Mahabharata and Modern Mahabharata
                                                                                                                                                              The first  chapter of Gita is based on full of sorrow expressed by Arjuna to Lord Krishna as he  saw all his relatives on war front i.e. Including  his Guru Drona and Grand Father Bhisma. However it is not as simple as narrated thereon because Arjuna also described the position of his family after War. There only lies the picture of modern Mahabharata in our society.

                                                                      The same types of inner fighting are going on present day in many families .  The family members are fighting against each other out of jealousy, vindictiveness and ego.  However they are not worried about the outcome from such fight which was put up by Arjuna before Lord Krishna. Arjuna clearly described his mental problems which reflects on his body looking at the disastrous results of family fight.  The same types things may be reflecting in the minds of prudent members of the family during inner fight of family. They may be suffering from fear or stress or helplessness, or excitements, or nervousness, or loss of control over body or may be unhappy about the situation.  The present day  family fight  brings out  total destruction of the family relationship. It is observed that in some of the cases even sons does not go to the funeral of parent, or brother  sister does not talk to each other, or even mother do not look at their children. In short all blood relationship is scattered. The same things happened to Dhutarashtra and Gandhari after their all sons were killed in war.

                                                                    Arjuna described his Kaurava Brothers as 'Aattaayi'.  'Aattaayi' is a Sanskrit word means  people who can set fire,or aggressors, or who loots properties, or who snatch away others property, or Even goes up to using poison to kill rivals. Even today also those types of 'Aattaayi' are existing in the families who creates inner fighting. However Dharma says the above types of people deserved to be destroyed.
                                                                     Arjun also described to Lord Krishna that what will be the position of his family after war. He says the tradition and heritage of family will be destroyed. The several women will become widow and that will bring the downfall of dharma. All these will affect adversely on  the Ladies. It will spoil the next generation. Arjuna was full of wisdom and he was right. We can see even modern society all inner fights of families bring all these types of evils.
                                                                   Therefore Mahabharata is still alive in present day society. We have to learn from Gita that how to avoid such destructive situation  in day to day family life.
