Would love to see a collab of you two going into more detail of Hindu Mythology. It’s one of my favorites when it comes to storytelling and a culture as a whole.
It's not mythology first of all .. read & study about it properly first there are proofs present of everything,the Mughals destroyed the history first & then west termed it as mythology. If you can't respect someone atleast don't do a mockery
@@swattdeeds the belief that wind is stronger is probably due to the fact that wind can carry things that have mass despite being formless, not to mention if u fill a body with air it expands and becomes stronger. I'm not sure abt this tho.
8:07 Bhim got the super strength equal to strength of a 100 elephants from the Nagas. Once in his childhood his cousins tried to drown him to death but was saved by Nagas and then he was given the strength.
Shiva getting angry is not just because he lost his temper but it's all his divine play. The real reason for Elephant Head is A demon King '' Gajasura '' asks LORD Shiva a boon that he should always be with Lord Shiva forever. So in the story of Gajasura , he will become an elephant and lives in a forest. So the elephant which got it's head taken is all by its wish as it is Gajasura's boon to be with Lord shiva but in form of Ganesha. So he didn't cut his head out of anger but Shiva already knows anyway he can bring child back to life. So what happened here is ONE SHOT TWO BIRDS. And even the mouse that Ganesha rides is also a demon called '' Musheekasura '', a great devotee of Goddess Durga who out of greed drinks the amrita by stealing some of it. But he will be defeated ( not killed because de drank amrita, he is immortal ) by Ganesha and he will learn lesson and then blessed by Durga to become a companion of Ganesha. Even Musheekasura's wife will also become a stool ( Furniture ) that ganesha will keep his leg on and always will be beside Musheka the mouse because they are a couple.
I wanted to point some stuff out here, you were mostly right about what u said, Nakula was the one who could talk to animals and Sahadeva could see the future, sahadeva knew everything but had a condition to his power that he cant tell anyone what he knew about. Not to mention, Nakula was the only one worthy of using Asi after Drona, a sword made by Brahma himself so Drona gifted it to him. 1) Wind is connected to the strength because of few reasons, there were a few beliefs in hindu mythology that mountains used to float until indra struck them down, and another thing is, you can fill a body with air and make it stronger or bigger but you cant fill it with earth and expect the same result, prolly it was centered around this fact. eg: a balloon 2) Yudhishtira had more uses than being just wise and just, he apparently was the brother who knew languages that were even extinct, he also knew much more about maya or the illusionary magic often used by demons way more than the other brothers, he was also the best in spearmanship.
Thank you for providing more detailed info. It is much appreciated. Yudhisthira it's just my personal opinion.I wanted him to be a badass because his Dad being YAMMA. Also him being wise and just was highlighted and his gambling thing ruined that rep so it was easy to make fun of😅 You can give reasons for wind providing strength, also even in weightlifting breathing plays a huge part. It's just to me the earth/mountains seem like a better representation for strength and the wind being symbol for freedom and being untameable. I also saw your Dhrona comment, for me even the way he was taught to me did not paint a good picture of him.
@@swattdeeds Makes sense, I don't like Drona much either ways. He was a biased teacher if anything. I understand why u feel Yudhishtira should've been more badass but it was kind of realistic for him to be mediocre considering if he was strong, he would just be another bhishma, an OP character who follows dharma no matter what. Though Yudhish's gambling thing can be forgiven because law that time stated than when challenged for gambling or war, a king can't refuse but eventually yudish did feel like a greedy man trying to win back what he lost because after the first round, he could've left. Prolly the writers felt the need to prove that one does not need to be strong or skilled to be a good leader through Yudish. Also it's notable that despite actual Mahabharat humanizing protags with flaws and antags with goods, the modern day depictions still somehow make it very single minded. For eg: the fact that yudhish could've left after the first round isn't shown, duryodhan's political awareness and his kind heartedness towards the poor and the rishis isnt shown ( he was actually known to be a good potential king for the throne by the citizens, his anger, jealousy and hate for the pandavas made him a cruel man ), Bhima bullying and breaking the bones of Duryodhan's brothers when they were kids isnt shown. Such a shame that modern character building is inferior to ancient texts. PS: Sorry for the text wall, dont see alot of hindu mythology videos, so i got a little excited. Nanri from a fellow tamilian for taking the time to read this.
@@mythicalsoulz4709 I couldn't agree more, they do not show any good qualities of Duryodhana or show the layers of the character's backstory he was just shown black and white pure evil. I've seen an old movie where his friendship with Karna was flushed out more but in the new series they didn't even focus on that. It's my pleasure reading insightful comments I appreciate it fellow Tamila🙏 😊
8:45 was the perfect opportunity to show a Toph/aang clip from Last Airbender. Specifically when aang tried and failed to move a boulder with airbending
I totally forgot to mention Arjun as you said was not the one who shunned Karna. Although it was not Dronacharya who denied to teach Karna based on his cast. Fun-fact, He taught both Arjun and Karna together. He didn't discriminate between them. The only reason why people say Dronacharya refused to teach Karna, was when it was time for Dronacharya to teach his students (Karna, Aswasthtama and Arjun) how to use 'Brahmastra'. Surely Karna was a talented student/archer but from childhood he was jealous of Arjun so much that for Karna, competition with Arjun for best archer was not a mere friendly-rivalry, but an eyesore for Karna. And since Dronacharya was the teacher/guru who taught them from childhood and raised them as father in gurukul, he observed Karna and Arjun for having potential to be the best archer/warrior. But with time be saw that there was no end to the jealousy of Karna towards Arjun, which is the worst trait a nobel warrior with the power to use such potent weapon called 'Brahmastra' could have. As in jealousy he could just destroy the whole world with such weapon. So when it was time to teach about 'Brahmastra' he refused to teach it to Karna saying that even after so many years Karna still haven't managed to control his emotions/temper/jealous-nature, making him unworthy of being given the knowledge of Brahmastra. When people say he refused to teach Karna solely based on his caste is just bogus. Based on exact reason, Dronacharya didn't teach the full use of 'Brahmastra' to his own son. When he observed his son to be not really worthy of holding power of Brahmastra, he refused to give full knowledge about Brahmastra to his own son too.
Drona was unfair towards Eklavya BUT because Arjun was his favorite student and NOT because Eklavya was a hunter , infact Eklavya was NOT FROM THE HUNTER CLAN his father Hiranyadhanus was the COMMANDER of the most powerful king of the period, Jarasandha and Ekalavya himself served under King Jarasandha's army as GENRAL and the time dron asked him to cut his thumb was the time where elkavya and his father were WORKING WITH HUNTERS to solve a certain problem , hence Elkavya was dressed and remained as a hunter during that time. Not saying he was right having a favorite when he was a guru , but the reason general people know is severly wrong........
@@roshanbehera3332 no Drona even trained Dhristadyumna and his own son Ashwatthama. He refused to train Eklavya since Eklavya was much more talented than Arjuna and he had already promised to make Arjuna the best archer of that yuga, tho it is unknown if his promise was kept due to various reasons. 1) Eklavya lived in that yuga until Krishna finally killed him for a different reason. 2) Karna and Bhishma were also equated to 2 Maharathi, the same rank as Arjuna. 3) Krishna had already mastered all the weapons and Krishna's sons were also extremely formidable. 4) Though Drona is equated to one maharathi, his son upon getting angry can change his rank from 1 maharathi to 1 mahamaharathi due to being a partial incarnation of shiva. Sadly for Kauravas, Ashwatthama was actually very calm and never got angry, in the whole war, he only got angry at the end but Krishna was there to counter him.
