Episode 53
Chandragupt Accepts the Blame of Mixing Poison in the Food
He said to Seleukas - "Now you have got the criminal, so free all the Indian soldiers, but Seleukas killed him.
Alexander said to Aambheek - "An enemy's power of hate is more powerful than the friend's power of friendship. Who always thinks about the enemy, he cannot do anything else."
Aambheek aid - "That Sakaalee boy seems to be known to me, like Chandragupt."
Alexander said - "Do not say that what you cannot do."
Seleukas told Alexander that the criminal has been found and those Indian soldiers were fasting so that they can live and Greeks die.

Chaanakya said to Amaatya - "What will you do now? Will you take me as a prisoner? Or will you let me continue my mission which I have started against Yavan?"
Amaatya said - "Up to here it is all right, but if you come in between Nand then I am standing in between you and Nand."
Chaanakya said - "Then you tell him that he should stop providing food to Yavan." Amaatya went away hearing this.
Purush Datt asked - "Aachaarya, Why didn't he arrest you?"
Chaanakya replied - "It was respect for each other."

Many Indian soldiers were arrested. Chandragupt killed the guard and freed Indians and asked them to gather people to fight against Yavan.
Mrignayanee was getting ready to go to Paataliputra, that her mother came to talk to her. She gave her a ring in which here was some poison. She was very sad on the whole affair. She told her daughter that she was sorry that she could not help her except to give this ring to her in case of emegency.

Chandragupt was in jail. People took him tied with ropes behind the horses. They asked him to to take bath in Vyaas River before he died, so he entered the Vyaas River to take bath.
Nand and Mrignayanee were also going to Paataliputra from the same route. Mrignayanee expressed her desire to worship Vyaas River. Nand allowed her to do that. She came to the banks of the river and prayed  - "Please send somebody who can free me from Nand."
The then Chandragupt also came out of the river. He was taken to Alexander.

Puru distributed lots of sweets among poor, so the guard said - "First we will examine these pitchers that whether these pitchers contain only sweets or they contain something else too."
"Why?"
"Because we have heard that your Royal Treasury is being stolen and sent out, that is why we have to inspect them first."
"Do it." But those pitchers had gold in them. So Puru killed them both the guards.
Indradatt sent those pitchers to Chaanakya and asked him what we should say about the killing of these guards?
Chaanakya said - "Tell them that Maurya had killed them."

Alexander had instructed Seleukas to kill Maurya. Seleukas told everything to Alexander about burning the Greek flag, Calasthenese said - "But you have not presented any solid proof of burning that flag?"
Alexander asked Chandragupt - "Do you have to say anything in favor of yourself?"
Chandragupt said - "I accepted this blame only to save their lives. He was beating them, so what could I have done in that situation? I did the same what I should have done. Seleukas was repeatedly asking his orders to kill them."

Episode 54
Chandragupt Enters Alexander's Security Force
Seleukas was about to beat Chandragupt more that a man came and said to him - "Do not beat him, he has not mixed poison in the food. We have mixed it. He is taking the blame on his head just to protect us. You don't have any proof that Chandragupt has mixed poison in the food. This is not justice."

Alexander said - "In our army everybody is same."
Chandragupt said - "But other people do not consider us the same."
One Yavan said - "Mahaaraaj, Free this Sakaalee."
Alexander freed him saying - "But who is criminal and who is not, our Zeus will decide this. Sakaalee will have to fight with our best warrior."
Chandragupt got ready for that on the condition that if he won then Alexander will have to free all Indian soldiers will get equal rights and all comforts.

Seleukas said - "But he is your personal guard, if he won, then...?"
Alexander said - "Then it is the matter of our honor that he should not win."
Seleukas announced - "This is Alexander's sword. Whoever will win, he will get this sword."
Both started fighting. Chandragupt was bleeding from his tooth. Seleukas had injured him while cutting his ropes to free him.

