MBH War and History-2
Karn was 16 years older than Yudhishthir
Yudhhishthir was 1 years older than Bheem
Bheem was 1 year and 4 months older than Arjun
Yudhishthir reigned Hastinaapur for 36 years and 8 months
War happened in 3139 BC
The day Krishn left for His heavenly abode, the same day Kali Yug came
And the catastrophic rain, storm and sea deluge lasted for 7 days and it
totally drowned Dwaarakaa Puree
This catastrophic even is recorded in Babylonian's ancient town Ur
(mythologized in the West as Noah's Flood and the ancient Maayan records.
The dates of both events are the same.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
(1) Lord Krishn passed away in 3102 BC (-3101
CE).
When Yudhishthir got the news he installed Pareekshit on the throne. This
is all in the MBH.
Pareekshit was born in 3138 BC. When Ashwatthaamaa used the Brahmaastra
during MBH war in late 3139 BC Pareekshit was saved by Lord Krishna.
Pareekshit was born in late 3138 BC. Pareekshit was already 60 yrs old
when he died. That means Pareekshit completed his 60 yrs in late 3078 BC
and he died soon after.
(2) After giving the kingdom to Pareekshit the Paandav along with
Draupadee went for Van Vaas. They went to the Lohit Saagar for returning
the Gandeev to Varun Dev and they visited other places. and at the end of
25 years from 3102 BCE, ie. in 3102 - 25 = 3077 BCE they left for heaven.
(3) The Saptarshi calendar started from 3077 BCE
So you can see that all these three events occurred around the same time.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I think it was Yudhishthir who remembered on
9th day of war that Bheeshm himself can reveal how to kill him in war (Bheeshm
Parv, CVIII)
Yudhishthir said - "In this battle an agreement was made by me with
Bheeshm. He said - "I will give thee counsel, but fight? I shall never for
thee, since I shall have to fight for Duryodhan's sake. Know this for
truth. Therefore, O Lord, Bheeshm may give me sovereignty by giving me
good counsel, O Maadhav. Therefore, O slayer of Madhu, all of us
accompanied by thee, will once more repair unto Devavrat, for asking him
about the means of his own death......"
In this section no mention is made that Krishn was knowing it or hinted
it. Instead Krishn is saying that "I will kill Bheeshm"... but Yudhishthir
stopped Him from breaking His Vow of not fighting in war.
Any reference that Lord Krishn was already
aware of it?
Also in Udyog Parv Section CLI - when asked by
Yudhishthir that "who should be our leader for 7 divisions?" Bheem said
Shikhandee. Bheem then said - "That son of Drupad, Shikhandee, who is born
for the destruction of Bheeshm, as is said - "O King, By the sages and
Siddha assembled together, whose form on the field of battle, while
displaying celestial weapons, will be seen by men to resemble that of the
illustrious Raam Himself, I see not, O king, the person who is able to
pierce with weapons that Shikhandee, when he is stationed for battle on
his car, accoutered in mail. Except the heroic Shikhandee, there is no
other warrior who is able to slay Bheeshm in single combat. It is for
this, O king, that I think Shikhandee is fit to be our generalissimo."
What would have been the outcome if they would
have listened to Bheem on day 1 itself?
Thus it is clear that Bheem was aware that only Shikhandee could kill
Bheeshm.
