Never
once in the Mahabharatha did Dhuryodhana observe the
principles of righteousness towards the Pandava brothers;
at last, he had to face the inevitable doom, when Bheema
challenged him for the duel which was to lay him low. At
that moment, Dhuryodhana, the author of the deceitful
gambling game, the house of lac which was set on fire, the
insult heaped on the honoured Queen, the slaughterer of
Abhimanyu by a pack of ferocious foes who fell upon him -
the dark designer of all these iniquities, took refuge in
Dharma and started quoting texts. Dharma
is not a handy excuse to escape the evil consequences of
one’s actions. Righteousness is not to be treated as
a means of escape; it is a means of living.
Bagavan Sri Sri Sri Sathya Sai Baba
