When everyone in the assembly, except Krishna, gave up and had lost their faith, among the gathered Brahmanas, one stood up.
The Brahmana was calm yet confident, which caught the attention of everyone. Some Brahmanas were supportive, while others feared that if this Brahmana failed, then the entire Brahmana community would be mocked.
Slowly, the Brahmana stepped forward. Krishna quietly observed the scene, as he had recognised that the Brahmana was none other than the Pandava brother, Arjuna, who was one of the greatest archers.
As Arjuna walked towards the Kindhura bow, the kings and princes mocked him because even the great warriors of Aryavarta had failed to complete the challenge.
While some Brahmanas blessed Arjuna, some remained anxious and uncertain.
