Timeline of Krishna Avatar - Krishna Lila from 84 to 125 years Dharma Yuddham
Ends
- Gandhari's Grace - Duryodhana hid himself in the lake after hearing that all his
brothers have been killed in the war. Kripa and Ashwattama adviced him that it is not proper of a great warrior to run away
from battle. They asked him to meet Gandhari to seek her advice. Gandhari asked Duryodhana to take bath and come naked to
her tent. So that with the help of her powerful eyes she would make his parts invincible which is hard to get affected by
powerful blows of Bhima. This plot was known by Shri Krishna. He went and found Duryodhana entering Gandhari's tent. He mocked
at Duryodhana of his behaviour. He also told to cover the internal parts and his thigs. Duryodhana covered his thigs and internal
parts and went to see his mother. When Gandhari opened her eyes, she could make invincible only the exposed parts. The thigs
were not treated. She also scolded Duryodhana for not obeying her orders. Duryodhana then started fighting with Bhima.
- Duryodhana's End - They both fought for many hours. When Lord Krishna hinted Bhima
to hit him in the thigs. Bhima did and Duryodhana fell on ground. Duryodhana also told that it is not proper to hit a person
with a mace on the thigs. It is against the rule. But Lord Krishna spoke that the cheatings and harmful activities done to
pandavas by Duryodhana like Draupadi's grief, killing Bhima in the pond, killing Pandavas in the lac palace, Game of Dice,
Abhimanyu's death. Duryodhana then died of pain. All the warriors were respectfully cremated by the Pandavas.
- Aswattama's Astra - Ashwattama killed all the sons of Pandavas when they were sleeping
during night. Draupadi asked Arjuna to fight against him. Arjuna and Lord Krishna set out in search of Ashwattama. They found
him fleeing. Ashwattama could not run out of their sight, so he set out Brahmastra, which he does not know to take back. Arjuna
asked Krishna for help. Lord Krishna told to send Brahmastra to overcome this. When both the astras were fighting, the whole
world got heated up. Arjuna then took back the Astras and got Ashwattama to Draupadi.
- Ashwattama's Gem - Draupadi told not to kill a Brahmana, Ashwattama. Instead as suggested
by Lord Krishna she asked Arjuna to remove the Gem from his head. It is equivalent to Ashwattama's life. Bhima also accepted
with other Pandavas. Ashwattama's gem was removed and he was set free.
- Yudhistra's Coronation - With the blessings of Lord Krishna, Yudhistra was coronated
as the King of Hastinapur and Indraprasta.
- Birth of Parikshith - When Lord Krishna was about to set out for Dwaraka, Uttara
came running and pleaded the Lord to save her child from Aswattama's Astra. Uttara is wife of Abhimanyu. Lord Krishna who
is saviour of all and one who saves in times of Distress, he is also called as Achyuta took his Sudarshana Chakra, first saved
the Pandavas from the Astra and then entered the womb of Uttara and saved the child with the help of Sudarshana Chakra. Everybody
praised and Thanked Achyutha Kesava. Krishna then started towards his journey to Dwaraka.
