week 13 notes Mahabharata part A

Account of how Karma functions....

1- The king married the river goddess but she made him promise that he would never question her decisions. Everyone was happy for them but after she drown their first child the king was sad. She did the same for the next six children and he said nothing, he did not question her. When she was about to do the same to their eight he learned the truth. They had been cursed to live mortal lives so she was to kill her eight children. She left with their last remaining child.

5- After the three princesses are kidnapped the eldest wanted to be let go. She went to her king who she loved but he rejected her because she had been taken by another man. She went back to the other king and asked for him to marry her. He was celibate and did not want to marry her even though he had kidnapped her and her life was ruined. She wanted to punish him for his crime. She found someone to fight him to the death. After 23 days nobody had won. Amba never got her revenge.

8- The queens were scared of Satyavati. They were told that they would have a blind son so they need to keep their eyes open. When she turned pale they told her her son would be born pale. The servant girl accepted him for the way he looked. All three women gave birth. The first baby was blind, the second pale and weak. The servant girl gave birth to a wise man. They were all raised together but were the brothers because there were too many contenders for the throne.
