguli and other scholars without understanding a simple thing that the sanksrit words are aften translated by all scholars according to requirement of statement in that particular situation. So the translation by all scholars of ‘पार्थिवै as Kshtriyas’ is 100% correct as per requirement of statement in that particular situation

Second it’s not our responsibility to prove that they used BORI CE verse because claim of mistranslation made by some entitled self called Geniuses . The Sanskrit verse is SAME IN ALL Sanskrit script even Nilkantha (which was refer by KMG for translation) contains same verse. 

Nilkantha Verse -

यत्कर्ण शल्यप्रमुखैःक्षत्रियेर्लोकविश्रुतैः |

नानतं बलवद्भिर्हि धनुर्वेदपरायणैः ||४|| 

पार्थिवै(क्षत्रिय)=Kshtriyas

The word ‘यत्कर्ण’ is common in all Sanskrit scripts which exists and all 3 scholars (KMG, MN Dutt and PC roy) translated it as ‘to perform the task’ supporting our correct translation.  We can provide 50 references  from all northern and southern recension for same Sanskrit verse can super begger SSC failed admin provide even one reference to prove that different verse exist. LOL.  

RESULT – According to KMG, MN Dutt and PC Roy even Gandhari’s son karna didn’t fail to string bow let alone suta’s son karna

5. SCHOLAR PANDIT RAMNARAYAN (Gita Press)

such celebrated Kshatriyas Like Karna and Salya and others endued with might and accomplished in the science and practice of arms could not?

पार्थिवै(क्षत्रिया)=Kshtriyas,  यत्कर्ण=Such as karna 

EXPLAINATION –

The script used by this scholar had replaced the word ‘पार्थिवै’ with ‘क्षत्रिया’ in Sanskrit verse thus again proves that ‘पार्थिवै’ was often used as alternative to Sanskrit word ‘क्षत्रिया’ in those days when our epic was written. This again proves that पार्थिवै=Kshtriyas

Pandit Ramnarayan also gives footnote where it’s clearly written that 'कर्ण ने बाण नही चढाया था’ means Karna didn’t participate in swayamvar contest. Thus according to this scholar also karna did not participate in swayamvar contest. SSC failed admin being slayer of English and hindi don’t know difference between ‘बाण नही चढाया था’ and ‘नही चढा सका था’. Slayer of hindi spotted. LOL

RESULT – According to scholar Pandit Ramnarayan (Gita Press), gandhari’s son karna failed to string the bow

6. SCHOLAR BAPAT SHASTRI

Marathi Version (Adi Parv, Section-188)

हे विप्रहो । धनुर्विदेत प्रविण असलेला कर्ण, शल्य इत्यादी क्षत्रिय

Meaning –

O Brahmanas ! Kshtriyas such as karna, shalya etc well versed in dhanuveda

पार्थिवै = Kshtriyas,  यत्कर्ण=Such as karna

EXPLAINATION –

Prof. Bapat Shastri also translated epic using same references like KMG version. He is considered to be highly qualified scholar in Marathi literature.

 

RESULT - According to Prof. Bapat. Shastri, gandhari’s son karna failed to string the bow

7. SCHOLAR MA MAHENDALE

The reason for authenticity of BORI CE is more than 50 scholars worked hard for it. If one scholar composed BORI CE then it wouldn’t be authentic. The adi parv of BORI CE is mainly edited by Prof. V. S. Sukhtankar and he did publish annal from his point view and his view are totally against MA Mahendale. The journal provided by SSC failed admin is not published by any BORI scholars who worked for original BORI CE project. 50 scholars used 1250 manuscipts for research and finally we have BORI CE. The scholar MA Mahendale had NO contribution to project except preparing index for publishing.  He was teacher and when he joined BORI institute, BORI CE project was already completed by original scholar team. His job was to publish index (it’s just like decorating book). So he is just scholar who published his own retelling through annal like Prof. Devdutt Patnaik who published Jaya – Retelling of mahabharata

Main Mahabharata Version Editors

Prof. V. S. Sukhtankar

Prof. S. K. Belvalkar, 

Prof. S. K. De

Prof. Dr. R. N. Dandekar

BORI annals Editors

Dr. S. K. Belvalkar

Dr. A. D.Pusalkar

Dr. R. N. Arun Dandekar

http://www.bori.ac.in/mahabharata_project.html

The scholar has published his journal and there is no 100% confirmation by him for failure of any karna rather he just confirmed that draupadi rejecting karna is interpolation. His analysis is based upon following assumptions

_______________________________________________

1) Draupada had invited karna to participate in swayamvara contest

EXPLAINATION  –

There is no text which proves that karna was invited by king draupada. The text clearly states that duryodhana headed by his brothers comes to participate and karna just come with them for company (support)

[Vaisampayana to Janamejaya]

O king! The Kouravas, led by Duryodhana, also came there, accompanied by Karna.