To your point as to why Bhima's dad is the wind god, I believe (correct me if i'm wrong) that it comes from an association of earth with traits such as femininity and peace (Bhoomi devi, and her daughter Sita, Parvati, and various others). I could be very wrong here, but this does seem to be a trend in other cultures (very explicitly in China but various cultures have an Earth mother archetype)
You are correct! Bhuma Devi is mainly known for being a symbol of femininity, a caring mother, peace, and a bearer of great burdens. But this has always bugged me, strength should be on that list of traits.
As far as I'm concerned, Wind Gave Bhim Super Strength not because the Wind is Strong, but because the Wind is the Father of Hanuman. I know it's not Mythologically accurate but it's my personal Headcanon. I'd rather say I'm the Brother of the literal Demon Monkey Warrior God rather than say I'm the Son of the Wind
The wind destroys everything eventually. The wind will never actually lose; and can’t be outright destroyed, so that gives it a better attachment to strength than the Earth that can be destroyed by… just about anything at varying speeds now that I think about
Earth is more associated with power, because once used as a weapon, it becomes one of the deadliest weapons used by man before forging metal became common.
Water is adaptability, Lightning is speed, and fire is vitality/destruction ( Just like a living being, it won’t stop until you kill it or it has nothing to sustain itself ) At least that’s how I see it
It can be vacuumed and if the temperature drops the ingredients inside the air will solidified. But I get your point earth is not indestructible. But don't you thin wind should symbolise speed or being weightless or free There's a line that comes to mind "Be like the wind let nothing weigh you down"
@@swattdeeds Lightning is much faster than the wind, doesn’t really have a weight when compared to other elements besides fire, and can’t be stopped from doing whatever it wants to do. …And when you really think about it, that phrase applies to lightning, not wind, because wind can be weighed down by gravity (which is why we have an atmosphere) and its own temperature. Meanwhile lightning takes gravity as a suggestion instead of a fact of life; lightning has more freedom symbolism than wind
@@swattdeeds Yep Even one of his other name is "Ashutosh" Meaning he is the one who is very easy to please. He is also known as "Bholenaath" Meaning the lord who is very calm. And if he gets angry because of you, you surely crossed the boundaries long ago.
Love this video. But gotta clear up some myths about Drona being unfair to Karna and Arjuna. First of all.. Karna wasn't a lower caste fellow. He was a Suta. Which simple meant that his father was a Kshatriya (warriors and kings) and his mother was a Brahmin (priests, scientists and teachers). And Karna was there, learning all arts and sciences alongside Arjuna and other princes. He just wasn't given opportunity to demonstrate his skills in a tournament for Princes.. because although he was more skilled than Arjuna, HE WASN'T A PRINCE. And about Ekalavya.. well, he was not of lower caste either. He was the son of Magadha king's General. He learnt his archery skill from secretly observing Drona.. which is basically theft. So when finally met Drona and revealed to him how he learnt archery and asked Drona what he could give him as fee, Drona asks for Ekalavya's thumb, which is fair, cause it's both the fee for the skills Ekalavya stole from Drona.. and also his punishment. Before you say anything about me being of higher caste.. I am literally Vishwakarma, which is usually considered a lower caste in modern India. Thanks.
I'm glad you liked my video I'm not aware of Morden cast system and I don't really like to bring it up.😊 Although Karna's real parents were a god and a princess but the ones who raised him were a Charioteer family. This played a major part in his lore atleast that's how I know of it Drona used the fee as an excuse to cripple Ekalaivan. I admit I'm not too familiar with Ekalaivan's backstory and heritage. His thumb incident was the only thing focused in school that also came up in both religion and tamil language subjects. In both it was mentioned as he was from the hunter tribe (prince maybe but still of the hunter tribe.) I also remember Drona was pissed because he also hurt his dog😅 as well but mostly he feared his talent, and because of the rules where someone from the hunter tribe shouldn't learn the power archery also he was better than Arjunan Drona's best student. But at the end Ekalyvan did archery anyway even without his thumb so good for him.
@@swattdeeds bro stop giving casteist side into it. Atleast know full story. Eklavya was a hunter and tribesman from a clan which excelled in bow craft. He wanted a teacher to know more what he already knows. And the the teacher's importance is really regarded at upmost importance in Hinduism. So he went to drona, as he was known as the best teacher in the world. And proposed to him to make him his student. Or accept him. But drona promised Arjun that he will always be his top students and also favouritism. He declined to accept him. And made a bet if he surprises him or show him something that can make him as worthy of his student. Eklavya didn't get hurt by this. But instead made a statue of guru dron and practiced in front of it as thinking as of him. Some time later he became best student of drona without his direct help. So he went to drona to prove his skills to guru dron. But after showcasing guru drona was surprised and admired him. But he was also bounded by a promise from Arjun there will be no Archer better than him. So he demanded his index thumb inform his guru dakshina or fee. And eklavya without a hunch tore his fingers apart. Later Mahabharata part. He's mentioned as taking part in the war too
Also Drona promised Arjun he would make him the best archer of his Yuga. He saw Karn and Ekalavya had equal potential maybe even more. To keep his promise, he refused to teach Karn and used fee as an excuse to cripple Ekalavya
I love your editing bro 2:20 lord's Shiva need therapy 3:25 yes pretty much all of you my lord. 4:30 he's name is a ekalavya bro 5:55 😂😂😂🤣😂 6:30 no it's not? I thought it is 7:46 if he knows something like a tricking him he could say something right. 8:08 well can you live without any wind or Air bro.....?
I'm glad you liked it 😊 I liked the time stamps you put in those are great 😅🤣 I'm an immortal being that does not need air, food, sleep etc 😅🤣😂 I get your point and I know how important air is but it's the super strength bit I wanted to pointed out. I've been asking why the wind god popping out super strong kids since I first learned he was Hanuman's dad😅 since I was a kid everyone'S been trying argue air on the face hits harder than a rock to the face 😆
Well dronacharya was also the teacher of karna and he did not teach him knowledge of devine weapons becouse his jealousy towards Arjun. And karna got to participate in a compilation with Arjun where Arjun defeated him , and that same compilation karna introduced him self as a student of dronacharya and that competition held between students of dronacharya . Well read Mahabharata
And about Eklavya his father Hiranyadhanu was the chief commander of Jarasandh ( killed by Bheem ) who was enemy of Hastinapur so Dronacharya did not want to make his enemy kingdom powerfull . Later Aklvya attacked on mathura and killed by lord Krishna and his son fought alongside Kourvas .
@@swattdeeds He learnt the basics from Drona but Drona refused to give him astra knowledge for the same reason Drona made Eklavya cut his thumb off. He promised Arjun that he would make him the best archer, so he just removed the ''talent'' part from Eklavya and the ''knowledge'' part from Karna but Karna went to Parashurama and got astra knowledge, making this strategy of Drona fail badly. Heck, at one point even Krishna calls Karna a better archer but he does this only once in the war, some people are in the opinion that he did this to motivate Arjuna, some that he did this to honor Karna sacrificing his armor while others believe Karna is actually superior. Nobody can know for sure since Bhishma, Karna and Arjuna all belonged to similar power levels which is equated to being able to fight 2 Maharathi.
