In the battle of Mahabharata, the Pandavas were fighting the Kauravas to get back their kingdom. The battle was fierce and Yodhas from both sides were showing their valor and creating history everyday.
One day, in the absence of Arjuna and Krishna, Duryodhana created several circles of soldiers and moved forward towards the Pandava army. The Pandavas could only fight the outermost circle. The Kauravas chakra formation put the Pandavas in awe and created fear in the Pandava soldiers.
Yudhishter then approached the son of Arjuna, the brave Abhimanyu for help.

Yudhishter then approached the son of Arjuna, the brave Abhimanyu for help.
He said - O Abhimanyu! In the absence of your father and your uncle Krishna, you are the only brave-heart in the army to pierce through the Kaurava formation and save the prestige of Pandavas.
Abhimanyu said - O respected uncle! I know how to break the formation and move inside the circles. But I do not know how to come out of it. I need help on my way back.
Several commanders were planned to rescue Abhimanyu and enter the formation with him.
But in reality, Abhimanyu broke open the formation and raced inside. The Kauravas however did not let any other Pandava come with him and closed the formation again.
Abhimanyu was surrounded by the Kaurava army. He fought with great valor but gave up and died in the end.

Moral Of The Story
Jagadguru Shri Kriaplu Ji Maharaj tells us that Abhimanyu lived in an age when there were three Divine personalities on earth - Ved Vyas, Arjun and Krishna. They all were witness to the unjust death Abhimanyu went through. It was not death. It was murder literally. And each of the three had the power to save him from such a death.
However, they did not. This teaches us that we must go through the fruits of our actions (Prarabdha) even if we are related to an avatar of God. Although God has powers to help but He does not interfere with His own laws of Jag Vyapar.
