Description
Ramayanam and Mahabharatham are two great epics of India. Rama figures as hero in Ramayanam, taking incarnation as a man. He personifies Dharma(Righteousness). Krishna figures in Mahabharatham not as the hero but as the central character. He was again Vishnu’s incarnation as a man. His aim was to assist Pandavas out and out and without him Pandavas would have been wiped out. But Pandavas emerge victorious ultimately. The methods handled by Krishna are not free from controversies. But they have to be understood without a prejudiced mind. This book depicts the entire role of Krishna in Mahabharatham with a view to understand Krishna correctly. Srimad Bhagavad Gita, the great gospel of Lord Krishna as God is the salient feature of this book.
Excerpts from reviews.
The reason behind Krishna’s so called dubious methods and his Philosophy are explained in simple language by the author.(The Hindu)
This concise volume on the role of Lord Krishna in the Mahabharatha is based on the author’s good understanding about the AVATHARA RAHASYA of the divinity and how God directly and unobtrusively makes things happen in the cycle of life.
fine selection and readable chronicling of events narrated in the Mahabharatham make the book interesting.
The author, a senior banker in his early days, deserves compliment for his painstaking work and simple style of narration.
This well-designed and elegantly got up book is a commendable effort by the author, and the book a valuable addition to the family library.(Tattvaloka)
