Hi everyone! Today I review Volume 5 of the BORI Critical Edition of the Mahabharata . This book covers the Bhagavad Gita; and Days 1 to 12 of the war - where Bhishma falls and Drona takes charge.
The war at Kurukshetra has begun in earnest. We learn of Amba's story and Shikhandi's transformation. The final preparations for the war are made. Just before the battle Krishna shares his wisdom with Arjuna (Bhagavad Gita). Then the battle begins. This book was an emotional rollercoaster, as we get to understand the undercurrents that impact the relationship between the older and younger generations of Kurus.
There is a lot more action than philosophy in this volume - and also many valuable life lessons on how to actually treat the LGBTQIA community with respect and dignity.
