~ A tribute to the Lord Krishna, the spiritual consciousness.
The Ego, the King Karna, is born before the five senses, the Pandavas, come into being and connect with the Brain. Born of the same seed and the intelligence but separated early, Karna grows up apart.
The Brain itself is divided into two compartments, or call them factions, viz. the physical, material mind (the Queen Draupadi) & the abstract, spiritual consciousness (the Lord Krishna).
The Individual constantly guided by the five senses (the Pandavas) lives under a constant siege of a hundred Desires (the Kauravas).
The Ego, validated legitimate by the unlawful Desires, becomes indebted to them. It feeds on fulfilment of the Desires and will not oppose them, howsoever unethical they may be. These same Desires taint the perception of the physical mind (Draupadi), dragging the Individual into self-destruction. The senses are under control and helpless to resist the Desires. In this war against the unruly Desires, neither Ego (King Karna), nor knowledge (Guru Dronacharya), nor worldly wisdom (Pitamah Bhishma) helps.
Only the spiritual consciousness (Lord Krishna) urges the individual to fight back. That too as a guide only.
Spirituality leads and shows the way. Walking the righteous path shown by Spirituality, the individual in the end emerges victorious by defeating Desires, but only after sacrificing everything. And then, to his dismay, he realizes, there was nothing to win. It was all Maya, an illusion.
In fact, breaking the shell of illusion is the only objective of this game called life.
