This is understandable, because Ashwatthama himself was the son of a teacher of the Pandavas and Kauravas namely Rishi Drona. Ashwatthama an antagonist character in favor of the Kauravas in the war Bharatayudha.

Drona The True Teacher

Drona The True Teacher. Drona is one character who is actually the protagonist of the epic Mahabharata. He was the teacher of the Pandavas and Kauravas. Drona figures are a reflection of a teacher who teaches many things to students, it's just the character Drona led to favoritism among students. Favorite disciple of Rishi Drona is Arjuna.

Drona in the Mahabharata epic was a son of Rishi Bharadwaja. He has a wife named Krepi. The results of his marriage to Krepi, Drona had a son named Ashwatthama. Drona has a sense of profound affection to Ashwatthama. Because too unfortunately against the son, to the extent that the kingdom wants his best friend Drona Drupada the order submitted to Ashwatthama. In Javanese wayang story, character Drona has another name that Kumbayana. Resi Drona in the puppet described as someone with a disability because of Drupada got beat by a duke named Gandamana.

Karna The Virtuous Knight

Karna The Virtuous Knight. For you fans of the legendary story of the land of India, certainly know about Karna. A little more information that has been circulating on the internet you have to add insight. In this paper, I will be a little peeling on the life of Karna. Because the character is a character in the Mahabharata story tritagonis. Because the character itself is a noble knight and good at archery. Many people who thought that Karna is a villain, and I think it is very incorrect assumption.

Look at the early life of Karna's own figures, he is the son of Kunti was the mother of the five Pandavas. While still a teenager, trying to cast a spell Kunti given by Rishi Druwarsa. At that time, comes the god Surya who gave boy. God Surya knew that Kunti was unmarried and not pregnant may, therefore, provide the name of the god Surya boy was as Karna means ear. Karna Kunti gave birth through the ear. Kunti who did not want his secret is revealed, then discard Karna. Because the baby was found by a charioteer Adirata the Hastinapur kingdom. Growing up, Karna increasingly tough in the science of archery, Karna then given by Duryudana kingdom. Karna knew would swear reciprocation will be friends forever Duryudana.

 
In terms of defense, Karna figure would be viewed as an evil because he is always defending Duryudana harm to the Five Pandavas. However, if you are aware that Karna is a man who knows will thank you. Because who does not have anything to pay gratitude to Duryudana with sincere devotion. Because the virtuous knights who provide professional service as a whole and the totality of the person who kind to him. Because these figures can hopefully be an inspiration to us all.

Mahabharata Figures Hundred Kauravas

Mahabharata Figures Hundred Kauravas. In the Mahabharata epic, a hundred Kauravas are antagonists of the Hastinapur royal master. The kingdom is supposed to belong to the five Pandavas. The father of one hundred Kauravas is Drestarasta. Drestarasta is the older brother of Pandu, who became king. Drestarasta blind only entitled to temporary replace Hastinapur throne to the eldest son of Pandu old enough to be king. 

Regardless of the dispute about the kingdom of Hastinapur, called the hundred Kauravas because Drestarasta children numbered one hundred. This is because Drestarasta wife, Gandhari, god has blessed to be able to give birth to a hundred children. Initially, Gandhari gave birth to a lump of flesh just upset him. In the Indian version, the piece of meat is given to the Begawan Abiyasa to be included in a jug, amounting to one hundred and born of the Kauravas. However, the version of Java, which is born of the flesh blobs trampled to split into small meat then each piece of meat into a child. The eldest brother of the Kauravas is Duryudana who later became king of Hastinapur. Moreover figures Kauravas famous among other things, Dushasana, Dursala (Dursilawati), Citraksa, Citraksi, Bomawikata, Wikataboma, Wikarna, and Yuyutsu. 

Hundred Kauravas in the Mahabharata story should end defeat due to their own greed. The values ​​of the hundred Kauravas crime can not be separated from the love of parents and the excessive incitement of the uncle of the one hundred Kaurava Sengkuni. Similarly, information about the hundred Kauravas, hopefully can provide benefits to you.
