| Summary, etc | Retold in a simple and concise manner for young children, this edition of the Mahabharata brings alive the battle of epic proportions that has been the touchstone for generations of Hindus across the continents. The Mahabharata is the source of all lore and legend in the classical Hindu tradition. It brings together in an intricate tapestry great creation stories - the churning of the milk ocean, the decent of the Ganges - and favourite myths and fairy tales. All codes of law - moral, ethical, natural - are expounded and analysed in a wonderful richness of episode and detail. While the most well-known episode of the Mahabharata is the 18-day battle of Kurukshetra, the epic also gives the reader an insight into the working of the minds of people, their aspirations, ambitions and internal conflicts. And in doing so, this epic gives to the world a treatise on duties and the art of living, the Bhagvad Gita. One of the two major Sanskrit epics of India, valued for its merit and its religious inspiration, the Mahabharata is also an inspirational collection of tales. Every diverse bit of the epic is woven together to shed light on the central sky.<br/><br/>https://www.amazon.com/-/es/Sterling-Publishing-Co/dp/8120798643 |