@@mythicalsoulz4709 But we do know who was stronger, in the Mahabharat it talks about battles between Karn and Arjun multiple times before the their Final War and in all of them Arjun won matter of fact other characters defeated him easily. One example being Bhim as well as another being the Gandharvas who made Karn run away while Arjun defeated them and rescued Duryodhan. Also you're wrong about the reasons for them not learning from Guru Drona, first Karna was dined because he wasn't able to control his emotions which is very important in learning Divine Weapons that's why even Guru Drona's son didn't get all the knowledge. Second Eklavya was denied because he was a Prince of his own kingdom ie His father came to Drona when he heard he was teaching the princes but Drona refused because their kingdom was in an friend of Magadh enemy of the princes. When Eklavya died he was fighting Krishna as a King as well as other allies of Magadh to avenge Magadh King.
3:55 when in the world did this happen😭😭. I know its just for fun, but it was Karna who was adamant on murdering the Pandavas as a kid with his dear evil friend Duryodhana, this has little to do with casteism lmao
I do have to point out that different regions have their own take on the story. I did mention that in another Hindu video which I will share the link to the time stamp is 19.50 and the link is directed to it. th-cam.com/video/-1g0HoWghZI/w-d-xo.html He was adamant in fighting the Pandavas and defiantly set on defeating Arjun, and in the story I am familiar with Karna's resentment was highly influenced by the fact that he wasn't allowed to learn archery due to his birth cast (even though he is actually a son of god and only the adopted son of a charioteer)
If you read about karn you will find that he wasn't shunned oit by anyone sutputra wasn't an insult mnay kings at that time were sutputra and even he was aprince when he was raised up ,he was raised nicely.Overall he was a good person (except the fact that he called Draupati a vaisha meaning whore in specific way) but his jealousy for Arjun was root cause of Mahabharat ,even Shakuni Mama was like give Pandavs five villages when Shree Krishna came us messenger for Pandavs to Duryodhan and requested five villages in exchange for The Indraprastha but Karn made Duryodhan reject this request made a promise to Duryodhan that he would defeat Arjun and ultimately defeat Pandavs .Even then he lost to Arjun twice and retreated from a fight with Bheem and also retreated form a fight from Abhimanyu,Arjun's 16 yr old son.
Didn't he become royal after Duryodhana made him to be? You could be right about Sutaputra not being an insult but the narrative I know, he was not allowed to learn (superpower) archery or compete with royalty. He shunned by his birth (eventhough he was truly a son of the sungod)I know he once lost to Bheeman but not to Arjunan. They're duels were usually even until the end fight where Krishna/ Indran did some stuff. I know he called Draupatai a whore but to be honest she said the wrong thing as well at Suyambharam but that's just my personal take. I wouldn't call him jealous of Arjunan's skill, he was more jealous about his privilege. He did side with his friend and supported him in things that he shouldn't have and erged him on but Mahabharatam is a good complex story where you could make case for either side and talk about Karna was just being loyal or Duryodhana's childhood where he was neglected by Beeshma and spoiled by Sakuni. It's a good complex story. Karnan is my favourite character so of course I have my bias😊
About the head the reason why they had to put another head is becoz a universe created by bhrama has a law that once something is cut off from the original body it can never be reattached completely without consequences. If Shiva had attached the head it wouldn't work the way it's supposed to work.
@@swattdeeds The great trinity Bhrama , Vishnu, Shiv apart from their individual responsibilities they also are responsible for maintenance of stability they ensure that universe runs smoothly. Once Suray dev / the sun god was filled with arrogance that it's him who runs everything, that it's his light that continues life he forgot that his light comes from Shri Narayan 🥰❤️ aka Vishnu. Surya wanted people to supremely only worship him so teach everyone a lesson he one day decided not to rise in the sky. Lord Shiva got to know about the incident and went to Surya and tried to talk sense into him but he didn't listen and refused to rise , Lord Shiva then warned him that if continues to be arrogant then he will be punished. Still Surya stuck to his arrogance which angered Shiva and therefore he took his trident and stuck him with it. Surya fell unconscious immediately. Seeing this Maharishi Kashyap thought that his great son Surya had died so he, in pain and anger cursed Lord Shiva that one day he would kill his son the same way he killed Surya. Slowly Surya gained consciousness and asked for forgiveness then Lord Shiva explained to Maharishi that he only killed his arrogance with his trident and didn't harm his son. The curse resulted in Lord Shiva beheading Ganesha.

Wind is a very strong element The ground on face value seems to be strong element and it is. But the catch is in short term yes a wind won't tremble a mountain but in long terms wind can literally carve the mountains as it pleases. For example The Grand Canyon was carved the way it is today by water and wind. Not to mention on plantes such as Jupiter and other exo-planets wind blows so fast that fastest wind on earth is just a breeze compared to their monumental speeds. So yes Wi
2:25 also, the story isn't meant to be taken literally. It's important to understand the lesson on a metaphorical plane. Ganesha, or Vinayaka, is made up of the dirt of his mother, so representing negative qualities such as arrogance and ignorance, which display in his behaviour opposite to Shiva. This is why Shiva had to destroy his head, where all of the negativity resided. It's also worth considering that Ganesha's creation was only brought about with Uma's, or Shakti's part of the process. Since Purusha, or Shiva, had no part in this union, the child was automatically incomplete, which was rectified by Shiva when he contributed to the revival of his son.
1. If the wind speed is higher then they also destroy the mountain and any big stone 2nd karna was not select bcz of cast dronacharya is a servant of hastinapur he said himself a teacher not a guru how can he teach from outside to kings people ??
1. If the rock is more thicker and bigger it won't be 😅 so far the winds on earth ain't taking out mountains. Also would use a big fan to break something or a stone that can fit your hand. 2. Being a teacher/guru comes with more responsibilities not just being loyal to the kingdom
@@swattdeeds 1. hey if asteroids and other material come in contact with the earth's atmosphere their size decreases By the law of friction every stone is destroyed by wind 2. There is different between शिक्षक and guru He was a teacher who gave knowledge only to the prince bcz he sold his knowledge to the kingdom. his only responsibility is to teach pandav and 100 korab In old times people didn't change their word that's why mahabharat happened
@@aakashrai6820 1. Not every rock, earth has been hit by asteroids. If it's BIG enough to not to burn up on entry. Our atmosphere is a protector but it's not the only thing that plays apart there's velocity, gravity but again this all goes to shit if the damn thing is too big. Also why are we looking at this in this in an elaborate way? I'm just talking about super strength. Let's just say you want to bust through a door. Your right hand is made out of wind (just work with me) your left hand is made out rock which would you use to break the door? 2. I agree with you there those character flaws is what led to the war. That's why Mahabharatam is good there's soo much to learn from the character's good qualities and bad ones. I didn't like Drona, for me he was unlikeable character and not a good teacher.
you'll have to read a bit more my friend I think, the wind god aka Vayu is associated with strength because air is also prana( life force) thus all of his children (Bheem , Hanuman) have immense strength besides yeah the sketches were good but they are sketches , meant to be funny , don't propagate exactly the right info
@@swattdeeds I agree. I think Vayu being associated with strength comes restrospectively due to his sons and not the other way around. Because Hanuman and Bhema has other reasons for being strong. Like Hanuman was strong as much as Vayu should be, but he become the strongest after he attempted to eat the sun, got struck down by Indra, then to placate Vayu every god granted him boons. Similarly for Bheema, he was strong in his childhood, but he became more strong after he was poisoned then got saved by the Snake king and was given a potion that granted him strength of 1000 elephants. So I believe your analysis is kind of correct. They were moderately powerful as being the son of Vayu, but actually became even stronger due to the boons they got later.
