Anjanaparvan , grandson of Bhima

Anjanaparvan was the grandson of Bhima and his asura wife Hidimbi . Meaning he is the son of Ghatotkach .


As he is an asura , meaning demon by birth , Anjanaparvan was very good at performing war with the help of illusions .


He came to the Kurukshetra battle ground when it was almost sunset . He was confronted with Ashwatthama who was heading the Kourava army .


At first , he threw a mace towards Ashwatthama . By illusion  , it became 1000 maces when it reached Ashwatthama . But Ashwatthama was able to escape that one .


Then Ashwattama aimed at Anjanaparvan's chest and threw some arrows . But they didn't pierce his chest . Anjanapurvan's chest was very hard that no weapon could piece it .


Finally , Ashwatthama beheaded him .

The 3 curses that resulted in Karna's death in battle ground

Karna , a tragic hero of Mahabharata , was a self made person . Though he is the son of Kunti , he was not awarded the prestige he was worth of .


Here are the 3 curses that Karna got and they went against him in the Kurukshetra war thus responsible for his death .


1. Curse of mother Earth

Once Karna had tried to help a small girl who has split the ghee on ground . She was crying fearing that her mother will scold her . That time , Karna tried to help the girl by trying to retrieve the lost ghee from squeezing and twisting the ground . The pain originated because of this twisting was unbearable and mother Earth cursed Karna for this act .


She cursed him saying that in an important situation like battle , she will not assist him . As a result , in kurukshetra war , the wheel of chariot of Karna got stuck in the mud . His efforts to free the wheel went in vain .

2 . Curse of the teacher

Karna was the student of Parashurama . When joining the ashram ,Karna lied to his teacher saying that he is a brahmin . Actually he is a kshatriya . Parashuram came to know of this and he cursed Karna that whatever he has learned from him , will not come to his help when he needs it the most .



3 . Curse of an oldman


Once Karna had shot and killed a cow mistaking it as a wild animal . The caretaker of the animal , an oldman ,  cursed Karna in grief saying that he will be killed by his enemy when his attention was diverted .


Same way , Karna got killed by his enemy Arjuna when all of his attention was at lifting the wheel of the chariot which got stuck in mud . He could not remember how to use the weapons at that time .

Everyone is fond of giving free advice .......

There was a famous painter living in Italy . His drawings were very famous . He was appreciated for his drawings throughout the world .



One day he had drawn a new drawing . He asked his colleagues to pinpoint the mistakes , if there are any , to him .



Everyone who saw the painting were of the opinion that it is the master piece . How can there would be a mistake in a famous painter's work ?



But the painter didn't agree . He put the painting in the exhibition with a small note saying that  if the onlooker find any mistake , they are free to mark the mistake in the painting itself !



As soon as he gave this message to the public , everyone turned masters of drawing . Now everyone started to see one or the other mistakes in the painting !!


That time the painter realised that everyone is good at giving free advice on others work .

What is the difference between truth and false ?

This is the question for which everyone wants to know the answer . Answer is very simple . 


THERE IS JUST 4 INCHES OF DISTANCE BETWEEN THESE TWO .


I will explain how . Actually 4 inches is the distance between eyes and ears in human face .

Whatever we hear from our ears most of the times , it is false . But whatever we see from our eyes is always true . 

Nowadays we see and hear false or fake news only . So if we see or hear anything , we must verify it .

Why do toothpaste affects the taste of food after brushing teeth ?

Soon after brushing the teeth , if we taste food ; it tastes not of its original taste , but tasteless . Now what is the reason for this ?


We brush our teeth and afterwards we rinse our mouth with the water . But after rinsing also , there will be little residual amount of toothpaste left on the teeth and gums . Rinsing will not completely eliminate them .



Our toothpaste contains an ingredient called SLS or Sodium Laureth Sulphate . This is responsible for the foam we get when we brush our teeth .


Now this ingredient suppresses our taste buds present on the tongue . This effect will be there for one to two hours of brushing the teeth .



But eating soon afterwards brushing the teeth is not advisable . As long as the power of toothpaste retained in the mouth , till that time germs attack will not be possible on teeth .
