    About this audiobook

    Part 3 of the three part series titled "Crux of Mahabharata for busy people"

    Continuing from part 2, in this part we will cover

    15.      Ashwatthama’s last minute bid to end the war

    16.      The Sun finally sets

    17.      The devil quoting the bible

    18.      One last act of deceit!

    19.      Was it really a war of righteousness?!

    20.      Why was Krishna right in doing what he did

    Mahabharata with 100,000 verses, and many prose passages, adding up to a phenomenal total of 1.8 million words is the biggest known Epic. Originally, based on a real story that took place 5000 years ago, was later put to words by Vyasa. The size of this Epic is so huge that it may need an entire lifetime to read and understand it.

    In this short book, Dr. King and Swami Satyapriya capture the essence of this great Indian Epic, providing lot of insights to how this Epic was actually meant to convey Dharma or righteousness by its author. In a very succinct way, the authors throw light on most of the major events in this story with an emphasis on its practical value. They also discuss the intricacies of right vs wrong.

    A great book for people short of time.
