The Present Picture Also Depicts The Tale Of Sacrifice And Self-Denial Of Such A Mother. She Has Put Up An Illustration Before The World That No Power On The Earth Can Deviate A Mother From Her Firm Determination, Come What May. The Heroine Of This Story Is Chitrangada The Daughter Of The King Of Manipur. . Chitrangada Was Married To The Great Archer Arjun. A Few Days After The Wedding He ( Arjun) Left Manipur.

He Deserted Her Who Without Any Grumbling Put Up With The Slur. But Naradji Could Never Tolerate It. Even The Self Denying Naradji Was Moved By The Tears Of The Woman Who Registered Her Protest Through Silence. He Made Chitrangada Conscious Of Her Latent Power And Told Her That God Is The Creator Of This Universe But It Is The Mother Who Shapes The Future Of The World. Having Been Thus Emboldened Chitrangada Made Up Her Mind To Prove To Her Husband. Arjun That The Boy Babhruvahan Was None Other Than His Own Son. . Having Been Reared Up Under His Mother Chitrangadas Care Babhruvahan, When He Became A Fine Young Man Learnt That The Pandavas Were To Perform The " Ashwamedh Yagna" ( Horse Sacrifice).

For A Moment Chitrangada Could Not Imagine The Very Thought Of A Fight Between The Father And The Son But Soon Recollecting The Slur Cast On Her By Arjun, She Decided To Send Her Sone Babhruvahan To Fight His Father, Arjun. .

On The Battlefield Arjuns Head Was Lying Cut Off From His Body. Chitrangada Was Weeping Bitterly. The Lord Was Silent. Right At The Movement Naradji Arrived On The Spot And Declared That It Was A Victory For The Motherhood. Thereafter Several Events Took Place- Babhruvahans Adventures , Nagas Victory And Through Shri Krishnas Grace A New Lease Was Given To Arjuns Life. . Today We Very Badly Need Mothers Like Chitrangada Who Can Give Birth To Sons Like Babhruvahan And Inculcate In Them Virtues So That They Can Make The Nation Strong And Help Us To Hold Our Heads High Before Other Sister Nations Of The World.
