Mahabharata is an ancient epic written by Vedvyas. It shows the journey of Kauravas and Pandavas, and also shows how Pandavas dealt with situations, and defeated Kauravas in the war of Mahabharata. The paper discusses how during the war, many incidents happened and many people died on the battlefield. But according to Shree Krishna, it was not just death but it was the way for Moksh (salvation). On the 13th day of the war, Draunacharya decided to make Chakravyuh (formation) to defeat Yudhishthira as Yudhishthira did not know how to break the Chakravyuh. Abhimanyu was killed in the Chakravyuh and after that other 3 people also died and their death is connected to Abhimanyu’s death. The three are Susharma, Jayadratha, and Jayadratha’s father. They became the reason for Arjun behind Abhimanyu’s death. Their death was designed by Krishna.
Krishna had designed their death to give them Moksh. It was not a mistake but the greatest way. It was Krishna’s wish. It works like a chain as in the chain; each aspect is connected with the other. Like the chain, everyone’s death was connected. In this, I will show you the way, designed by Krishna for death (Moksh) of each person.