Second, Draupad was cast minded human who didn’t want to hand over his daughter to anyone (except Brahmin or kshtriya) and just hate low cast vaishya and sudras like hell. Then how can he invite low cast suta karna to hand over his daughter?

Adi Parv, Section-181

[Draupad to Dhristdyumn]

The great-souled one asked Dhrishtadyumna, “Where has Krishna gone? Who has taken her away? Is it a Shudra or one of low birth? Has a Vaishya who pays taxes placed his feet on my head? Has a garland been thrown away on a cremation ground? O son! Or is it a foremost man from our own varna, or is it one from a higher varna? Or has a lower being placed his foot on my head and defiled Krishna?

_______________________________________________

2) Swayamvar contest was neutral and all caste were allowed to participate

EXPLAINATION –

There is no swayamvar in the history which was opened for all castes. According to rules of veda shastra Only kshatriyas were allowed to participate in swayamvara contest not even brahmanas. Kshtriyas were not ready to accept it as only kshtriya had rights over swyamvara. If any kshtriya won contest other would have accepted it but kshtriyas were not ready to accept Brahmin as it was against the tradition of swayamvara. If swayamvara was restricted for ONLY KSHTRIYAS then suta karna’s participation is out of context. This is also reason why did karna marry suta girl as per choice of adhiratha as he was not allowed to participate in any swayamvara

Adi Parv, Section-180

The sacred texts clearly say that a svayamvara is for Kshatriyas; Brahmanas have no right in the choice of a husband. O kings! If this lady does not wish one of us as her husband, let us throw her into the fire and return to our kingdoms.

DHRISTDYUMN TOO MAKE IT CLEAR THAT ONLY MAN BORN IN NOBLE FAMILY CAN PARTICIPATE IN CONTEST

Adi Parv, Section-179

Dhrishtadyumna went to the centre of the arena and spoke, in a thundering voice, words that were deep with meaning and sweet. “O assembled kings! Hear that this is the bow, that is the target and these are the arrows. With these five arrows, shoot the target through the hole in the centre of the machine. I truly say that the handsome and strong one, born in a noble family, who accomplishes this great feat today, will obtain as his wife my sister Krishna.

NOBLE FAMILY (High Cast Family) - Thus swayamvara was restricted for noble family man not suta low cast family man

RESULT – According to scholar MA Mahendale, there is no confirmation for karna’s success/failure and his most of the assumptions are false for analysis of draupadi rejecting karna episode

_______________________________________________

8. Prof. V. S. SUKHTANKAR

He is the main editor of BORI CE and head of all scholar. He did detail research on adi parv. He too discussed the matter of swayamvara and concluded following conclusion. You can read his editorial notes on this link

gretil.sub.uni-goettingen.de/gretil_elib/Suk933__Sukthankar_ProlegomenaMBh1.pdf

1) According to Prof. V.S. Sukhtankar, Draupadi rejecting karna text can be find out in SIX MANUSCRIPTS  K* Ñ2 Dn D2.4. c, that is, one manuscript of the K group, one Nepali manuscript, and three composite Devanāgarī manuscripts, besides the Nīlakaṇṭha version

According to MA Mahendale, Draupadi rejecting karna is given in only FOUR manuscripts.Prof. V.S. Sukhtankar himself EXPOSED MA Mahendale as he mentioned two more manuscript

2) According to Prof. V.S. Sukhtankar,the oldest dated manuscript of BORI critical apparatus is a Nepali manuscript (Ñ3) which bears a date corresponding to A.D. 1511. Prof. V.S. Sukhtankar, already states that Draupadi rejecting karna is given in nepali manuscript. Thus proves that

ACCORDING TO OLDEST MANUSCRIPT OF MAHABHARATA WHICH BELONGS TO A.D 1511, DRAUPADI HAD REJECTED KARNA ON THE GROUND OF CAST

3) Prof. V.S. Sukhtankar himself discussed the swayamvar topic in detail. But he NEVER said that karna failed in swayamvar. If karna failed then he would have mentioned that as he discussed the topic in detail but he never said anything about karna's participation even when he discussed all means for which draupadi rejecting karna episode was omitted. Thus proves that

ACCORDING TO PROF. V.S. SUKHTANKAR, KARNA NEVER FAILED IN SWAYAMVAR AND EVEN DRAUPADI REJECTING KARNA IS THE CONTROVERSIAL TOPIC AS 'NAHAM VARIYAM SUTAM' IS THE PART OF OLDEST MANUSCRIPT OF MAHABHARATA

FINAL RESULT –

All scholars are humans. More than 6 sanskrit scholars already confirm that suta’s son karna didn’t fail to do unknown task.

