Life\u2019s unfairness does not give you license to walk the wrong path of dharma!
\nKarna asked Krishna – \u201cMy mother left me the moment I was born.
\nIs it my fault I was born an illegitimate child?
\nI did not get education from Dhronacharya because I was considered a non Kshatriya.
\nParshu-Raam taught me but then gave me the curse to forget everything since I was a kshatriya.
\nA cow was accidentally hit by my arrow & its owner cursed me for no fault of mine.
\nI was disgraced in Draupadi\u2019s swayamvar.
\nEven Kunti finally told me the truth only to save her other sons.
\nWhatever I received was through Dhuryodhana\u2019s charity. So how am I wrong in taking his side?\u201d
\nKrishna replies, \u201cKarna, I was born in a jail.
\nDeath was waiting for me even before my birth.
\nThe night I was born I was separated from my birth parents.
\nFrom childhood you grew up hearing the noise of swords, chariots, horses, bow and arrows.
\nI got only cow herd\u2019s shed, dung, and multiple attempts on my life even before I could walk!
\nNo army, no education. I could hear people saying I am the reason for all their problems.
\nWhen all of you were being appreciated for your valour by your teachers I had not even received any education. I joined gurukula of Rishi Sandipani only at the age of 16!
\nYou are married to a girl of your choice. I didn\u2019t get the girl I loved & rather ended up marrying those who wanted me or the ones I rescued from demons.
\nI had to move my whole community from the banks of Yamuna to far off Sea shore to save them from Jarasandh. I was called a coward for running away.
\nIf Dhuryodhana wins the war you will get lot of credit. What do I get if Dharmaraja wins the war? Only the blame for the war and all related problems.
\nRemember one thing Karna. Everybody has challenges in life. LIFE IS NOT FAIR ON ANYBODY. Dhuryodhan also has a lot of unfairness in life and so has Yudhhishthir.
\nBut what is Right (Dharma) is known to your mind (conscience). No matter how much unfairness we got, how many times we were disgraced, how many times we were denied what was due to us, what is important is how you REACTED at that time. Stop whining Karna. Life\u2019s unfairness does not give you license to walk the wrong path of dharma!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
