Indian Mythological Heroes who would have won us gold in the Olympics

Indian Mythological Heroes in Olympics

Our Indian mythologies - Mahabharatha and Ramayana

Our Indian mythologies, Mahabharatha, and Ramayana, are rich with stories of great warriors, epic battles, and glorious triumphs. What if these legendary heroes magically reappeared in our modern time and space and represented us in the Olympics? With their extraordinary skills and abilities, we would undoubtedly secure all the gold medals!

Archery: Arjuna

Arjuna was an exceptionally talented archer, favored by his teacher Dronacharya. He won Princess Draupadi's hand in marriage by hitting the eye of a fish reflected in the water, showcasing his unmatched skills. With his precision and focus, he will hit the bullseye effortlessly, winning us the much-awaited GOLD!

Wrestling: Bheema

Bheema, the brother of Arjuna and one of the five Pandavas, possesses unmatched strength. He single-handedly defeated all 100 Kauravas during the Kurukshetra war, including their leader, Duryodhana. His power and vigor guarantee us the Olympic gold medal in wrestling!

Fencing: Nakul & Sahadev

Nakul and Sahadev may be lesser-known among the Pandava brothers, but their expertise in fencing is unparalleled. They skillfully fought demons and enemies during their time in the forest with their brothers. If they were to reincarnate for the Olympics, they would undoubtedly excel and secure the gold!

Weightlifting: Ravana

Ravana, often portrayed as a villain in the Ramayana, was a wise and skilled hero. His 10 heads symbolize the four Vedas and six Sashtras. With his immense strength and devotion to Lord Shiva, Ravana can lift us to our much-coveted Gold medal.

Gymnastics: Hanuman

Hanuman, the mighty monkey god from the Ramayana, is revered for his incredible strength. He played a pivotal role in reuniting Lord Ram and Sita and exhibited his agility while flying to Lanka and setting fire to Ravana's palace. With his exceptional gymnastic abilities, the gold medal would be a breeze for Hanuman!

Swimming/Diving: Duryodhana

Duryodhana, known for his cunning, was also well-trained in swimming under excellent teachers. During the Kurukshetra war, he displayed his skill by holding his breath underwater to escape Bhima. Now he has the chance to use his abilities positively, bringing us the well-deserved gold medal.

Athletics: Kartikeya

Kartikeya, the beloved son of Lord Shiva and Parvati, displayed great determination and enthusiasm during a race against his brother, Ganesha. Despite losing, Kartikeya's spirit to win was inspiring. He deserves a gold medal for his exceptional athleticism and dedication!

Now that our heroes have returned, we are eager to see the positive changes they will bring to our world. Their remarkable presence will undoubtedly inspire us to achieve greatness and bring honor to our nation in every field.

Onions are just the beginning

In the modern age, where progress and enlightenment are celebrated, it's disheartening to witness the persistent struggles faced by women. A recent incident on television, as I was channel surfing, left me questioning the plight of women in our society. I stumbled upon a scene of a saas (mother-in-law) berating her bahuraani (daughter-in-law) for a seemingly trivial act - adding onions to a curry. The young woman, in her delicate saree, wept profusely, her tears tarnishing the beauty of her jewel-studded attire. Why does such injustice persist? This portrayal on television, while seemingly dramatic, reflects the bitter reality of many women's lives. The issue of dowry, which may not have been about onions in this case, has been a longstanding menace. Mother-in-laws tormenting their son's wives is not an uncommon story. Countless women face abuse, both emotional and physical, when they fail to meet unreasonable dowry demands set by their husbands' families. Records illus...

The Journey of Love Through Ages Every one of us at any point in our lives must have wondered, what is love? The real definition may be a mystery or not because science actually doesn't approve or have proof of love, yet people say they have fallen in love. Maybe love is like water. It molds itself to the changing situations. Let us have a look at the journey of love through ages.. Earlier (man) stages: There was nothing called love. Even if there was, it made no sense. People just lived to eat and they satisfied their physical needs with maybe anyone or anything. Later the same time: There may be...was love, but people didn't pay much attention to it. People lived with each other for the sake of living or maybe lived with the person who fetched them food. Last stages of this stage: People had multiple partners so that they had their options open! Especially m...
