Antipathy to the Rajastya
Why?
will not be angry after having seen the rule over the earth, 60 much wealth and that kind of sacrifice? But I am alone and cannot rob away that klody glory I have no helptr I am, therefore, thinking of suicide After having Been the stainless glory of Yudhisthira I feel that "luck prevails valour is useless Soine years ago I tried to destroy him, but he crossed over all the calamities Therefore, it appears to me that the luck 13 superior to all and valour is useless For the sons of Dhftar Astra are continuously at loss and the sons of Prthu are continuously getting profit "10 Then Sakun adviser him to invite Yudhisthira to play dice (II 44 18)
Duryodhana describes his mental disturbance created by the Rapsyperformance of Yudhisthira before Dhstara tra also He first narrates bor lofty the Rajasuya sacrifice was and how Yudhisthira received various pro scnts from different kings Then he adds "Yudhisthtra was shining In Hariscandra How do you, then O Dhrtaraztra' feel that my life is worth living ? (yalharimatram kauntejah siya paramaja yulah rajasiyamardpyalam harib andra iva prabhuh 1/22/1 etam distrz Srijam parihe karricandre year het nibho hatham nu jivitar frey'o maina palyasi bharata" //23// Mbh IL49 221) As is well known, Duryodhana accepts the advice given by Sakunt and the dlce-play lakes place Pandavas lose everything is that play They po to exite And when they return, the famous world-annihilating war occan.
It can be here rightly surmised that the root-cause of the Bharutrytwar was the Rajasuya-performance of Yudhisthira. At first Yudhisthin wus hesitating to perform it becaose he was aware of the future calamito
