ARJUNA:- THE MOST HANDSOME MAN OF WORLD
Since the blorndies could not prove their hero better than Arjuna as a warrior,so now they claim that Arjuna was ugly looking and their overglorified hero was the most handsome,LOL,such frustrated jerks
The basic concern raised by these blorndies is that Arjun has been described as ‘Dark Skinned’ hence he is bad looking.LOL
– Lord Rama was Dark Skinned,still one of the most handsome.
– Lord Krishna was Dark Skinned,still one of the most handsome.
– Lord Vishnu was Dark Skinned,still one of the most handsome.
– Even Draupadi was Dark Skinned,still one of the most beautiful woman.
– Lord Krishna was Dark Skinned,still one of the most handsome.
– Lord Vishnu was Dark Skinned,still one of the most handsome.
– Even Draupadi was Dark Skinned,still one of the most beautiful woman.
The Three Krishnas(Draupadi,Arjun,Vasudeva) were all dark skinned but the most beautiful and handsome.
THIS THREAD IS DIVIDED INTO TWO PARTS –
PART 1)DESCRIPTION OF ARJUN’S BEAUTY AND HANDSOMENESS IN MAHABHARAT.
PART 2)ARJUNA & KARNA,WHO WAS MORE HANDSOME
——————————–
PART 1)DESCRIPTION OF ARJUN’S BEAUTY AND HANDSOMENESS IN MAHABHARAT –
>> His name ‘Arjuna’,itself means ‘Shining like Silver’.
>> Celestial announcement during Arjun’s birth –
“In beauty,Arjuna will be a rival of Soma(Chandradeva)”
>> Arjun’s description at Draupadi Swayamwar(He was disguised as a poor Brahmin that time)
Narrative:
This handsome youth is even like the trunk of a mighty elephant, whose shoulders and arms and thighs are so well-built, who in patience looks like the Himavat, whose gait is even like that of the lion, and whose prowess seems to be like that of an elephant in rut, and who is so resolute, that it is probable that he will accomplish this feat.
>> Arjun’s eyes like ‘Lotus Petals’ and ‘Curly Hairs’ have been described at many places in the epic –
Narrative 1:
Dhananjaya, called also Partha, of eyes like lotus-petals, and curly hair and conch-like neck salute thee respectfully
Narrative 2:
king Yudhishthira in grief said unto his brother Dhananjaya of curly hair who never departed from his vows, these words
Narrative 3:
And he embraced Arjuna of the curly hair; and spoke words of solace to the daughter of Drupada.
>> Yudhishthir describes Arjun’s personality,it also shows the age gap between Arjun and Yudhi/Bhima –
Narrative:
Dark in complexion, youthful in years, of curly locks, exceedingly handsome mighty car-warrior, of broad chest and long arms, possessed of the tread of an infuriated elephant, of eyes of the colour of burnished copper and like those a chakra, that brother of thine enhances the fears of foes.
>> During Indralok Visit,Vaisampayana describes Arjun’s appearance –
Narrative:
And moved by affection, the slayer of Vritra, consoling Arjuna, touched his beautiful face with his own perfumed hands. And the wielder of the thunderbolt, patting and rubbing gently again and again with his own hands which bore the marks of the thunderbolt the handsome and huge arms of Arjuna which resembled a couple of golden columns and which were hard in consequence of drawing the bowstring and son enhanced the beauty of the assembly, like the sun and moon god of a thousand eyes–eyeing his son of curly locks smilingly and with eyes expanded with delight, seemed scarcely to be gratified. The more he gazed, the more he liked to gaze on. And seated on one seat, the father and son enhanced the beauty of the assembly, like the sun and moon beautifying the firmament together on the fourteenth day of the dark fortnight.
>> Even in the battle against Karna,Vaisampanya describes Arjuna’s beauty without Kirit –
Reft of diadem, the dark complexioned and youthful Partha looked beautiful like a blue mountain of lofty summit
>> Not only Physical appearance,Arjun’s body had auspicious marks as well –
Narrative:
The lot of that delighter of the Pandus is exceedingly miserable. His body has every auspicious mark.
>>During jarashanda vadh,Vaisampayana describes Arjun’s beauty –
And he also who could wield the bow with both hands (Arjuna), who was incapable of being vanquished by any of the monarchs on earth, who was #exceedingly #handsome in person and well-skilled in the destruction of the foe, accompanied by the possessor of great strength (Bhima), came out of that tort with Krishna driving the car whereon he rode.
>>During jaydratha vadh,Lord krishna describes Arjun’s beauty –
‘In all the worlds including that of the celestials, there is no bowman equal to Dhananjaya, the son of Pritha! Possessed of great energy. accomplished in weapons, of great prowess and great strength, celebrated in battle, ever wrathful, and of great energy, Arjuna is the foremost of men. Youthful in years bull-necked, and of long arms, he is endued with great strength. Treading like a lion or a bull, and #exceedingly #beautiful he will slay all thy foes. As regards myself, I will do that by which Arjuna, the son of Kunti, may be able to consume the troops of Dhritarashtra’s son like a swelling conflagration. This very day, Arjuna will, by his arrows despatch that vile wretch of sinful deeds, that slayer of Subhadra’s son, (viz., Jayadratha), to that road from which no traveller comes back. Today vultures and hawks and furious jackals and other carnivorous creatures will feed on his flesh. O Yudhishthira, if even all the gods with Indra become his protectors today, Jayadratha will still, slain in the thick of battle, repair to Yama’s capital. Having slain the ruler of the Sindhus, Jishnu will come to thee (in the evening). Dispel thy grief and the fever (of thy heart), O king, and be thou graced with prosperity.'”
