Sarcasm

I remember very little of that argument. Whenever I remember this behaviour of Sheenanna, I feel disappointed and worried. Why did he behave like that? The sarcasm that was never found in his father, mother, and brothers, where did he get it from? Some of the incidents in his life might have soured his mind .

I have earlier mentioned about his behaviour during the travel to Tirupati. Sheenanna was not a person without having a mistress. He had three or four of them.

The Pāṇḍavas after winning over their enemies, were ruling the vast kingdom under the guidance of Dhṛtarāṣṭra. Sañjaya, Yuyutsu and Vidura were taking care of the health and well-being of Dhṛtarāṣṭra. The Pāṇḍavas always consulted Dhṛtarāṣṭra for all their needs and their wives such as Draupadī and Subhadrā were guided by Gāndhārī. They treated their uncle and aunt with great love and tried to ensure that they could provide as much comfort as possible to the old couple who had lost their children. Dhṛtarāṣṭra and Gāndhārī were peaceful and affectionate to their nephews as well.

‘ಸಭಾಪರ್ವ’ದಲ್ಲಿ ಕುಮಾರವ್ಯಾಸ ಎರಡು ಸಭಾಭವನಗಳನ್ನು ಪರಿಚಯಿಸುತ್ತಾನೆ.  ಎರಡೂ ಭವನಗಳು ನಿರ್ದಿಷ್ಟ ಕಾಲಘಟ್ಟವೊಂದರಲ್ಲಿ, ಭಾರತದಲ್ಲಿ ವಾಸ್ತು ಕಲೆಯು ಸಾಧಿಸಿದ್ದ ಔನ್ನತ್ಯದ ಪ್ರತೀಕಗಳೆನ್ನಬಹುದು.  ಮೊದಲನೆಯ ಸಭಾಭವನ, ಧರ್ಮರಾಯನ ಇಂದ್ರಪ್ರಸ್ಥದಲ್ಲಿ ದೇವಶಿಲ್ಪಿ ಮಯನಿಂದ ನಿರ್ಮಿತವಾದದ್ದು.  ಈ ಸಭಾಭವನನಿರ್ಮಾಣದ ಉದ್ದೇಶ ರಾಜಸೂಯಯಾಗವನ್ನಾಚರಿಸುವ ಧಾರ್ಮಿಕ, ಸಾತ್ತ್ವಿಕ ಉದ್ದೇಶ.  ಸಹಸ್ರಾರು ರಾಜರು, ಋಷಿಗಳು, ಬ್ರಾಹ್ಮಣರು ಮತ್ತು ಸಮಾಜದ ಉಳಿದ ಎಲ್ಲರೂ ಸೇರಿ, ವೇದಗೋಷ್ಠಿ, ವಿದ್ವತ್‍ಗೋಷ್ಠಿ ಮುಂತಾದ ಅನೇಕ ಸಾಂಸ್ಕೃತಿಕ ಆಧ್ಯಾತ್ಮಿಕ ಕಾರ್ಯಕ್ರಮಗಳನ್ನು ನಡೆಸುವುದು, ಆದರೂ ಇದೇ ಸಭಾಭವನದಲ್ಲಿ, ಧರ್ಮಸಂಸ್ಥಾಪನೆಗೆಂದು ಕೃಷ್ಣನಿಂದ ಶಿಶುಪಾಲವಧೆಯೂ ನಡೆಯುತ್ತದೆ.  ಹಾಗೂ ಈ ಸಭೆಯ ವಾಸ್ತುವಿನ್ಯಾಸದ ಗೊಂದಲಗೊಳಿಸುವ ಚಾತುರ್ಯದಿಂದಾಗಿ,
