Guest guest Posted March 12, 2008 Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 In the Mahabharata, it is a pity to notice the killing of youngsters like Abhimanyu and Ghatotkacha for no fault of their own. It is justifiable if bad people are killed or punished. But, how can we account for the death of these youngsters? The answer is very easy and simple. A small example I give you here to,, make you clearly understand the answer to the question. When there are a large number of mosquitoes in your house, what do you do generally? You spray some kind of insecticide like Flit all over the house or use DDT, to kill the mosquitoes, don't you? You have to notice one point here. Due to spraying poisonous insecticide, all the mosquitoes die. After all only one or two mosquitoes must have bitten you, not all of them. But, all those mosquitoes that have not bitten you also die in your operation. Similarly, in a war some innocents also die. This is natural.

Guest guest Posted March 12, 2008 Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 May I ask, does Sai Baba hereby defend " war " , when he says that " in a war some innocents also die. This is natural. " Is war itself not entirely inhuman, and barbaric? Let alone the killing of innocents? " THOUGH SHALLT NOT KILL " . johan On Behalf Of divinesprt Wednesday, March 12, 2008 4:30 AM Sai message for the day In the Mahabharata, it is a pity to notice the killing of youngsters like Abhimanyu and Ghatotkacha for no fault of their own.
