The lockdown has resulted in isolation and as a result of which, we have found ways to engage ourselves in different ways. Most of us have tried to engage with online games, web series, movies, and other online platforms. Most television channels have tried to come up with popular programs such as Mahabharata and Ramayana. We might have an understanding that these mythological programs are watched by elderly people, however, the lessons learned for it are applicable to all the age groups. We can learn life lessons that are helpful to deal with the problems in our life. A lot of times we face a dilemma between two unacceptable and wrong options, however, we can resolve this dilemma with the help of these learning. I will like to narrate one such incident where Pandavas are asked to live in the forest for 12 years. Lord Krishna advises them not to waste time and prepare themselves for the war. We can also learn something from this incident that instead of wasting time, we should prepare ourselves for the next phase of our life.
