It is the sixth story of the Karna Series. Long ago a girl born out of her loving parents, Dau Balram and his wife Rebati. Her mother hailed from Satya Yug whose father discovered a suitable groom for his only daughter in Dwapar Yug, in the elder si...
At the burning ghat of Kurukshetra: At the evening time:
"Mujhe jane do. Main unke sath jana chahti hoon. Mere liye kuch nahin bancha abhi. (Let me go with him. I want to go with him too. I don't have anything left.)"
One beautiful girl was fighting with three ladies around her. She was not a little bit interested to stay alive. She wanted to be Sati with her husband Vrishasen. She had lost the urge of her living. She could not bear to be alive after his premature demise. In this war of Mahabharata. On the 14th Day of war. She was devoted to her dear husband who was her love of life, Her desire of living, Her ultimate solace and her entire universe. She felt truly incomplete without him!!! She felt so dejected!!! So dead!!!
"Chod do mujhe. Chod do mujhe. (Let me go. Please for god sake let me go with him.)" She screamed loudly once more. While fighting hard.
"Putri, mat karo aisa. (Don't do that, my dear daughter.)" Devi Madirakshi uttered this slowly. This lady had seen the glimpse of her dead daughter, Pari or Paridhi, in this girl!!! Her daughter too had burnt her down in the pyre of her husband, Shatrunjay!!!!

Devi Madirakshi, Wife of Vikarna
This girl of seventeen was praying to her in this way "Jane dijiye. Ap bhi to ek Patni hain. Kya ap apne Arya ke bina reh sakte hain?!!! (Let me go. You yourself is a wife of someone. Can you live after the untimely death of him? Answer me.)"
Devi Madirakshi had seen to bit her lips in indecision. She had no answer to this question!!!! She surely would try to be Sati with her husband Vik or Vikarna!!!
Bhanumati tried to intervene and told to the girl firmly "Nahin. Yeah satya hi hain. Parantu ap ek Patni ki sath sath ek Badhu bhi ho. Apka aur bhi kuch kartyavya hain. Rajya ke prati. Apni parivar ke prati. (No. It's true. You are absolutely right. But think in this way too. You are not only the wife of your husband, but daughter-in-law of his family. You have some duty to them. You are also a Yuvrani or the Crown Princess of your state. You have some unfinished duties to your masses. You can't ran away from them.)" Her this logic was irrefutable as usual!! Bhanu was always appreciated by all for her intelligence and level headedness!!!
Madirakshi looked at the direction of Bhanu in relief. She was saved from answering this tricky question!!!