3 scholars confirmed that some kshtriya karna failed to perform unknown task and remaining 3 confirmed that even gandhari’s son karna didn’t fail to perform unknown task

According to BORI CE, word to word translation proves that Even Shalya did not fail to string bow let alone Gandhari's son Karna because that verse doesn’t mentioned stringing process

There is no 100% confirmation by Scholar MA Mahendale  for this and his most of the assumptions are falses

Prof. V.S.Sukhtankar himself exposed MA mahendale and admit that 'Draupadi rejecting karna' event is the part of oldest manuscript of mahabharata. He also confirmed that karna did not participate in contest

■ MISCONCEPTION -3 : ARJUNA HAD PIERCED THE EYE OF FISH BY SEEING IT’S REFLECTION IN WATER/OIL POT

Adi Parv, Section-179, Verse-16

सज्यं च चक्रे निमिषान्तरेण; शरांश्च जग्राह दशार्धसङ्ख्यान् |

विव्याध लक्ष्यं निपपात तच्च; छिद्रेण भूमौ सहसातिविद्धम् ||१६||

B.Debroy Translation –

In the twinkling of an eye, he strung the bow and grasped the five arrows. Through the hole in the machine, he suddenly pierced the target and it fell down on the ground

EXPOSING –

1) Arjuna had managed to string bow (as bow was designed by king Draupad keeping arjuna in mind so there was nothing special if he strung bow)

2) He took five arrows to shoot one target. Arjuna need five arrows to hit one simple target this itself proves his lack of archery skill. LOL

3) No fish, No water/oil pot, No reflection. It was simple ordinary target that’s why he was able to hit target

Last but not least,

there was no guarantee of arjuna if he can hit same target again because he was too ordinary and crook warrior who hit the target sometime and even missed the simple target many times Arjuna even failed to hit deer which was present in front of his naked eyes. He shot many arrows and his inexhaustible quiver became exhaustible still he was unable to hit that deer even once. He repeatedly shot arrows aiming at deer and failed every time. Deer used arjuna for entertainment and as arjuna was consumed by hunger and thirst, Deer spared life of arjuna and vanished from spot. Arjuna is still searching for that deer for revenge for his humiliation

KARNA v/s ARJUAN – (Skill of bow stringing)

***********************************

ARJUNA WAS UNABLE TO STRING HIS OWN BOW GANDIVA –

Mausala Parv, Section-9

[Arjuna to Vyassa]

Though I picked up my bow, I found that I was unable to string it.

KARNA WAS ABLE TO STRING HIS OWN BOW VIJAYA -

Karna Parv, Section-64

Having spoken these words, the powerful and brave son of a suta, picked up Vijaya, his ancient and excellent bow. O great king! Having strung it, he repeatedly rubbed the string. He asked the warriors to return. "The immensely strong one with an immeasurable soul took a pledge of truth and invoked the Bhargava weapon

RESULT –

Arjuna was able to hit ordinary target. Fish, Water pot and Reflection are the fictional concepts of TV Serials. Arjuna was just ordinary crook warrior who sometime managed to hit simple target and most of the times missed simple target

_________________________________________________________________

■ CONCLUSION –

A) According to BORI CE, Lord Krishna did not participate in swayamvar contest failure is out of context

B) Accoridng to BORI CE, even shalya did not fail to string bow let alone gandhari’s son karna or suta’s son karna

C) According to 3 Scholars B.Debroy, Pandit Ramnarayana and Bapat Shastri. All of them confirmed that Gandhari’s son Karna and Shalya failed to perform unknown task

D) Acoording to 3 scholars KMG, PC Roy and MN Dutt. All of them confirmed that Gandhari’s son karna did not fail only shalya failed to perform unknown task

E) According to BORI CE, Arjuna didn’t hit target by seeing any reflection

F) According to BORI CE, Karna strung his bow but Arjuna FAILED  to string his bow

G) According to editorial notes by Prof. V.S.Sukthankar (main editor of BORI), suta's son did not fail. Draupadi rejecting karna is the part of oldest manuscript of mahabharata

 

Pandavas the real villains of Mahabharata

List of unrighteous/wrong acts committed by the Pandavas as per the Mahabharata

I have seen some pandava fans who were crying just because their idols (evil triplet) fell in the hell and Karna obtained seat along with lord vishnu. So here is the all reasons why all pandavas fell in the hell.
This is all true and as per ved Vyasa's mahabharata and the most terrifying fact is that Pandavas did the most wrongs yet they are the protagonists of Mahabharata .