>>Sanjaya said:-
Narr:- ‘The #HANDSOME Arjuna then, on that foremost car of his, unto which were yoked white steeds, and which was urged by Narayana himself, appeared on the scene. Like the tempest agitating the ocean, Vijaya, O foremost of kings, in that battle, agitated that host of thine teeming with horsemen.
>>YUDHISTHIRA AGAIN DESCRIBED ARJUNA'S BEAUTY:-
Narr:-Alas, we also shall today lay ourselves down on the bare earth, blasted by the glances of grief, cast by Arjuna filled with wrath. Dhananjaya liberal, intelligent, modest, forgiving, #handsome, mighty, possessed of well-developed and beautiful limbs, respectful to superiors, heroic, beloved, and devoted to truth; of glorious achievements’ the very gods applaud his feats. That valiant hero slew the Nivatakavachas and the Kalakeyas, those enemies of Indra having their abode in Hiranyapura. In the twinkling of an eye he slew the Paulomas with all their followers.
>>Chitrasena describes about Arjuna:-
Narr:- saying, ‘Let it be known, O thou of fair hips, that I come hither despatched by the one sole lord of heaven who asketh of thee a favour. He who is known amongst gods and men for his many inborn virtues, for his grace, behaviour, beauty of person, vows and self-control; who is noted for might and prowess, and respected by the virtuous, and ready-witted;
Narr:-; who is sweet-speeched; who showereth diverse kinds of food and drink on his friends and dependents; who is truthful, worshipped of all, eloquent, #handsome, and without pride; who is kind to those devoted to him, and universally pleasing and dear to all; who is firm in promise; who is equal to even Mahendra and Varuna in respect of every desirable attribute, viz., Arjuna, is known to thee.
>>Vaisampayana again said: –
Narr:- “Thus, O king, were born unto Pandu five sons who were begotten by celestials and were endued with great strength, and who all lived to achieve great fame and expand the Kuru race. Each bearing every auspicious mark on his person, handsome like Soma, proud as the lion, well-skilled in the use of the bow, and of leonine tread, breast, heart, eyes, neck and prowess, those foremost of men, resembling the celestials themselves in might, began to grow up.

PART 2)ARJUNA & KARNA,WHO WAS MORE HANDSOME
Altogether it’s difficult to say who was more handsome and attractive based on Personality and Looks.Let’s leave this decision to the women of those times,in my opinion women would be the best judges for a Man’s personality and good looks
### FOR ARJUNA –
>> Naga Princess Ulupi got love struck on seeing Arjuna-
Narrative:
when the mighty-armed hero, O king, was dragged into the bottom of the water by Ulupi, the daughter of the king of the Nagas, urged by the god of desire.
>> Urvasi,the most beautiful apsara got tempted and love struck for Arjuna –
Narrative 1:
At the command of Indra, and for my friendship for thee, and moved also by the numerous virtues of Phalguna, I am already under the influence of the god of love.
Narrative 2:
Having thus sent away the Gandharva successful in his mission, Urvasi of luminous smiles, moved by the desire of possessing Phalguna, took a bath.And having performed her ablutions, she decked herself in charming ornaments and splendid garlands of celestial odour. And inflamed by the god of love, and her heart pierced through and through by the shafts shot by Manmatha keeping in view the beauty of Arjuna, and her imagination wholly taken up by the thoughts of Arjuna, she mentally sported with him on a wide and excellent bed laid over with celestial sheets.
>> During Swayamwar,Druapadi gets filled with Joy when Arjun won her –
PS: Arjuna was disguised as a poor brahmin here.
Narrative:-
And Krishna beholding the mark shot and beholding Partha also like unto Indra himself, who had shot the mark, was filled with joy, and approached the son of Kunti with a white robe and a garland of flowers.
>> During his conquests,beautiful women used to stare Arjuna,praise him and shower flowers on him when he used to walk down the streets –

### FOR KARNA –
NOTHING
We don’t even know the names of Karna’s wives Vrushali,Supriya,Padmavati etc are all imaginary characters which bear no resemblance with Ved Vyas Mahabharat,the FAKE heroines added for OVER GLORIFIED so called ‘heroes’.
Even Duryodhan’s wife has been named in Purana as ‘Bhanumati’ and referred as Kalinga Princess in Mahabharat.But for lordy we have no clue who his wife is She is not named in Ved Vyas Mahabharat.
No love stories or exploits of Lordy Karna in Mahabharat
Names of Four wives of Arjuna are mentioned in Ved Vyas Mahabharat itself,while other variations of Mahabharat and Puranas mention even more names like Prameela,from Jaimini’s Ashwamedha.
But for Lordy Karna,his wife(s) are still in ‘IMAGINATION’ phase.
————————————————————
SO ONE CAN EASILY CONCLUDE THAT ARJUNA WAS BETTER THAN KARNA IN THIS ASPECT AS WELL,FOR HE WAS A CHOICE OF MANY BEAUTIFUL WOMEN