@@samarendra109 Just by elements I would've preferred Bhuma Devi to be the symbol for strength and endurance. I did wanted to highlight Hanuman and Bheeman's strength boosts but I didn't use them because I couldn't think of any funny clips to insert in them😅
@@swattdeeds Few thing, Anjana and Kunti were both women so couldn't have conceived from another women. And I think in Hindu myths the story of Bhumi Devi is very less and she is often portrayed as a kind and caring mother. So I think it makes sense that she is never portrayed as symbol of strength, because her caring nature takes the fore front.
Bruh, so many people think Karn was discriminated against bcz of his lower caste that misconception comes from serials. If you read the Mahabharata from its original author maharishi ved vyas , Karn was taught by guru drona like every other Pandav and kaurav but was not selected for learning brahmastra and that's why he went to lord parshuram. He was a soot putra which in Sanskrit means a child born from a bramhin and a kshatriya. He was not discriminated against in any way that's stuff comes from the serials and other local regional spinoffs of Mahabharata. Also guru drona didn't discriminated against Eklavya. He demanded his thumb bcz Eklavya's father was a general in jarasandh's army and jarasandh was a enemy of kururashtra. Being a teacher of kururashtra it was his duty to not teach his ways to any one who would use it to harm kururashtra in any way. Hope it clears you misconceptions.
"He was not discriminated against in any way that stuff comes from the serials and other local regional spinoffs of Mahabharata." This could be true I only know one of the Tamil version
@@swattdeeds that's what I said, this stuff was addwd later by local authors . And thus in every region there's a little bit different version of this great epic. But in the real Mahabharata there is not even a single mention of discrimination on the basis of caste
I disagree, I beleive the wind is stronger that stone, mountains and beaches are eroded by wind and water. While stone has visible form and is sturdy, air is molecular and fluid, the physical form of a stone can be destroyed but the winds can not be broken. Repelled but never destroyed
4:28 alright. You've got to educate yourself here a bit, not just you, but the majority of people who attribute Karna's "mistreatment" to casteism. Drona, the guru of the Kauravas and the Pandavas, also taught Karna. The point where he stopped appeasing the boy was when he insisted on gaining knowledge of the astras. Drona grew suspicious pf him here, since Karna only seemed to desire this knowledge to be greater than Arjuna in battle, so it was not right to support this ego of his.
@@swattdeeds good to know! The version that I'm referring to is what Vyasa wrote in his Mahabharata, as far as I'm aware. It's just tv serials and retellings over time that alter the original quite a bit and lead to wrong understanding of the events narrated.
@@kaushiksunapu5657 I think it's a general thing with religious stories that they tend to alternate as they spread. I wouldn't call that a wrong understanding but instead altered to fit their own region's cultural takes. In the Tamil version of the story that I am aware of (there are many Tamil ones too 😅), Karna is often portrayed as a heroic figure who is discriminated against because of his low caste background. This theme of social injustice and discrimination against lower castes is a recurring one in Tamil literature and culture. The Tamil retelling of the story of Karna thus serves as a way to highlight these social issues and challenge the prevailing caste-based hierarchy.
I think you mean the clip in 2.20. It's from a series-opening I found on TH-cam. I am not sure if that same clip exists but there is this clip th-cam.com/video/n4rfTn4EAlY/w-d-xo.html
Actually Karna was a student of Drona. Karna was shunned by Drona for wanting to learn the Brahmastra because he said he wanted to use it on to Arjuna.
1. I'm a Tamil Hindu Sri Lankan 2. Mahabharatham is full of characters that have flaws and good traits. Right now Kunti and Gandhari come to mind. They were both irresponsible mothers Kunti for abandoning Karnan and Gandhari for blindfolding herself and not raising her sons right.
@@swattdeeds 1. Because I know AND understand that the majority of Sri Lankans are Buddhists and overall Sri Lanka is a predominantly Buddhist country/island nation. 2. Gandhari blindfolding herself how exactly?😕 And what were the reasons for Kunti abandoning Karnan?
@@Black-And-WhiteWorldview8488 Gandhari blindfolded herself so she could share her husband's way of life. (He was blind). It is also shown as a noble wife's choice but by doing that she couldn't pay full attention to her children's lives and how they are being badly influenced by her brother Shakuni. Kunti was young and unmarried when she had Karnan which she did by accident. Kunti had invoked the Sun God's blessing using a special mantra given to her by a Sage. This resulted in the birth of Karnan. Given the social norms of that time, Kunti faced the challenge of being an unmarried mother, which could have led to societal judgment and stigma. Fearing the consequences, she placed the newborn Karna in a basket and set him adrift on the river.

@@swattdeeds Stop calling it mythology brown saheb. Stop this inferiority complex. We have different lens to look into things. It's called Vedic lens. Again i am telling you don't subvert our people for mere view's. And tell your atheist nalla friend that stay away from our culture and civilization. We don't need foreigner to teach our culture.
which school did he go to lol... Hinduism is not taught in schools except maybe some stories here and there... also आ i.e., "aa" and अ "a" sound is two different sounds in hindi/ sanskrit/ and other related language... it fucking grinds my gears when an Indian mispronounces it.... its Pandav not Pandavaas, its Arjun not Arjunaa, (If you add "aa" sound then it becomes feminine form of that words, so Shivaa is feminine form of Shiv, Arjunaa is feminine form of Arjun, Karnaa is feminine form of Karna (Which btw is completely fine as as per Hinduism, both feminine and masculine is present in every organism and Devine)) Good video otherwise... आ i.e., the "aa" sound and अ i.e., the "a" sound is vowel btw.
I'm glad you liked my video 😊 I went to Hindu college in Sri Lanka. In public schools religion is a must subject you must learn it from grade 1 to 11. Also in Tamil it is pronounced like that(Pandavar). The world is a big place.
I think the earth should be more on endurance powers, or harden powers, or something that makes You Have an extremly high defense, it would go more with the proverb calling the wind's attacks strong while the mountain endures all
I understand your point in the metaphorical sense. That is a thing in Hindu mythology where they do state that Poomah devi is known for her kindness and patience. She endures all that happens in the world. But to me, I feel like she should have been endurance and strength at the same time.
So the warrior cast, priest cast are not mentioned in our mythology? We have moved passed those things and it's good but it was a part of the narrative in Karna's story arch. It's good because that was one of the lessons of his story, a person shouldn't be judged by his birth and family status. The best thing about Hindu stories are these complex world, and characters with flaws and mistakes. They teach amazing lessons and it's admired by many.
@@swattdeeds Again mythology 🤦. Are you mad? What caste are you talking about? It's called Varna system. And we don't worship God okay. We have a word called "parbrahma" Google it.

Don't underestimate the wind . Yeah wind from Earth may not do much to mountains but other planets . It definitely can .
The winds Neptune are no joke but I think there are some heavy solid rocky planets too.
@@swattdeeds the belief that wind is stronger is probably due to the fact that wind can carry things that have mass despite being formless, not to mention if u fill a body with air it expands and becomes stronger. I'm not sure abt this tho.
8:07 Bhim got the super strength equal to strength of a 100 elephants from the Nagas. Once in his childhood his cousins tried to drown him to death but was saved by Nagas and then he was given the strength.
He got strength of 10 elephants not 100.

Shiva getting angry is not just because he lost his temper but it's all his divine play.
The real reason for Elephant Head is
A demon King '' Gajasura '' asks LORD Shiva a boon that he should always be with Lord Shiva forever.
So in the story of Gajasura , he will become an elephant and lives in a forest.
So the elephant which got it's head taken is all by its wish as it is Gajasura's boon to be with Lord shiva but in form of Ganesha.
So he didn't cut his head out of anger but Shiva already knows anyway he can bring child back to life. So what happened here is ONE SHOT TWO BIRDS.
