Meaning of Chakravyuha Recently, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi gave a speech in the Lok Sabha about the copy of the Constitution, which was widely discussed.
Now once again Rahul Gandhi’s speech is in the headlines. Last Monday, Rahul Gandhi once again talked about many issues while cornering the central government. But his word ‘Chakravyuh’ remained in discussion in the speech.
He said that like Abhimanyu, the central government has trapped the youth, farmers and poor sections of India in a Chakravyuh. Rahul Gandhi said- ‘Thousands of years ago, Abhimanyu was trapped in a Chakravyuh and killed by six people. Another name for Chakravyuh is Padmavyuh which is like a lotus flower. There is fear and violence inside it.’
What is Chakravyuh, how was it created (What is Chakravyuh)
What exactly was the Chakravyuh that is being discussed and what has been said about it in the scriptures, let us know-
In ancient times, to fight a war, the sides and the opposition used to form a formation in their favour. Forming a formation means making the soldiers stand in front of each other.
When seen from above, it appears like a formation. Similarly, when seen from above, Chakravyuh also looks like a rotating wheel (spiral) in which there is a military formation. The way to enter the Chakravyuh is visible, but the way to get out is not visible.
Seven gates were built in it. A person skilled in the art of war was posted at each gate. He was accompanied by elephants, horse riders and foot soldiers.
It is said that thousands of years ago, Chakravyuh was created by Dronacharya. He made it like a rotating wheel. In the Mahabharata, Dronacharya, the chief commander of the Kauravas, used it to capture Dharmaraja Yudhishthira.
Who could break the Chakravyuh in Mahabharata?
Only Shri Krishna, Arjun, Pradyumna and Abhimanyu knew how to break the Chakravyuh. It is said about Abhimanyu that he knew how to break the Chakravyuh from the womb of mother Subhadra, but he did not know how to get out of it and neither did he learn how to get out of the Chakravyuh after birth. When Abhimanyu went into the Chakravyuh during the war, he was surrounded from all sides and killed.