Chandragupt remembered Chaanakya - "The greatest weapon is wisdom (Buddhi) and knowledge (Vivek), then however adverse situation is there [one can win]. A true warrior is not identified by the knowledge of his warfare, but by his imagination."
So remembering this, Chandragupt hit him on his tender part, but Seleukas threw dust in Chandragupt's eyes.
"By attacking unexpectedly and against the expectations of the enemy, several battles can be won."
Because of being unable to see with his eyes, Chandragupt was saving himself with his "Dhwani Bhedan" skills and was fighting also with him. Once with his Dhwani Bhedan skill he caught his sword and felled him down.

Chaanakya got his army from Puru. The King asked - "Will this small army be able to defeat Yavan's so big army?"
Chaanakya said - "No, but we will at least be able to push him back."

Alexander said - "My father used to say "We select our friends, while our enemies select us. So from today, what is your name? Yes, Chandragupt will stay with us in our security force." Aachaarya Sukhdev and Aambheek were also standing there, they also heard this.

The King Puru said - "Who battle with injustice and bad policies, they get destroyed. I am ready to be destroyed. There is no injustice or bad policy to save one's own motherland."
A feast was organized on this happy occasion.
Chaanakya asked help from Poras and he readily agreed for it, but he said - "But this can be fatal also?"
Chaanakya said - "Yes, But this poison will work slowly." Chaanakya gave the poison to Poras.

Aambheek was very angry. Sukhdev said - "I wanted to make sure whether he is our Chandragupt or not; and if he is then Chaanakya must also be around, and he will surely go to Nand. Maurya is born from Dhanaanand's strength and Chaanakya's cunningness."
Aambheek asked - "What do you want to say? That this Chandragupt is Maurya?"
Sukhdev said - "Yes, And if we tell this to Alexandrr then he will give us many rewards."
Chandragupt also came there at the same time and said - "I knew that you were searching for me." Then he told them he was Chandragupt as well as he was Maurya too.

Episode 55
Attempts to Kill Alexander
Chandragupt told Sukhdev and Aambheek that whatever was happening there was happening by the order of Chaanakya and Nand. He advised Aambheek that he should changer his side (from Alexandra to Chaanakya)
Aambheek said - "But you are our enemy."
Chandragupt said - "Our Guru has told us that one should face the enemy with a united force. Domestic quarrels can be solved later, and these Yavans will go from here one day."

Seleukas was dissatisfied with Alexander that he had employed one Indian as his guard.
Alexander explained to him that only those people will protect our army, then he asked after pondering over a little - "Is it not that this Chandragupt is Maurya?"
The then Poras came there and told Alexander that Maurya had robbed Panchnad's Royal Treasury, and he has threatened also that if the food supply was not stopped to Yavans, it will not be good.
Alexander said - "We want to cross Vyaas River in two days time."

Sukhdev said - "Alexander has promised that as soon he will cross the Vyaas River, the whole Magadh kingdom will be of Aambheek."

Calasthenese went to meet Chaanakya. Chaanakya said - "Whoever King considers himself the god, he should be changed. You should check that whether your King is taking decisions for himself or for the country. I think Alexander should return to his country."
Calasthenese told him that at the time of Alexander's birth, a Divine voice said that he would be  great King."
Chaanakya said - "Now he has become that King, now no more bloodshed. Whatever you want to do, do it, but no  lore bloodshed. All soldiers want to go back to their homes. You go and tell this your King, and for this reason if you have to kill some people then kill them, whether it is of the King, does not matter. And this is the appropriate time for this. Country is greater than other things."

Poras was sitting near Alexander.
Sukhdev xaid - "Aambheek will kill Puru and will marry Puru's daughter."
The then some soldiers came and took Sukhdev and Aambheek.
Puru was about to give poison to Alexander that Calasthenese came there and he asked Puru to go out of the room. Puru took the cup of wine and went outside.
Calashthenese asked Alexander what was the matter? he tried to explain him that for how long you will be agreeing with others (yes to others)?
Alexander said to Calasthenese - "Only you have to write about me after me. That I was a great king, and I was a great warrior, so that people should remember me in this form only. This is your responsibility."
Calasthenese gave poison to Alexander and said - "History is for tomorrow, you should worry for now. All soldiers are tired. They all want to go home. Please let us go back home."
Alexander said - "You should write about me thus, that people should know me as Devtaa." and he went to pray.

