    43:34 mam this tell us about self independence of the women that she should not always come back when there is any problem
    Kanva is worried about sakuntala but she should also stand for its own in this world
    You only come to know about the world when you suffer without any suffering or any struggle you cannot live, survive in this world.

    Isn't it Priyamvada who talks to Sage Durvasa while Anasuya hangs back ? (Mentioned otherwise in the lecture)
    Please clarify. It will help those giving exams 🙏

    • @NibblePop
      @NibblePop  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It was Anasuya who spoke to Durvasa and reported it back to Priyamvada. I double checked with William Jones' translation too.

    • @akhilasok91
      @akhilasok91 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@NibblePop According to Monier Williams translation, it says Anasuya persuades Priyamvada to go ahead and talk to Sage Durvasa while Anasuya hangs back promising to prepare offerings to Durvasa in case he comes back.
      Also, in the Sanskrit version we have to study (Shakunthalaprakashika), it says "प्रियंवदा द्रुतगत्या धावन्तम् महर्षिमनुगत्य प्रियवचनैरनुनयन्ती तं प्रत्यागमनाय प्रार्थयत ।"
      (Priyamvada quickly ran behind Maharshi and through sweet words prayed for him to come back.)

      @@akhilasok91 Thank you for pointing that out. I am sorry but I have not come across Monier's version yet. However, since many standard editions have my version too , it won't be a big issue for students. In WBSU we keep this in mind. Anasuya and Priyamvada may be taken together as a unit.
      Please point out freely if you notice any more discrepancies. Thank you once again.

      It is a nataka, ancient Indian drama based on a subplot of the epic Mahabharata.

      ​@@NibblePopSo, it can be believed that it is a made up play based on Mahabharata. This irrelevant or say complicated question is arriving in my head just because of some characters and the history behind them.
