Most of the incidents in Mahabharata are related to Lord Shri Krishna, but there is one incident that is connected to Lord Shiva. In this incident, it is not only revealed why Lord Shiva was angry with the Pandavas but also where and when these Pandavas will be born in Kaliyug. This secret was revealed by Lord Shri Krishna. So let's delve into this incident in detail...
In Mahabharata, the Pandavas were very dear to Lord Shri Krishna, but despite this, they could not escape the curse of Lord Shiva. What was this curse, why did Mahadev give this curse, and how did the Pandavas come to know about their birth in Kaliyug? Let's explore in detail...
During the Mahabharata war, when Duryodhana was left to die, Ashwatthama thought of avenging his friend's condition, and with this intention, he, along with Kritavarma and Kripacharya, reached the Pandava's camp. There, he saw that Mahadev himself was protecting the Pandava's camp. The Pandavas were not in the camp. But after this, these three started contemplating on killing the Pandava's sons, but it was not possible in the presence of Lord Shiva. Therefore, Ashwatthama worshipped Mahadev. Mahadev was already angry with the Pandavas due to the atrocities of the Mahabharata war, and Ashwatthama's worship forced him to help them. They merged into Ashwatthama, and Mahadev gave him a sword so that he could fulfill his intention. After receiving Mahadev's command, all three together killed all the sons of the Pandavas with the divine weapon obtained from Lord Shiva.
Pandavas received a curse from Lord Shiva
When the Pandavas heard the news of their sons' death, they also considered Lord Shiva responsible for it and went to fight him. Mahadev was extremely angry with their action and told them that they were dear to Lord Shri Krishna. Therefore, in this birth, they would not face the punishment for this sin, but they would have to suffer it by taking birth again in Kaliyug. Instead of justice, they received a curse, which made the Pandavas sad, and they went to Lord Shri Krishna for a solution. They told Shri Krishna about the curse, and Shri Krishna revealed the secret of their next birth to them.
Shri Krishna revealed where the Pandavas would be born in Kaliyug
In Bhavishyapuran, it is also described that Lord Shri Krishna told them that in Kaliyug, Arjuna's birth will be in the kingdom of Parilok, and he will be famous as Brahmananda. Yudhishthira will become the son of King Vatsaraj and his name will be Malkhan. Bhima will be born in Kaliyug as Veeran and will become the king of the Vanar kingdom. Nakul will be born at the house of King Ratnabhanu in Kanauj, and he will be known as Lakshan. About Sahadev, Shri Krishna said that he will be born as Devsingh in the house of King Bhimsen. Shri Krishna also mentioned about Dhrishtadyumna's birth. He said that they will be born in Ajmer as Prithviraj and Draupadi will be born as his daughter, named Vela. Yes, how they will suffer the punishment in this birth, Shri Krishna did not reveal anything.