Sukhdev and Aambheek came to Chaanakya.
Chaanakya said - "Now these soldiers will stay here only till revolution will take place.
Purush Datt said - "Aachaarya, If Puru and Calasthenese failed on their mission....?"
Chaanakya said - "Important is effort, not the objective."
Badar Bhatt came to meet Calasthenese and delivered his message - "If you are not successful in your mission, then I have one more alternative."
Both Calasthenese and Puru mixed poison in Alexander's wine.

Episode 56
Chaanakya Himself Gives Poison to Alexander
Alexander wants to invite some revolutionary kings, but Seleukas refuses him to leave him alone. Calasthenese and Puru assured Seleukas that till they were there, nothing would happen to Alexander. Chaanakya, Chandragupt, Puru and Calasthenese all were there. Alexander asked Chaanakya about his problems. Chaanakya told him that "it was all because of Divine anger."
Alexander said - "But the son of god cannot commit any sin, because the Devtaa sitting inside him will not allow him to commit any sin."
Chaanakya said - "What is sin? Killing innocent people, killing children, rape of women, all these are sin."

Seleukas said - "Devtaa love us, because we are Macedonians. We are the best, and that is why we make everybody our slave."
Chaanakya said - "That is why all this is happening to you."
Alexander asked him - "How to please the Devtaa of your land?"
Chaanakya took out a thorn, it was a poisoned thorn, and said - "I will do a Taantrik Yagya for you, I will have to take your 2 drops of blood for it."
Seleukas said - "How can I trust him? I will not allow him to take your blood."
Puru said - "Take my blood."
Calasthenese said - "I will take his blood."
Chaanakya gave that thorn to Calasthenese and he took out the blood of Alexander.

Falling star meant the birth of a Devtaa in Athens.
Chaanakya stopped callisthenese  "Wait Calasthenese, this Yagya can be successful only when all people have belief in it, but it seems that these people do  not believe in it, that is our Yagya will not be successful. But they are not at fault in this, because they are protecting their King. Sweat is greater than blood, Calasthenese, You give me the 2 drops of King's sweat, we will not take his blood."
Calasthenese gave 2 drops of sweat of Alexander to Chaanakya and Chaanakys did the Yagya.
Chaanakya said - "For whatever time you will be on the land of India, you will have to face troubles. If you had not crossed Vyaas, Maurya will attack you and you will be killed. I heard that only one Maurya had created so much disturbance in your camp, so if many Maurya will come here, what will happen then? What you have to do and what not to do, decide yourself." After saying this Chaanakya went away.

Calasthenese said - "We should go back now."
Seleukas said - "We will cross Vyaas only tomorrow."
Alexander felt dizzy, Seleukas asked him - "What happened to Emperor?"
Calasthenese said - "Anger of Devtaa."

Aachaarya said - "Now we will attack them, because at this time they are scared."
Chandragupt asked - When we will attack them?"
Chaanakya said - "Tomorrow at sunrise you see towards East, you will get your answer."

Alexander fell sick, so his Royal doctor told him that it was the effect of some poisonous food or drink.
Seleukas again said - "Tomorrow we have to cross Vyaas River. And he himself should deliver this message to his army, so make him all right till tomorrow."
But then Seleukas had to announce that "tomorrow we will cross Vyaas River. We will start tomorrow."
But nobody wanted to cross Vyaas River, because they thought that this was all Devtaa's anger on them, that the emperor was not even able to move.

Chaanakya's people were busy in their preparation to attack.
Indradatt came and asked Chaanakya - "Why didn't you prick the thorn in Alexander's body?"
Chaanakya replied - "Because I saw a kind of fear in his eyes. Come, tomorrow you will have to lead the army."