And even the mouse that Ganesha rides is also a demon called '' Musheekasura '', a great devotee of Goddess Durga who out of greed drinks the amrita by stealing some of it. But he will be defeated ( not killed because de drank amrita, he is immortal ) by Ganesha and he will learn lesson and then blessed by Durga to become a companion of Ganesha.
Even Musheekasura's wife will also become a stool ( Furniture ) that ganesha will keep his leg on and always will be beside Musheka the mouse because they are a couple.
I'm here because of the mythology guy
Tnx for Clearfing things up 😄
I wanted to point some stuff out here, you were mostly right about what u said, Nakula was the one who could talk to animals and Sahadeva could see the future, sahadeva knew everything but had a condition to his power that he cant tell anyone what he knew about. Not to mention, Nakula was the only one worthy of using Asi after Drona, a sword made by Brahma himself so Drona gifted it to him.
1) Wind is connected to the strength because of few reasons, there were a few beliefs in hindu mythology that mountains used to float until indra struck them down, and another thing is, you can fill a body with air and make it stronger or bigger but you cant fill it with earth and expect the same result, prolly it was centered around this fact. eg: a balloon
2) Yudhishtira had more uses than being just wise and just, he apparently was the brother who knew languages that were even extinct, he also knew much more about maya or the illusionary magic often used by demons way more than the other brothers, he was also the best in spearmanship.
Thank you for providing more detailed info. It is much appreciated.
Yudhisthira it's just my personal opinion.I wanted him to be a badass because his Dad being YAMMA. Also him being wise and just was highlighted and his gambling thing ruined that rep so it was easy to make fun of😅
You can give reasons for wind providing strength, also even in weightlifting breathing plays a huge part. It's just to me the earth/mountains seem like a better representation for strength and the wind being symbol for freedom and being untameable.
I also saw your Dhrona comment, for me even the way he was taught to me did not paint a good picture of him.
@@swattdeeds Makes sense, I don't like Drona much either ways. He was a biased teacher if anything. I understand why u feel Yudhishtira should've been more badass but it was kind of realistic for him to be mediocre considering if he was strong, he would just be another bhishma, an OP character who follows dharma no matter what.
Though Yudhish's gambling thing can be forgiven because law that time stated than when challenged for gambling or war, a king can't refuse but eventually yudish did feel like a greedy man trying to win back what he lost because after the first round, he could've left.
Prolly the writers felt the need to prove that one does not need to be strong or skilled to be a good leader through Yudish. Also it's notable that despite actual Mahabharat humanizing protags with flaws and antags with goods, the modern day depictions still somehow make it very single minded. For eg: the fact that yudhish could've left after the first round isn't shown, duryodhan's political awareness and his kind heartedness towards the poor and the rishis isnt shown ( he was actually known to be a good potential king for the throne by the citizens, his anger, jealousy and hate for the pandavas made him a cruel man ), Bhima bullying and breaking the bones of Duryodhan's brothers when they were kids isnt shown. Such a shame that modern character building is inferior to ancient texts.
PS: Sorry for the text wall, dont see alot of hindu mythology videos, so i got a little excited. Nanri from a fellow tamilian for taking the time to read this.
@@mythicalsoulz4709 I couldn't agree more, they do not show any good qualities of Duryodhana or show the layers of the character's backstory he was just shown black and white pure evil.

I totally forgot to mention
Arjun as you said was not the one who shunned Karna.
Although it was not Dronacharya who denied to teach Karna based on his cast.
Fun-fact, He taught both Arjun and Karna together. He didn't discriminate between them.
The only reason why people say Dronacharya refused to teach Karna, was when it was time for Dronacharya to teach his students (Karna, Aswasthtama and Arjun) how to use 'Brahmastra'.
Surely Karna was a talented student/archer but from childhood he was jealous of Arjun so much that for Karna, competition with Arjun for best archer was not a mere friendly-rivalry, but an eyesore for Karna.
And since Dronacharya was the teacher/guru who taught them from childhood and raised them as father in gurukul, he observed Karna and Arjun for having potential to be the best archer/warrior.
But with time be saw that there was no end to the jealousy of Karna towards Arjun, which is the worst trait a nobel warrior with the power to use such potent weapon called 'Brahmastra' could have. As in jealousy he could just destroy the whole world with such weapon.
So when it was time to teach about 'Brahmastra' he refused to teach it to Karna saying that even after so many years Karna still haven't managed to control his emotions/temper/jealous-nature, making him unworthy of being given the knowledge of Brahmastra.
When people say he refused to teach Karna solely based on his caste is just bogus.
Based on exact reason, Dronacharya didn't teach the full use of 'Brahmastra' to his own son.
When he observed his son to be not really worthy of holding power of Brahmastra, he refused to give full knowledge about Brahmastra to his own son too.
Drona was unfair towards Eklavya BUT because Arjun was his favorite student and NOT because Eklavya was a hunter , infact Eklavya was NOT FROM THE HUNTER CLAN his father Hiranyadhanus was the COMMANDER of the most powerful king of the period, Jarasandha and Ekalavya himself served under King Jarasandha's army as GENRAL and the time dron asked him to cut his thumb was the time where elkavya and his father were WORKING WITH HUNTERS to solve a certain problem , hence Elkavya was dressed and remained as a hunter during that time. Not saying he was right having a favorite when he was a guru , but the reason general people know is severly wrong........
I think Drona promised to train the Kauravas and Pandavas only , that's why he didn't trained Eklavya.
What are you saying?
@@dkdk5486 that karn and Eklavya did were not refused to study under dron because of their castes and Eklavya was also a Kshatriya
@@roshanbehera3332 no Drona even trained Dhristadyumna and his own son Ashwatthama. He refused to train Eklavya since Eklavya was much more talented than Arjuna and he had already promised to make Arjuna the best archer of that yuga, tho it is unknown if his promise was kept due to various reasons.
1) Eklavya lived in that yuga until Krishna finally killed him for a different reason.
2) Karna and Bhishma were also equated to 2 Maharathi, the same rank as Arjuna.
3) Krishna had already mastered all the weapons and Krishna's sons were also extremely formidable.
4) Though Drona is equated to one maharathi, his son upon getting angry can change his rank from 1 maharathi to 1 mahamaharathi due to being a partial incarnation of shiva. Sadly for Kauravas, Ashwatthama was actually very calm and never got angry, in the whole war, he only got angry at the end but Krishna was there to counter him.
To your point as to why Bhima's dad is the wind god, I believe (correct me if i'm wrong) that it comes from an association of earth with traits such as femininity and peace (Bhoomi devi, and her daughter Sita, Parvati, and various others). I could be very wrong here, but this does seem to be a trend in other cultures (very explicitly in China but various cultures have an Earth mother archetype)
You are correct! Bhuma Devi is mainly known for being a symbol of femininity, a caring mother, peace, and a bearer of great burdens. But this has always bugged me, strength should be on that list of traits.
I definetly wouldn't mind a part 2.
And than a TH-cam friendship was born hope it may last a 1000 year
Earns my Subscription.
Also, the Wind gave super-strength to irritate Earth.
As far as I'm concerned, Wind Gave Bhim Super Strength not because the Wind is Strong, but because the Wind is the Father of Hanuman.
I know it's not Mythologically accurate but it's my personal Headcanon.
I'd rather say I'm the Brother of the literal Demon Monkey Warrior God rather than say I'm the Son of the Wind
nope....This is not now how it works....
