Short treatise on the Mahabharata from the author of Concise Bhagavad Gita. On the surface, the Sanskrit epic – Mahabharata – appears to be a thrilling tale of familial conflict that took place many centuries ago. However, deep down at its core, beyond all literary ornamentation, it is verily an exposition on the purpose of human life; a metaphorical story that exists primarily to house the philosophical treasure-chest of the Bhagavad Gita. Mahabharata Codebook unravels this hidden aspect of the ancient story for modern readers. A summary of the core story is also provided before the metaphorical analysis for the benefit of those readers who are not familiar with the epic. Overall, this short book will be a useful addition to your collection of spiritual textbooks.
