Courage is the fragrance of authenticity.

anye ca bahavaḥ śūrā madarthe tyakta jīvitāḥ nānā śastra praharaṇāḥ sarve yuddha viśāradāḥ

Many other heroes there are who are prepared to lay down their lives for my sake; all are well-equipped with different weapons, and well experienced in warfare science

Bhīṣma is the embodiment of dharma, righteousness.

Duryodhana then started praising the the great Kaurava warriors. Duryodhana is embodiment of self-denial. His whole life was filled with deep inner conflict and painful reactions as he was fully convinced that he is a failure, the feeling of 'I cannot make it!' So, constantly he has to prove his failures to himself by destroying others, never creating anything by himself. He had no sense of guilt going to war against his brothers, as he desperately wanted to keep the kingdom for himself and did not believe that he would be safe as long as the Pāṇḍava princes were alive. Listen. If you are suffering with greed, your root pattern will be fear. If you are suffering with insecurity, your root pattern will be worrying. Understand, once the patterns are formed they act in a completely different way so that we can never discover them. Duryodhana's inner identity, mamakāra was rooted in deep fear and insecurity born from self-denial. Self-denial was Duryodhana's root pattern. And his outer identity, ahaṁkāra, the image he projected to others, was greed to possess, which led to anger, hatred, violence, and ultimately his destruction. His problem was not one of doing right or wrong. His pattern was might is right. Whatever he did was right, according to him. He was not a man given to deep thinking.

All incompletions boil down to just two patterns — violence and fear. Both are one and the same. When fear comes, violence comes. When violence comes, fear comes.

Incompletions are nothing but not looking at the fact and trying to pervert it, interpret it, manipulate it. All your plans to manipulate and exploit is incompletion.

Duryodhana tried to pervert, manipulate, push and pull as he wanted to possess and conquer everything. But victory remains as victory wherever dharma is, wherever Kṛṣṇa is. However, Duryodhana had no trust in many of the great warriors who had taken his side. Please understand, all distrust, all doubting others is self-doubt. This is the rule of thumb. When you are in incompletion driven by your root pattern, you will never be able to trust anybody. You will go on doubting others and you. All self-doubting is not having the right reason or adequate reasons. Duryodhana did not have right or adequate reasons for his action to wage the war. So, he constantly kept on doubting and distrusting others.

The child must be able to identify with the sources of inner conflicts and uncertainty within them.