___________________________________________________________________________

1. When both the Pandavas and the Kauravas were children, Bhima, with his massive physical strength, grew up to be a bully, and used to torture the younger Kauravas, sometimes almost on the verge of killing them. This is the first of the long series of crimes committed by the Pandavas. Neither Bhishma nor any elders could stop Bhima for the Pandavas had contracted their identity as god children and we all know that noone dares question such people.
     As Yudhisthira was elder than Bhima and the Kauravas, it was his duty to refrain Bhima from torturing his younger cousins. But he did nothing of this sort, and we can conclude he silently supported Bhima's misdeeds. This is the first crime of the eldest Pandava. He was a clever politician as he spent all his childhood not in honing his skills as a warrior or statesman but degrading the status of kauravas ,he had managed to gain the support of all the Brahmins .Everybody blames Duryodhana for lakshagraha incident but the fact is Duryodhan was helpless ,he was harassed all his life and lastly whole public tried to make Yudhistira the sole heir to the throne. What Duryodhana did was wrong but he alone was the sole heir to the throne ,I will prove it in my next blog .

2. While living in Drona's school/ashrama, Arjuna, unable to excel Ekalavya in archery, and burning with jealousy, encouraged or rather we may say, compelled Drona to deprive Ekalavya of his thumb. This was the first crime of the third Pandava. And when Ekalavya had been deprived of his thumb, Arjuna felt very such satisfied. This displays he enjoyed other people's sufferings. Now many people blame Drona for his caste mindedness but the truth is that Drona was compelled as Arjuna wouldn't budge until his rival Eklavya ,the throne to his title as the best warrior was removed ,little did he knew that there was another warrior better than everyone ,Karna knew Drona's helplessness so he didn't force him to teach the celestial weapons as Arjuna having known Karna's motives might have gotten him killed .

3. Pandavas were illegal adopted sons of pandu whereas Duryodhana was legal heir to throne still pandava begged for kingdom without any reason ,I will provide this with evidence in my next post but all you gotta know is that ,
* Pandu was never the heir to the throne ,Dritrashtra was dethroned because of his blindness only while pandu was made the king all he did was go to a great expedition ,he conquered several territories and then gave it all to his brother and retired to the forest ,contrary to the popular belief Pandu hadn't taken sanyasi ,he was still living in luxury in the forest while his poor blind brother was taking care of everything as the king and later pandu took sanyas/celibacy only when he shot down a Rishi(ascetic) who was having intercourse with his wife whom Pandu thought was a deer .
*Kunti later went on to get pregnant with 5 sons through an ancient tradition called niyoga ,the sons born lived with their father as an ascetic themselves with no right or knowledge to the throne at all .
* Dritrashtra was the king by now ,a great one ,he was well liked for his equality towards the people of all the castes ,his own scribe of suta caste aka sanjaya was his friend as well as Karna's father .His blindness made him an outcaste so he never looked down upon the people ,a great quality inherited by Duryodhana .
* Later Pandavas were taken care by Dritrashtra himself when Pandu died ,the Pandavas only managed to get to throne because of their birth ,people thought Yudhistira being the son of the god of justice would be a better king also Duryodhana's image was greatly degraded by now .
*The main reason for Duryodhana getting denied the throne was superstition ,when he was born supposedly there were lots of ill omens ,Bhishma and Vidura his own great grandpa and uncle suggested killing him and they were in full support of Pandavas getting the throne ,poor king Dritrashtra who should have had the sole right to decide the heir had to constantly fear for his son's life for everyone considered him a bad luck so pandavas were lucky in this aspect and were about to snatch the throne when Duryodhan finally acted as he always did for his family , not being in power would have definitely injured his family ,his only support was Karna but what much could the sun of sun do himself ? if the whole world thinks your birth is wrong and are all conspiring to eradicate you as well as your well wishers, the only option is to tackle the problem through any means ,thus Duryodhana's ill motive of burning the pandavas at lakshagraha atleast gave him half the kingdom and made him strong enough politically for enough time so that karna could gain maximum alliance through his later Digvijaya and thus Duryodhan would stay safe ,we all look at one side of the coin only but the truth is much much complicated .

