《KARNA - MAHADEV'S DECIPLE》KARNA - PARSHURAM TALK
Advertisement
Karna and Avantika left Hastinapur next morning after breakfast and greeting everyone to roam around the Aryavart. There were two destinations fixed for their one month long vacation that are Mahendragiri and Ujjain. They first decided to go Mahendragiri to get the blessings of Bhagwan Parshuram. They rode Rashmi and went in the direction of first destination. They reached there next day morning. They desummoned the Rashmi at foot of mountain and decided to walk up the mountain. After 1 hour of walking they reached the ashram of Bhagwan Parshuram. They saw Bhagwan Parshuram was meditating, deciding not to disturb him they both sat in front of them.
Parshuram feeling the presense of others opened his eyes. The couple touched his feets.
Karna : Pranipat Gurubhrata.
Avantika : Pranipat Bhagwan.
Parshuram : Kalyan Ho.
The couple stood up.
Karna : We came to get you blessings Guru Bhrata.
Parshuram : My blessings is always with you.
Avantika : We want to stay and serve you for a week Bhagwan. Please allow us of this opportunity.
Parshuram : You are always welcome at Mahendragiri.
The couple with Parshuram enters his hut and greeted Dharini the wife of Parshuram. Dharini arranged for breakfast for all of them. After the breakfast Avantika stayed with Dharini and Karna went out with Parshuram. Karna has always a guilt on his face since he first saw Parshuram. They never got alone time to talk about it. The reason of coming here was for Karna to say sorry for his naive decision.
Parshuram (smiles) : What happened Karna?
Karna : Prabhu, what is hidden from you. You know since I saw you in Kailash, I wanted to talk to you and apologize to you.
Parshuram : For what?
Karna : For even thinking of cheating you prabhu, I in my anger and arrogance has decided to cheat you. People think I helped grandmother Phuspa but in truth she saved me. If it wasn't for her, I would have done a sin which I don't know if I was able to bear my whole life.

Parshuram (smiles) : I am glad you have guts to acknowledge your mistakes knowing how easily I can be angered. Didn't you consider the possibility of me cursing you.
Karna : Would you have truly cursed me if I had done what I had planned.
Parshuram : Yes. I would have.
Karna : Prabhu, I could have lived with your curse as it would be apt punishment but having this guilt is unbearable for me.
Parshuram : There is no reason for feeling Guilty Karna, you haven't actually done the sin. Who in their life didn't thought of something drastic. I can't completely blame you for your thoughts because of circumstances. But it's true you have saved yourself from a great disaster, the knowledge you would have gained by cheating me would have left on your most dire time of needing it. You would have taken your steps towards Adharm from there and it would have led you to have remembered as Adharmi in history even if you would have followed your Dharm till the end of your life.
Karna (shocked) : Just one decision would have ruined my life. My name would be tarnished because of it.
Parshuram : Yes Karna, you are a pure soul and you are focused person. By gaining knowledge through cheating your life would have become focused on competing with Drona's students and proving yourself to the world. You wouldn't have devotion but competition as base for gaining knowledge. You wouldn't have understood the true dharm and like Yudhishthir you would also have followed your chosen Dharm. Karna remember one step in wrong direction is all needed for one to lead his whole life in wrong direction. I am glad destiny has given you chance and you took it. Your one decision has not only saved you from pain and sorrow but it has led you to become my Guru Bhrata instead of student.

Karna Boon and Curses are nothing but results of one's choices in their life. A boon or curse doesn't define a person as good or evil. Even tridevs have been cursed by others. If you would side of Adharm then your boon will become curse and curse will become a boon if you are doing Dharm but the condition is it had to be True Dharm not fake dharm that people now are adherent to. You yourself have seen how Bheeshma boon of iqchamitryu has turned to his curse, he had to see his future generation degrading and fighting each other. It happened because he despite knowing Dharma, didn't do his duties towards the welfare of society. Remember Karna, there is no boon or no kavach that can save a Adharmi.
Karna : I will always remember your words.
Parshuram : Though I can't punish you for your thoughts, but to ease your guilt I want something from you Karna.
Karna : Please, I am ready to do anything to get rid of this guilt. L
Parshuram : Fine, send your son to me for training, but don't tell him I said that I will test him then only will train him.
Karna : I will be happy to do so. I will send him when time of his gurukul will began. Thank you for your generous offer.
Parshuram : I promise you Karna, if your son passed my all tests then he wouldn't be any less of a warrior than you.
Karna : I am assured by your promise.
Parshuram then went for meditation while karna went to do several chores of ashram. Avantika and Dharini prepared lunch and called their husbands respectively. They all had lunch. After lunch Parshuram and Dharini went for their meditation. Karna told Avantika about his talks with Parshuram. Avantika was happy that Karna was free from one burden and Bhagwan Parshuram himself will be teacher of their son.
Soon one week has passed Karna and Avantika did their best to seve Bhagwan Parshuram and his wife Dharini. They did ther chores and prepared food etc. After one week they too their blessings and decent from Mahendragiri. After that Karna again summoned Rashmi and they both went towards Ujjain. They reached Ujjain after 2 Days if travel. They reached the palace where Avantika's family was waiting for them. Maharani Mithila did the aarti and welcomed them. Avantika hugged her family as soon as the aarti ended. They all went inside the palace. They all had refreshments and food together. They spent their rest of the vacation happily in Ujjain.

