Draupadi, the Woman: Epitome of Feminity and Feminism Draupadi - TopicsExpress



          

Draupadi, the Woman: Epitome of Feminity and Feminism Draupadi has five husbands - but she has none - She had five sons - and was never a mother … The pandavas have given Draupadi … No joy, no sense of victory No honour as wife No respect as mother - Only the status of a Queen … But they all have gone And Im left with a lifeless jewel And an empty crown … My baffled motherhood Wrings its hands and strives to weep. A long poem Kurukshetra, written by Amreeta Syam, conveys this angst of Panchali (Draupadi), born unasked for by her father, bereft of brothers and sons and her beloved sakha (friend) Krishna.
