The Relevance of Mahabharata VI

Swamiji in this message speaks about the different Yugas and explains how the decline started in the society.

In Krita Yuga, everyone was happy, contented and fulfilled. But it gradually declined and there was a need for a monarch in Treta Yuga to maintain order and discipline.

In Dvapara Yuga, independent thoughts and aspiration became strong and people took to argumentation and logic. Swamiji gives the example of the Kuru assembly where the Pandavas lost in the game of dice and everyone was given a chance to argue and present their case.

Shlokas chanted in the track:

कृते तु कृतकृत्यत्वात् त्रेतायाम् नृपशासने द्वापरे तर्कचातुर्य
