The Mahabharata is one of the cherished heritages of the whole Hindu world and forms the basis of a Hindu’s thoughts and his moral and ethical ideas. It is a sublime poem that shows the triumph of virtue and defeat of vice. This book stresses on the moral values inculcated by this great epic.
Learn to feel yourself in other bodies, to know that we are all one. Throw all other nonsense to the winds. Spit out your actions, good or bad, and never think of them again. What is done is done. Throw off superstition. Have no weakness even in the face of death. Do not repent, do not brood over past deeds. Be aazaad (free).
-Swami Vivekananda