The wind destroys everything eventually. The wind will never actually lose; and can’t be outright destroyed, so that gives it a better attachment to strength than the Earth that can be destroyed by… just about anything at varying speeds now that I think about
Earth is more associated with power, because once used as a weapon, it becomes one of the deadliest weapons used by man before forging metal became common.
Water is adaptability, Lightning is speed, and fire is vitality/destruction ( Just like a living being, it won’t stop until you kill it or it has nothing to sustain itself )
At least that’s how I see it
It can be vacuumed and if the temperature drops the ingredients inside the air will solidified. But I get your point earth is not indestructible. But don't you thin wind should symbolise speed or being weightless or free
There's a line that comes to mind
"Be like the wind let nothing weigh you down"
@@swattdeeds Lightning is much faster than the wind, doesn’t really have a weight when compared to other elements besides fire, and can’t be stopped from doing whatever it wants to do.
…And when you really think about it, that phrase applies to lightning, not wind, because wind can be weighed down by gravity (which is why we have an atmosphere) and its own temperature. Meanwhile lightning takes gravity as a suggestion instead of a fact of life; lightning has more freedom symbolism than wind
3:13 Should have just gave him an elephant neck XD

The best way to put Lord Shiv's anger issue would be
He is the calmest guy/god but once he gets angry he is the most fierce.
Yup 😊 I've also heard this somewhere "he is the god of destruction but he's always seen with a smile." Compassion and power.
@@swattdeeds Yep
Even one of his other name is "Ashutosh"
Meaning he is the one who is very easy to please.
He is also known as "Bholenaath"
Meaning the lord who is very calm.
And if he gets angry because of you, you surely crossed the boundaries long ago.
Love this video.
But gotta clear up some myths about Drona being unfair to Karna and Arjuna.
First of all.. Karna wasn't a lower caste fellow. He was a Suta. Which simple meant that his father was a Kshatriya (warriors and kings) and his mother was a Brahmin (priests, scientists and teachers). And Karna was there, learning all arts and sciences alongside Arjuna and other princes. He just wasn't given opportunity to demonstrate his skills in a tournament for Princes.. because although he was more skilled than Arjuna, HE WASN'T A PRINCE.
And about Ekalavya.. well, he was not of lower caste either. He was the son of Magadha king's General. He learnt his archery skill from secretly observing Drona.. which is basically theft. So when finally met Drona and revealed to him how he learnt archery and asked Drona what he could give him as fee, Drona asks for Ekalavya's thumb, which is fair, cause it's both the fee for the skills Ekalavya stole from Drona.. and also his punishment.
Before you say anything about me being of higher caste.. I am literally Vishwakarma, which is usually considered a lower caste in modern India.
Thanks.
I'm glad you liked my video
I'm not aware of Morden cast system and I don't really like to bring it up.😊 Although Karna's real parents were a god and a princess but the ones who raised him were a Charioteer family. This played a major part in his lore atleast that's how I know of it
Drona used the fee as an excuse to cripple Ekalaivan. I admit I'm not too familiar with Ekalaivan's backstory and heritage. His thumb incident was the only thing focused in school that also came up in both religion and tamil language subjects. In both it was mentioned as he was from the hunter tribe (prince maybe but still of the hunter tribe.) I also remember Drona was pissed because he also hurt his dog😅 as well but mostly he feared his talent, and because of the rules where someone from the hunter tribe shouldn't learn the power archery also he was better than Arjunan Drona's best student. But at the end Ekalyvan did archery anyway even without his thumb so good for him.
@@swattdeeds bro stop giving casteist side into it. Atleast know full story. Eklavya was a hunter and tribesman from a clan which excelled in bow craft. He wanted a teacher to know more what he already knows. And the the teacher's importance is really regarded at upmost importance in Hinduism. So he went to drona, as he was known as the best teacher in the world. And proposed to him to make him his student. Or accept him. But drona promised Arjun that he will always be his top students and also favouritism. He declined to accept him. And made a bet if he surprises him or show him something that can make him as worthy of his student. Eklavya didn't get hurt by this. But instead made a statue of guru dron and practiced in front of it as thinking as of him. Some time later he became best student of drona without his direct help. So he went to drona to prove his skills to guru dron. But after showcasing guru drona was surprised and admired him. But he was also bounded by a promise from Arjun there will be no Archer better than him. So he demanded his index thumb inform his guru dakshina or fee. And eklavya without a hunch tore his fingers apart. Later Mahabharata part. He's mentioned as taking part in the war too
Also Drona promised Arjun he would make him the best archer of his Yuga. He saw Karn and Ekalavya had equal potential maybe even more. To keep his promise, he refused to teach Karn and used fee as an excuse to cripple Ekalavya
Thanks..good clean fun.

Well dronacharya was also the teacher of karna and he did not teach him knowledge of devine weapons becouse his jealousy towards Arjun. And karna got to participate in a compilation with Arjun where Arjun defeated him , and that same compilation karna introduced him self as a student of dronacharya and that competition held between students of dronacharya .
Well read Mahabharata
Karna was the student of Parashurama that's the version I was taught
@@swattdeeds yes he goes to parshuram for knowledge of devine weapons .
And about Eklavya his father Hiranyadhanu was the chief commander of Jarasandh ( killed by Bheem ) who was enemy of Hastinapur so Dronacharya did not want to make his enemy kingdom powerfull . Later Aklvya attacked on mathura and killed by lord Krishna and his son fought alongside Kourvas .
@@swattdeeds He learnt the basics from Drona but Drona refused to give him astra knowledge for the same reason Drona made Eklavya cut his thumb off. He promised Arjun that he would make him the best archer, so he just removed the ''talent'' part from Eklavya and the ''knowledge'' part from Karna but Karna went to Parashurama and got astra knowledge, making this strategy of Drona fail badly. Heck, at one point even Krishna calls Karna a better archer but he does this only once in the war, some people are in the opinion that he did this to motivate Arjuna, some that he did this to honor Karna sacrificing his armor while others believe Karna is actually superior. Nobody can know for sure since Bhishma, Karna and Arjuna all belonged to similar power levels which is equated to being able to fight 2 Maharathi.
@@mythicalsoulz4709 But we do know who was stronger, in the Mahabharat it talks about battles between Karn and Arjun multiple times before the their Final War and in all of them Arjun won matter of fact other characters defeated him easily. One example being Bhim as well as another being the Gandharvas who made Karn run away while Arjun defeated them and rescued Duryodhan. Also you're wrong about the reasons for them not learning from Guru Drona, first Karna was dined because he wasn't able to control his emotions which is very important in learning Divine Weapons that's why even Guru Drona's son didn't get all the knowledge. Second Eklavya was denied because he was a Prince of his own kingdom ie His father came to Drona when he heard he was teaching the princes but Drona refused because their kingdom was in an friend of Magadh enemy of the princes. When Eklavya died he was fighting Krishna as a King as well as other allies of Magadh to avenge Magadh King.
A channel recommendation from Andrew!? Nice!
Welcome!
