"Vanity & ego take away the sanity in human beings! They become arrogant & belittle others! It is no exception even in the case of famous heroes like Bhima & Arjuna! Bhima's search for the Saugandhika flower leads him to Hanuman waiting to test him! In his ignorance Bhima taunts Hanuman when he asks him to move the tail a little away & proceed on his way! Failing to move it even to a little bit Bhima realizes it is some great soul that is testing him! Hanuman reveals himself, blesses Bhima & shows him the way to get the desired flower! Hanuman' obsession for RAMA & Arjuna's pride in his archery are both removed by Krishna, when the Bridge of arrows collapses twice! A third bridge is built & Hanuman is unable to break it! Turning back Arjuna sees Krishna & Hanuman sees his Rama! The Lord admonishes both & blesses them! Hanuman, pleased with Arjuna for his valour says that he will remain in the flag of his chariot during the Kurukshetra war! That is the reason why Arjuna is called " kapidhwaja" the one with the Monkey ( Hanuman) Flag! Arjuna was saved because of the presence of Hanuman & Krishna soon after the war! Immediately after Hanuman left the flag & krishna got down from the chariot, the chariot of Arjuna burst into flames & was reduced to ashes! Such was the power of the asthras aimed at Arjuna! These incidents show that where there is god's Grace there is always safety & success!ll"
