Destiny !

Once it so happened that the eldest of Drutarashtra's son's, Suyodhana, cautioned all his siblings not to serve any food when it was dark to the third sibling of the Pandavas, the so called Arjuna. The reason was that, if Arjuna was served any  food while it was dark, he would understand the logic behind using his weapon to aim and dart at the targets during nights. The kauravas have taken utmost care to prevent from this to happen for a long time.

One day, Arjuna was searching for Bheema, the second sibling in order of the panadavas. Having searched all over the place, Arjuna still could not find him. It was already dark and the only place that was left out was the royal kitchen. Not to leave any plate unturned, Arjuna headed to the kitchen and found that the kitchen was pitch dark. However, he heard sounds coming out of the kitchen and cried out to find who that was. Bheema answered arjuna's call and said would join him in five minutes after having few more sweets. Arjuna was astonished as to how Bheema was able locate the food and his mouth and eat while it was so dark in the Kitchen. Bheema answered Arjuna by stating that it was by using his sense organs to smell the food and by way of practice and keen observation of the kitchen and its layout. This instigated in Arjuna the quench to use his weapon during the nights to dart at the targets. Thus after practicing for many years, Arjuna was successful in using his weapon with equal capability during the day as well as in the nights.

Moral : Once something has been destined by God to happen, may there be any methods that man might adopt to prevent it, it would certainly take its turn at the prescribed time ! Hari Bol !
