Bang on Vrish 👏 Now this post is definitely out of the blues n is not of the regular reasons...would really love to read other reasons too...that will b quite enlightening 😊 But 1 question to u so do u think Yudhishtir had a right to stake his wife n brothers just coz dey belonged to him? Just wanna know ur Point of View on it 😊This content was originally posted by-.Vrish.I disdain Yudisthir, but Draupadi ain't the sole reason. Note that in that era, a persons younger brothers & wife did belong to him, which is why it was not held against him. Not that I condone what he did.
I disdain Yudisthir b'cos he seemed to love his enemies more than his friends. For instance, he stopped his brothers from protecting Draupadi & didn't protect her himself, but when Chitrasena captured the Kauravas, he sent Bhima & Arjun to free them. They pointed out the justice of it all, and Yudisthir made the inane argument that the Gandharvas were foreigners, while the Kauravas were their kith & kin. How is that compatible w/ someone who put dharam above everything else? After all, Kansa was Krishna's mama, Sishupala & Dantavatra his cousins but that didn't stop Krishna from killing them. Krishna taught that one should put dharam above one's relationships, but Yudisthir, in that incident, said that one should put one's relationships above dharam.There are more reasons, which I'll come to later.

yes I know u love Bheeshma n I agree wid u completely it should b Karma n not achieving a title just by the virtue of birth...so u go wid the third option? Sorry I didn't think of this option 🥱This content was originally posted by--ShrutiDharmaraja got tagged to him as he was the son of Dharmaraja. IMO Karma is greater than birth. At first he staked himself and lost. So technically he had lost his right on himself. How could he stake his brothers and common wife then? This is something I never understood. None of his brothers spoke while they were being staked...neither be bothered to seek their advice. So here he acted as a very weak man, not Dharmaraja.
Now coming to the question, I'm neutral 😆
Because...I don't love anyone...other than Bheeshma.
But there are a few men/women I hate.