4. At the martial exhibition of Hastinapura, Bhima insulted Karna, literally comparing him to a dog, just for Karna's being from a lower-caste family. The other Pandavas silently supported Bhima, displaying their disregard for the lower-caste people. See Karna always disliked pandavas ,he was of ordinary suta caste who always wanted to be a warrior but while his dreams were hard and he was on his own there came a bunch of kids who claimed to be son of gods ,contrary to popular belief karna was a good friend or Duryodhan from childhood ,he could only watch his friend's plight and his own helplessness both regarding his friend's and his dreams while this god sons were pampered and over glorified while all their vile practices against his friend and people were let go off ,also Karna was also the person who wanted fame as the best warrior same as Arjuna so his sole nemesis also turned out to be pandavas .Karna didn't stop because of his status both economically or socially ,he aspired and turned out to be the very best and disrupted the tournament at hastinapura where he displayed skills 10folds better than Arjuna only to get insulted for his caste which led to making him the king of Anga ,an ordinary son of charioteer became a king and thus his journey started .

5. When Drona sent his disciples to capture Drupada, Arjuna (and the other Pandavas) refused to accompany the Kauravas. Thus they undermined the kingdom's reputation for their own political designations. It was a clear act of treachery towards Hastinapura.
Pandavas very well knew Drupad's strategy which kauravas didn't so they made kauravas go first to the war and innocent kauravas went only to get defeated and humiliated ,this was one of Yudhistira's strategy to usurp the throne as who was supposed to be the king wasn't decided yet .

6. In the Lakshagriha incident,  yudhistira supported by all pandavas plotted to burn innocent woman and five kids. Kunti mixed poison in their food. Pandavas murdered six innocent Nishadas (a Nishada woman and her five children) to fake their own death. We all blame Duryodhan for trying to burn pandavas while we over look their own act of burning 6 beggars of nishadas caste so that they can escape without suspicion ,Duryodhana or Karna never harmed any innocent civilian in their entire life but pandavas did many digusting stuffs to ordinary people in cold blood .

7. During their first self-designed exile, Bhima met Hidimva and despite no fault of hers, was about to kill her. (Though later she was spared due to Yudhisthira's politically-motivate­d intervention). Here Hidimba's brother sent her to kill the pandavas ,she fell in love with pandavas and was fed up with her brother's murderous nature so she told bhima everything and got her own brother killed for her love while Bhima decided to kill her which no pandavas were against but the mastermind Yudhistira stopped him and got her married to bhima who later abandoned her father fulfilling his lust and fathering a son yet the pandavas forged a strong political ally that day ie the rakshasas.

8. After winning Draupadi at swyamvara, the other Pandavas felt lust for her despite Draupadi being won by their brother Arjun ,Yudhistira was so infatuated that he married her and deflowered her first all without asking for her consent which is proven in the end when she fell first at the Himalayas because of her love for arjuna alone as Yudhistira himself confessed .

9. The five Pandavas together married Draupadi, literally dividing her like a piece of biscuit.

10. Arjuna, while he was observing the vow of Brahmacharya, broke its all rules, married thrice and fathered three children and except for Shubadra he abandoned both his other wives.

11. Arjuna abducted Subhadra against her will, dragged and forced her to marry him. (We can say Arjuna raped Subhadra because coercing anyone to have physical relations with her/him also comes under the definition of rape).

12. Arjuna (and his partner-in-crime Krishna) burnt down the entire Khandava forest, mercilessly massacring innumerable vidhyadharas human tribes, animals and birds who had done no harm to anybody all for stupid weapons ie gandiva bow and sudarshan chakra in return.

13. The Pandavas insulted Duryodhana without any reason, when he had gone to Indraprashtha to attend the Rajasuya sacrifice ,they purposely led him to a place where an artificial water decoration on the floor looked identical to hard floor but was water knees deep and pandavas didn't stop him their own brother and second most powerful kingdom's prince and upon that laughed their hearts out at his fall into the water pathetically ,it was kind of show of power for them against Duryodhana.

14. Yudhisthira, during the dice episode, gambled away his kingdom, his brothers and his wife just to snatch kingdom of duryodhana (fun fact : Yudhistira himself confessed that he wanted to snatch Duryodhana's kingdom). Its no one other than yudhistira who ordered draupadi to come at assembly exposing her navel just to gain public sympathy .(Yudhistira is better than politicians now a days).

