analysis arjuna ashwatthama bhishma drona duryodhana dusashana karna mahabharat mahabharata meta sources uttara

I always wanted to do this. 

This is the very lengthy answer to the perennial question, I have been asked, time and again.

Why I always quote the Virata War when someone asks me, why I think Arjuna is the greatest warrior of the Mahabharata (save Krishna obviously)?

Though there are several instances of his prowess which proves the same, the one which stands out to me the most is the war fought for Matsya's protection. 

And here I am going to give y'all a sneak peak, for the people who don't have the time to read the original text or are just looking for a concise yet fun analysis.

He lowers his head and kisses her deeply! Ye Lulu: "???" Something is wrong here! Aren't you guys from the ancient past? Why are you so unrestrained?
