1. Kama’s superhuman courage to challenge Arjuna to a battle is admirable.

2. When he was told by Bhishma that he should give his enmity with the Pandavas and not fight them as he himself is a Pandava, Kama told him that he couldn’t be disloyal to Duryodhana whose salt he had eaten. Even if he had to give up his life he’d fight the Pandavas as he was indebted to Duiyodhana for his love and trust. This showed that he was loyal.

3. When the wheel of his chariot stuck in the mud, he called on Aijuna to honour dharma and not take advantage of his accident and attack him. Lord Krishna taunted Kama for the number of occasions when he had himself violated dharma. Kama could easily have surrendered to Aijuna or run away from fighting him. Instead, he showed great courage and presence of mind and tried to stun Aijuna by sending him an arrow of great power to win a respite and set the chariot wheel free.

4. When Krishna was denouncing him for having violated dharma, he had the discretion npt to say a word, but listen to him with his head bent in shame.

5. Kama is known for his generosity. He couldn’t refuse any one any gift. When Inndra asked for his earrings and armour he gave it to him readily.