Journey West 5000
With her parents murdered and her brother abducted, a trainee Monk of the Gun pursues the one responsible, the Bull Demon King, undefeated Warlord of the Crimson Army.Struggling to track down her enemy while braving the dangers of the wilds, she enlists the help of Sun Wukong, but 500 years under a mountain have taken its toll. Unstable and weakened, will he be more hindrance than help? Can he become the warrior he once was?A Monk and a Monkey journey across a world...... where the remnants of technology are seen as magic, while pockets of humanity strive to drag themselves out of ignorance.... where the descendants of animal-human hybrids, once created as instruments of war, now seek to dominate the world as demons.... where beings who call themselves Immortals and Gods preoccupy themselves with selfish pastimes, ignoring everything else. Among other things, a story about growth, grit, and being better than the person you were yesterday. Here's my rambling on why I'm writing Journey West 5000. Journey West 5000 is my crazy ambitious writing project to adapt a classic epic called "Journey to the West" for a global, modern audience. It's a sci-fi story disguised as fantasy, and has some road trip + monster of the week elements (as does the original Journey to the West). No system, definitely no harem, gradual power progression. Hmm, what else can I put here so potential readers know what to expect? My writing style for now is mostly "show don't tell", because I believe that readers don't need to have everything pointed out to them, and that they should be allowed to make up their own minds about characters based on the actions of those characters. I'm also trying to be less long-winded (a weakness pointed out by some friends) in order to write according to something Neil Gaiman said, which is to write as though I'm the one who has to pay for every word, not the reader. This will bring down my chapter word counts, and might drive away potential readers, but I believe there's value in learning to compress and be concise. All chapters posted here will have been edited. Constructive criticism, comments, and feedback would be very much welcome and appreciated. Please, please help point out any typos or grammatical mistakes, I'm striving to minimize those as much as possible. Above all, I hope you enjoy my story.

Stories Of Indlu
“… to grow, for opportunity, for adventure, to be free. Join the colony ship Nao Vittoria. Be the first to live amongst the stars.” It was obvious from the literature that the NextStar corporation wanted the young, the adventurous and the brilliant. So why were the super rich fighting over seats? Why were AI’s trying to stow away? Did this signify a premature end to human/AI civilisation? Why had some questions directed to NextStar been aggressively sidelined? Why did the colonist inflight entertainment trial produce fatalities? In fact, why colonists at all? Those and many other questions, however, boiled down to a single central question. Why was the world’s most advanced AI dumped with a hundred year babysitting job for 50 million people speeding towards an uninhabitable planet? It made such little sense. The only sure way to get answers, catch a ride on the Nao Vittoria and play the inflight entertainment game, Pax Domini. I joined, and this is my story. Well, I feature. OK, I’m more of a spectator. Actually, I’m completely irrelevant I was just there. I’m only the storyteller. But what a story to tell. --------- Hi All, Content will be published weekly usually Saturday and typical posts will be 25oo to 4ooo words per post. Though for some reason the Royal Road word count does not include the content of tables so some posts may not appear to meet this criteria. Currently I have written sufficient unedited content to keep this schedule for the next 12 months (half way through the first story arc). My current productivity would indicate that I can maintain this schedule for well into the second story arch. This also allows for the additional content that will be posed exclusively on Patreon (https://www.patreon.com/StoriesOfIndlu). This additional content follows minor characters, peripheral events, maps and other content that does not take away from the main story. I would love to accelerate the post schedule but to meet this I need the assistance of more beta readers than I currently have. So please let me know if you are interested. - Andy ©2022 Andy Leauter.
