Namahshivaya Swamiji, My question is related to the story of Abhimanyu in mahabharatha. 1. In mahabharatha we can see that, Arjuna is very close to Lord Krishna.Even Lord Krishna admits that Arjuna is so dear to him than his wifes, sons and other relatives.But why Krishna allowed Arjuna’s son Abhimanyu to die in Chakravyuha ? Why Krishna gave him the half knowledge about the vyuha when he was in his mother’s womb that eventually leads to his tragic death? 2. I have heard the story of Abhimanyu , as the “avatar” of Varchas ,the son of moon God. When Lord Vishnu asked Moon God to send his son Varchas to earth as Arjuna’s son , he makes Lord Vishu to agree for a promise that, his son should live only 16 years on Earth and should die in the Mahabharatha war fighting in Chakravyuha and come back to him. This is the reason why Lord Krishna gave him the half knowledge of Chakravyuha.Please clarify the authenticity of this story? Hari Om.

If you read this story with little wisdom you can see Abhimanyu is only a symbolic person. How?
Because he represents you, me and the people of the world.
As he learnt we also learn many subjects from school and college etc.
But Abhimanyu missed some important lessons (that is, how to get out of crises of life).
Don’t you think we also fall in the same category?
Others can teach knowledge but we have to get and learn wisdom.
No one can teach that, it comes through meditation.
HariOm!
