GRIEVE not for the DEAD; story of SRINJAYA by Narad Muni
Grieve not for the dead is told by all the spiritual Gurus; who so ever has come to this earth has to die and leave this earth. Even the GOD has come to earth in reincarnation (avatar as Ram and Krishna ) has to die after completing HIS mission so all of us. The story of Srinjaya is taken from : http://sushmajee.com/mahaabhaarat/mbh-stories/6-18-srinjaya.htm story is told by Vyaas Jee to Yudhishthir when he was grieving for Abhimanyu. This story has been repeated in brief by Krishn too when Yushishthir was grieving in Shaanti Parv for the warriors slain in the battle. This story comes in Bhavishya Puraan, 4/6 also in reference to Bhadraa fast The story can be read on the above link , however there a few more interesting short stories told by Narad ji and described in Mahabharat which are less known to most people. The concept of immoratality is well known to all of us .