3:55 when in the world did this happen😭😭. I know its just for fun, but it was Karna who was adamant on murdering the Pandavas as a kid with his dear evil friend Duryodhana, this has little to do with casteism lmao
I do have to point out that different regions have their own take on the story. I did mention that in another Hindu video which I will share the link to the time stamp is 19.50 and the link is directed to it.
th-cam.com/video/-1g0HoWghZI/w-d-xo.html
He was adamant in fighting the Pandavas and defiantly set on defeating Arjun, and in the story I am familiar with Karna's resentment was highly influenced by the fact that he wasn't allowed to learn archery due to his birth cast (even though he is actually a son of god and only the adopted son of a charioteer)
Bro lord hanuman is the son of lord vayu and he's the pinnacle of strength so ya connection of wind and strength is pretty much clear ✌️
If you read about karn you will find that he wasn't shunned oit by anyone sutputra wasn't an insult mnay kings at that time were sutputra and even he was aprince when he was raised up ,he was raised nicely.Overall he was a good person (except the fact that he called Draupati a vaisha meaning whore in specific way) but his jealousy for Arjun was root cause of Mahabharat ,even Shakuni Mama was like give Pandavs five villages when Shree Krishna came us messenger for Pandavs to Duryodhan and requested five villages in exchange for The Indraprastha but Karn made Duryodhan reject this request made a promise to Duryodhan that he would defeat Arjun and ultimately defeat Pandavs .Even then he lost to Arjun twice and retreated from a fight with Bheem and also retreated form a fight from Abhimanyu,Arjun's 16 yr old son.
Didn't he become royal after Duryodhana made him to be? You could be right about Sutaputra not being an insult but the narrative I know, he was not allowed to learn (superpower) archery or compete with royalty. He shunned by his birth (eventhough he was truly a son of the sungod)I know he once lost to Bheeman but not to Arjunan. They're duels were usually even until the end fight where Krishna/ Indran did some stuff.
I know he called Draupatai a whore but to be honest she said the wrong thing as well at Suyambharam but that's just my personal take.
I wouldn't call him jealous of Arjunan's skill, he was more jealous about his privilege. He did side with his friend and supported him in things that he shouldn't have and erged him on but Mahabharatam is a good complex story where you could make case for either side and talk about Karna was just being loyal or Duryodhana's childhood where he was neglected by Beeshma and spoiled by Sakuni.
It's a good complex story. Karnan is my favourite character so of course I have my bias😊
Bheem got his power in patal lok by snake god by drinking/eating some bowl of drink or food that's how he got strength of elephant
About the head the reason why they had to put another head is becoz a universe created by bhrama has a law that once something is cut off from the original body it can never be reattached completely without consequences. If Shiva had attached the head it wouldn't work the way it's supposed to work.
I see, I was told it was because it was chopped off by Shiva's trident.
The thing is Shiva actually doesn't have anger issues 😅 he knew who Ganesha was but couldn't do anything as he was cursed to kill his own child.
I've not heard that version of the story but I do know there are many versions and this one sounds interesting. How did he get cursed?
@@swattdeeds The great trinity Bhrama , Vishnu, Shiv apart from their individual responsibilities they also are responsible for maintenance of stability they ensure that universe runs smoothly. Once Suray dev / the sun god was filled with arrogance that it's him who runs everything, that it's his light that continues life he forgot that his light comes from Shri Narayan 🥰❤️ aka Vishnu. Surya wanted people to supremely only worship him so teach everyone a lesson he one day decided not to rise in the sky. Lord Shiva got to know about the incident and went to Surya and tried to talk sense into him but he didn't listen and refused to rise , Lord Shiva then warned him that if continues to be arrogant then he will be punished. Still Surya stuck to his arrogance which angered Shiva and therefore he took his trident and stuck him with it. Surya fell unconscious immediately. Seeing this Maharishi Kashyap thought that his great son Surya had died so he, in pain and anger cursed Lord Shiva that one day he would kill his son the same way he killed Surya. Slowly Surya gained consciousness and asked for forgiveness then Lord Shiva explained to Maharishi that he only killed his arrogance with his trident and didn't harm his son. The curse resulted in Lord Shiva beheading Ganesha.

Wind is a very strong element
The ground on face value seems to be strong element and it is.
But the catch is in short term yes a wind won't tremble a mountain but in long terms wind can literally carve the mountains as it pleases.
For example The Grand Canyon was carved the way it is today by water and wind.
Not to mention on plantes such as Jupiter and other exo-planets wind blows so fast that fastest wind on earth is just a breeze compared to their monumental speeds.
So yes Wi
2:25 also, the story isn't meant to be taken literally. It's important to understand the lesson on a metaphorical plane. Ganesha, or Vinayaka, is made up of the dirt of his mother, so representing negative qualities such as arrogance and ignorance, which display in his behaviour opposite to Shiva. This is why Shiva had to destroy his head, where all of the negativity resided. It's also worth considering that Ganesha's creation was only brought about with Uma's, or Shakti's part of the process. Since Purusha, or Shiva, had no part in this union, the child was automatically incomplete, which was rectified by Shiva when he contributed to the revival of his son.

2. I agree with you there those character flaws is what led to the war. That's why Mahabharatam is good there's soo much to learn from the character's good qualities and bad ones. I didn't like Drona, for me he was unlikeable character and not a good teacher.
you'll have to read a bit more my friend I think, the wind god aka Vayu is associated with strength because air is also prana( life force) thus all of his children (Bheem , Hanuman) have immense strength
besides yeah the sketches were good but they are sketches , meant to be funny , don't propagate exactly the right info
It's one of the things that doesn't sit well with me when it comes to strength I don't see the element air being symbol for it.
@@swattdeeds I agree. I think Vayu being associated with strength comes restrospectively due to his sons and not the other way around.
Because Hanuman and Bhema has other reasons for being strong. Like Hanuman was strong as much as Vayu should be, but he become the strongest after he attempted to eat the sun, got struck down by Indra, then to placate Vayu every god granted him boons.
Similarly for Bheema, he was strong in his childhood, but he became more strong after he was poisoned then got saved by the Snake king and was given a potion that granted him strength of 1000 elephants.
So I believe your analysis is kind of correct. They were moderately powerful as being the son of Vayu, but actually became even stronger due to the boons they got later.

Just by elements I would've preferred Bhuma Devi to be the symbol for strength and endurance.
I did wanted to highlight Hanuman and Bheeman's strength boosts but I didn't use them because I couldn't think of any funny clips to insert in them😅
@@swattdeeds Few thing, Anjana and Kunti were both women so couldn't have conceived from another women.
And I think in Hindu myths the story of Bhumi Devi is very less and she is often portrayed as a kind and caring mother. So I think it makes sense that she is never portrayed as symbol of strength, because her caring nature takes the fore front.
Bruh, so many people think Karn was discriminated against bcz of his lower caste that misconception comes from serials. If you read the Mahabharata from its original author maharishi ved vyas , Karn was taught by guru drona like every other Pandav and kaurav but was not selected for learning brahmastra and that's why he went to lord parshuram. He was a soot putra which in Sanskrit means a child born from a bramhin and a kshatriya. He was not discriminated against in any way that's stuff comes from the serials and other local regional spinoffs of Mahabharata. Also guru drona didn't discriminated against Eklavya. He demanded his thumb bcz Eklavya's father was a general in jarasandh's army and jarasandh was a enemy of kururashtra. Being a teacher of kururashtra it was his duty to not teach his ways to any one who would use it to harm kururashtra in any way. Hope it clears you misconceptions.
"He was not discriminated against in any way that stuff comes from the serials and other local regional spinoffs of Mahabharata." This could be true I only know one of the Tamil version
@@swattdeeds that's what I said, this stuff was addwd later by local authors . And thus in every region there's a little bit different version of this great epic. But in the real Mahabharata there is not even a single mention of discrimination on the basis of caste
I disagree, I beleive the wind is stronger that stone, mountains and beaches are eroded by wind and water. While stone has visible form and is sturdy, air is molecular and fluid, the physical form of a stone can be destroyed but the winds can not be broken. Repelled but never destroyed
U should look at the winds on neptune???mack 2
4:28 alright. You've got to educate yourself here a bit, not just you, but the majority of people who attribute Karna's "mistreatment" to casteism. Drona, the guru of the Kauravas and the Pandavas, also taught Karna. The point where he stopped appeasing the boy was when he insisted on gaining knowledge of the astras. Drona grew suspicious pf him here, since Karna only seemed to desire this knowledge to be greater than Arjuna in battle, so it was not right to support this ego of his.
