Her beauty and power were famous. Gandhari has told in the Sati Parv that Bhanumati used to wrestle with Duryodhana in sports and games, in which Duryodhana lost to her many times. #Thread
Bhanumati was the daughter of King Chandravarma of Kamboj Rajya. She was very beautiful, attractive, intelligent and powerful. That was the reason that Duryodhana also went with the kings like Shishupala, Jarasandha, Rukmi, Vakra, Karna etc. in Bhanumati's Swayamvara.
When Bhanumati came to the Assembly with her maids and bodyguards with a garland in her hand and passed by all the kings one by one, also passed in front of Duryodhana. Duryodhan wanted that Bhanumati Mala should wear it but it did not happen.
Bhanumati went ahead of Duryodhana. Duryodhan got angry and immediately flung the garland with the hands of Bhanumati and put himself on his neck. All the kings took out the sword after seeing this sight.
In such a situation, Duryodhana hold Bhanumati's hand and took her out of the castle & said to all the warriors, defeat Karna and come to me. He challenged to all the warriors to a battle with Karna, & obviously Karna defeated everyone. In this way Duryodhana married Bhanumati.
Karna, despite being a great warrior, became a partner of crime. He knew that he was wrong, but he used to do it.

#बिहार में राजा-रजवाड़ों या महंतों ने भले ही उद्योग स्थापित करने या अस्पताल बनवाने में कुछ खास दिलचस्पी न दिखाई हो लेकिन उन्होंने मंदिरों के निर्माण में खूब उदारता दिखाई। इन्हीं में एक बेगूसराय शहर में स्थित प्रसिद्ध #नौलखा_मंदिर राम-सीता जी को समर्पित हिंदू मंदिर है। 1/6
मंदिर का आकार और सजावट दोनो ही काफ़ी सुंदर है। पूरे मंदिर को अंदर और बाहर दोनो तरफ़ से छोटे छोटे अद्भुत, रंगीन और बिभिन्न आकार् के शीशे से सजाया गया है। इसके दर्शन मत्र से आपको ये अंदाजा भी हो जयेगा। मंदिर का द्वार आपको प्राचीन काल की याद दिला देगी। 2/6
मंदिर के अंदर का माहौल काफ़ी शांत और भक्तिमय है, यहाँ आकर आपको भक्ति और शांति का अनुभव ज़रूर होगा। मंदिर के चरो तरफ़ की हरियाली बेशक मनमोहक है। फ़ूल-पत्तियोँ और पेड़-पौधों से सजा हुआ ये मन्दिर आपको दुबारा यहाँ खिंच लायेगी। ये बेगुसराय के अच्छे पिकनिक स्थल में से एक है। 3/6

What is most important for eternal love❤️️ ? Physical ability or Sensible spirit ?
#Kolkata : The body is broken, couples have lost strength. There may be various diseases in the body But none of this could last forever in love. The elderly couple still find joy in sitting quietly and mumbling and talking.
Overcoming the hope and despair of getting what they want, in this old age, they have resorted to two people. Wife wishes husband longevity. In obedience to the rules for the well-being of the partner, he wears a thick vermilion.
Paramatma helps in this way when we surrender completely with "vishwas" .....

Sant Sakhu संत सखू Sant Janabai संत जनाबाई
Sakhu Bai, an ardent devotee of Bhagwan Vitthal (vishnu), lives with her husband and a cruel mother-in-law.The mother thinks that her daughter-in-law will spoil her only son and then he will start neglecting his mother. Her husband also does not say anything to his mother because
he thinks that since he is her only son, people will disrespect him and his wife if he takes his wife's side. So Sakhu Bai has to bear all the ill-treatment silently. She worships Bhagwan Vitthala with all her heart and forgets her daily sufferings.
