Water standing on hot metal becomes a formless substance, My water is like a pearl, My water is like a pearl in purity, My water is like a pearl in purity, The right kind of person is like a circle, The middle kind is like a pearl If a drop of water falls into a pearl shell, the pearl shell turns into a pearl due to the quality of association. Similarly, one who takes refuge in the best attains true happiness. Therefore, one should take refuge in the best and attain true happiness. The Bhartruhari Nitishataka says that one should not take refuge in the inferior and the middle. "
'Neechashrayana kartavyah kartavyo mahadashrayah' is a well-known saying, "One should not take refuge in the lowly. One should take refuge in the best."
Rama is endowed with all qualities. He is a true speaker, has fear and devotion towards elders. He has the quality of practicing Dharma with threefold purity. He has the ability to know the qualities of a person. That is why.. Jatayu, Hanuman. Sugriva, Vibhishana all took refuge in the best Sri Rama. It is the abode of Rama that
made them endowed with qualities. They are all like drops of water planted in the heart of Rama like a pearl shell. That is why they have remained in history like pearls.
In the Mahabharata, the Pandavas.. were following the orders and commands of their elder brother, Dharmaraja. Because of that elder brother, they also became good men. They listened. Dharmaraja's permission was required for any work. During the period of incognito, Dharmaraja kept warning his four brothers to be careful at every step in Virata's palace. Draupadi was chased by Keechaka. Thus they entered Virata's palace. Draupadi was saying, "Is there no one to protect me in this assembly?" and Bhima, enraged by the words of Draupadi, was about to uproot a nearby tree. At that time, Dharmaraja warned, "Bhima! It is not good to use a green tree as a cooking stick." If Dharmaraja had not said that, Bhima's true form would have been revealed. The incognito period would have been broken. The Pandavas would have had to live in the forests for another thirteen years. Similarly, Lord Krishna kept giving good advice and protecting the Pandavas at every step. These stories show that such friendship is good..
If we look at the characters of Mandhara and Kaikeyi in the Ramayana..
Mandhara used all her intelligence. She talked sweetly. Kaikeyi thought that everything in Mandhara's words was true. 'Kaika! If Rama is crowned, Kausalya will become the queen mother. Then she will treat you as a slave. You will have to spend your life serving your son Bharata.
Therefore, ask Dasharatha for a boon. He promised you two boons in the past. Ask for them now,' she said sweetly, as if she was saying that Kaikeyi would get well. Kaikeyi changed her mind.
She could not understand that Mandhara's words were going to cause trouble. She ruthlessly asked Dasharatha for a boon. Okay, Dasharatha did not have to do it. Because of those boons, Rama went to the forests. Dasharatha closed his eyes. Bharata, filled with devotion for his brother, wore saffron and worshipped Rama's sandals in the kingdom of Nandigram. He ruled in the name of his brother.
Kaikeyi, who knew everything, became a monster due to Mandhara's words. She lost her discretion. She remained with the name 'Kaikei, a wicked woman, a bad one'.
Karna is Duryodhana..
To examine the powers and abilities of the Kauravas and Pandavas who had completed their education under Dronacharya, Kumar arranged an astronomical demonstration. At that time, Karna said that he would also demonstrate his knowledge. He declared that he was not a king and was unworthy. Immediately, without thinking ahead, Duryodhana declared Karna as the king of Angara and had him crowned. Karna, pleased with Duryodhana's deed, declared that he would dedicate his life to Duryodhana. He felt that Duryodhana had truly helped him. He had been committing atrocities for that Duryodhana at every step. Karna. Despite being a great warrior, Karna was facing defeat at every step due to the evil thoughts within him. It was because of joining Duryodhana's shadow that such a disaster happened.