15. Even after getting back the lost kingdom by the intervention of the kind-hearted Dhritarashtra, Yudhishthira once again gambled away his kingdom, he was extremely addicted to gambling .

16. While living in the forest, Bhima used to kill hundreds of animals, who had not harmed anyone, just for entertainment.

17. Arjuna misbehaved with the disguised Shiva, thinking him to be a person of the lower-caste and abused kirata ,he shot an arrow at Shiva disguised as a hunter just because Shiva claimed a boar that Arjuna and Shiva both killed to be his kill ,if only an ordinary person was standing instead of god himself but people glorify this incident .

18. The Pandavas made Indra to trick Karna into parting from his impenetrable armour and ear-rings. Pandavas were dancing after donation of Karna but little did they know the smart karna tricked Indra into giving him vasavi shakti the most destructive weapon .

19. Arjuna was going to test his destructive celestial weapons against innocent animals.

20. While living in the Matsya kingdom, Kichaka tried to rape Draupadi, and Yudhishthira, instead of protecting Draupadi, told her to 'live with it'. (Yudhisthira was ready to let Kichaka rape Draupadi for his political ambitions as protecting his wife would have revealed their identity ,Draupadi was literally crying when Yudhi told her to stop overacting )

21. The Pandavas, despite being discovered during the incognito, illegally claimed the kingdom from Duryodhana. Infact all kings of aryavrat were humiliated by pandavas without any reason thats why all of them adopted the side of kauravas ,they had a chance of switching sides even though Karna had won them over .

22. The Pandavas, and specially Sahadeva, secretly sabotaged the peace mission of Krishna for their greed of the kingdom.

23. Before the war, Yudhisthira begged Salya to demoralize Karna, and sabotage Karna's war efforts.

24. The Pandavas never cared for their children, but used them during the great war. Arjuna ran away after using his wives for physical satisfaction

25. The Pandavas took advantage of Bhishma's affection towards them, and compelled him to reveal the method of his defeat

26. Arjuna was laughing at bhishma while attacking bhishma hiding behind woman. Bhima danced in joy when bhishma fell down

27. Arjuna overthrew Bhishma, taking cover behind one whom Bhishma considered a eunuch. (Bhishma was actually deceived by the Pandava disinformation campaign into thinking that Shikhandi was reincarnation of Amba, while this wasn't true. Shikhandi was demon not amba).

28. Arjuna killed King Bhagadatta by fraudulent means when bhagdatta lost his vision

29. Yudhisthira sacrificed Abhimanyu to save his own life on the 13th day of the war

30. Arjuna attacked weaponless and chariotless Karna from behind on the 14th day

31. Arjuna, with the assistance of Krishna, deceived Jayadratha and killed him

32. Arjuna sacrificed Ghatotkacha on the 14th night to save his own life from Karna. It's arjuna who ordered ghatotkach to kill karna with the help of satyaki

33. Pandavas plotted to murder their preceptor who trusted them more than his own son. Yudhisthira and Bhima lied to his preceptor Drona that Aswatthama had been killed, and allowed Dhrishtadyumna to kill an unarmed and unprepared Drona. Bhima again began to dance after the fall of drona

34. On the 17th day, Arjuna attacked Aswatthama from behind.

35. On the same day, Bhima brutally killed Dussasana and drank his blood just like a monster and admitted it's taste superior to milk of his mother

36. On the same day, the Pandavas killed Vrishasena by using unfair means.

37. On the same day, Arjuna killed an unarmed and chariotless Karna from behind.

38. On the last day of the war, the Pandavas killed King Salya using unfair tactics.

39. On the same day, Bhima killed Duryodhana by violating all rules of fair war just because bhima trembled with fear. Bhima even kicked the head of fallen duryodhana

40. After the war, Bhima, with silent approval of his elder brother, misbehaved with the old Dhritarashtra and Gandhari, and compelled them to leave the kingdom.

41. During the conquest of the Aswamedha sacrifice, Arjuna, due to his ego, abused and attacked his own son Vabhruvahana, and was killed by him as a result. (As you sow, so you reap tongue emoticon )

42. finally, Arjuna didn't save Krishna's wives from robbers, and fled the battlefield leaving the women at the hands of cruel robbers. (You can imagine what happened to those poor ladies)

Justice -

At last, as punishment for their lifelong misdeeds, crimes and sins the Pandavas died like beggars at the Himalayas, and experienced punishment in hell as well.
