♦ The Fight of Brothers: Arjuna vs. Karna
For the majority of their lives, Karna and Arjuna were unaware that they were half-brothers, both born of Kunti. However, fate put them on opposite sides—Arjuna with the Pandavas and Karna with Duryodhana and the Kauravas—because of rejection and fortune.
On the 17th day of the Kurukshetra war, the long-awaited fight between Arjuna and Karna at last took place. This was a battle of ideologies, pride, and hidden truths, not just a fight of weaponry, making the atmosphere stressful.
In his majestic chariot, Karna, who is now the commander of the Kaurava army, entered the battlefield. Arjuna, who was led by Lord Krishna and consumed by years of animosity, uncertainty, and a sense of justice, confronted him.
Each counteracted the other strike for strike, unleashing heavenly weapons as they engaged in a furious conflict. The gods themselves stopped to see.
After that, fate stepped in.
As a result of a curse Mother Earth had earlier placed on Karna, the wheel of his chariot fell into the soft ground. Karna pleaded with Arjuna, who was having trouble pulling it out, and reminded him of the warrior code: "It is against dharma to attack a defenseless man." Hold off until I've repaired my chariot.
However, since he was aware of Karna's history, Krishna addressed him with a stern voice:
"Where was your dharma when Draupadi was humiliated? When you gambled away a kingdom with Duryodhana? When you consistently mocked the Pandavas?"
Arjuna was instructed by Krishna to fire.
At that terrible moment, Arjuna slew Karna, a warrior whom he greatly admired but could never get along with. The Kauravas' destiny was decided when Karna fell.
The Pandavas didn't realize the truth until later: The son of Kunti and the sun deity Surya, Karna, was their oldest sibling.
The news broke them, particularly Arjuna, who understood that the man he had murdered was a member of his own family, a noble spirit who was bound by fate and allegiance.
♦ The Tale's Lesson:
The tale of Karna and Arjuna encompasses the cruelty of fate, betrayal, identity, and dharma, as well as war. It serves as a reminder that righteousness is not always apparent, and that occasionally the purest hearts endure the greatest suffering.

The hindu religious book, which is Hindu in origin, urges readers to consider the enduring conflict between righteousness and desire, action and detachment.