You are correct! I am aware of that version and interpretation! But again different regions have their own take on the story🙂
@@swattdeeds good to know! The version that I'm referring to is what Vyasa wrote in his Mahabharata, as far as I'm aware. It's just tv serials and retellings over time that alter the original quite a bit and lead to wrong understanding of the events narrated.
@@kaushiksunapu5657 I think it's a general thing with religious stories that they tend to alternate as they spread. I wouldn't call that a wrong understanding but instead altered to fit their own region's cultural takes. In the Tamil version of the story that I am aware of (there are many Tamil ones too 😅), Karna is often portrayed as a heroic figure who is discriminated against because of his low caste background. This theme of social injustice and discrimination against lower castes is a recurring one in Tamil literature and culture. The Tamil retelling of the story of Karna thus serves as a way to highlight these social issues and challenge the prevailing caste-based hierarchy.
Hey, do you think you can tell me where you got that clip to represent Shiva’s anger?
I think you mean the clip in 2.20. It's from a series-opening I found on TH-cam. I am not sure if that same clip exists but there is this clip

Sanatan isn't mythology. It's our history and we have all the proofs.
Vayu dev both son are powerful
Actually Karna was a student of Drona. Karna was shunned by Drona for wanting to learn the Brahmastra because he said he wanted to use it on to Arjuna.
Karna was the student of Parashuram (Sixth Avatar of lord Vishnu)
@@ineedpowers5151 after Drona he went to parshuram
1. So you are Hindu and not Buddhist?
2. Any negative female characters in the Mahabharatham, so to speak?
1. I'm a Tamil Hindu Sri Lankan
2. Mahabharatham is full of characters that have flaws and good traits. Right now Kunti and Gandhari come to mind. They were both irresponsible mothers Kunti for abandoning Karnan and Gandhari for blindfolding herself and not raising her sons right.
@@swattdeeds 1. Because I know AND understand that the majority of Sri Lankans are Buddhists and overall Sri Lanka is a predominantly Buddhist country/island nation.
2. Gandhari blindfolding herself how exactly?😕 And what were the reasons for Kunti abandoning Karnan?
@@Black-And-WhiteWorldview8488 Gandhari blindfolded herself so she could share her husband's way of life. (He was blind). It is also shown as a noble wife's choice but by doing that she couldn't pay full attention to her children's lives and how they are being badly influenced by her brother Shakuni.
Kunti was young and unmarried when she had Karnan which she did by accident. Kunti had invoked the Sun God's blessing using a special mantra given to her by a Sage. This resulted in the birth of Karnan. Given the social norms of that time, Kunti faced the challenge of being an unmarried mother, which could have led to societal judgment and stigma. Fearing the consequences, she placed the newborn Karna in a basket and set him adrift on the river.
Awesome video 📷
I think srilanka should merge with India, this is the time
Our heritage culture history are interrelated ,
We can't bear to see your economic destruction,
We feel sorry
Where to find those movies?
Most of those clips you can find on TH-cam if you know what you're looking for. Like for example I searched Monica and Chandler in bed and got clip for that scene. If you can't find on TH-cam then you have to dig more on the Internet.
👍
You should work for Hi-Rez. Perhaps, the Hindu religion would have some decent representation, sir.
Bro hindu mythology is real
So you believe in Hindu gods yet have Jesus as a profile picture?
If you are a hindu you should know that difference between itihas and mythology. Don't subvert or brainwash our people man.
Every religious story weather Christian, Hindu or whatever it is categorised as mythical stories, they can't be put under historical events. Sure we can believe it as ithihas, puranam some call it as the true word of God that's up to you. Here I'm using the broad accepted term. I'm not sure how I'm brainwashing here😅
I am a Hindu by my birth and upbringing. I studied it as well since grade 1 to 11 had good grades in it as well. I used what was taught to me and my own interpretation of it to make this video. I didn't claim to be an expert and also made this for ENTERTAINMENT purposes.
@@swattdeeds Stop calling it mythology brown saheb. Stop this inferiority complex. We have different lens to look into things. It's called Vedic lens. Again i am telling you don't subvert our people for mere view's. And tell your atheist nalla friend that stay away from our culture and civilization. We don't need foreigner to teach our culture.
@@royman4907 Learn the meaning of ‘Mythology’ before you have a temper tantrum, next time.
which school did he go to lol... Hinduism is not taught in schools except maybe some stories here and there... also आ i.e., "aa" and अ "a" sound is two different sounds in hindi/ sanskrit/ and other related language... it fucking grinds my gears when an Indian mispronounces it.... its Pandav not Pandavaas, its Arjun not Arjunaa, (If you add "aa" sound then it becomes feminine form of that words, so Shivaa is feminine form of Shiv, Arjunaa is feminine form of Arjun, Karnaa is feminine form of Karna (Which btw is completely fine as as per Hinduism, both feminine and masculine is present in every organism and Devine)) Good video otherwise...
आ i.e., the "aa" sound and अ i.e., the "a" sound is vowel btw.
I'm glad you liked my video 😊
I went to Hindu college in Sri Lanka. In public schools religion is a must subject you must learn it from grade 1 to 11. Also in Tamil it is pronounced like that(Pandavar). The world is a big place.
Yo, the Ben 10 reference! 😹
EDIT: Sorry, wrong emoji! 😹
Hope you liked it😊
@@swattdeeds Absolutely loved it; the best reference I could've thought of! 😹
Basically a "wannabe hindi guy" reacts to mythology guy. He got facts wrong about Hinduism
Bhai brown saheb hai kya? Why you want to be angrej? You won't because angreezipan is not ours okay. We have our own lens to look at our itihas.
I think the earth should be more on endurance powers, or harden powers, or something that makes You Have an extremly high defense, it would go more with the proverb calling the wind's attacks strong while the mountain endures all
I understand your point in the metaphorical sense. That is a thing in Hindu mythology where they do state that Poomah devi is known for her kindness and patience. She endures all that happens in the world.
But to me, I feel like she should have been endurance and strength at the same time.
6.9k nice
Will you stop saying mythology mythology?
_Learn the meaning of ‘Mythology’ before you have a temper tantrum, next time._
You have to more learn about hindu dharm
Lower caste? Now you are a fake hindu. It wasn't because of caste. Drona was tasked to teach boys of kings not commoner. You are a propogandist.
So the warrior cast, priest cast are not mentioned in our mythology? We have moved passed those things and it's good but it was a part of the narrative in Karna's story arch. It's good because that was one of the lessons of his story, a person shouldn't be judged by his birth and family status. The best thing about Hindu stories are these complex world, and characters with flaws and mistakes. They teach amazing lessons and it's admired by many.
@@swattdeeds Again mythology 🤦. Are you mad? What caste are you talking about? It's called Varna system. And we don't worship God okay. We have a word called "parbrahma" Google it. And We don't worship it. I told you nah that you don't have any knowledge about our dharma and spreading misinformation with a foreign youtuber. For Valmiki shree ram is simple human being. And give that foreigner a message that stop subverting our people you atheist. Because we already have enough intellectuals to debunk your propaganda. Let our people live peacefully.
