This famous and marvellous Sanskrit poem occurs as an episode of the Mahabharata in the sixth-or 'Bhishma'-Parva of the great Hindu epic. It enjoys immense popularity and authority in India where it is reckoned as one of the 'Five Jewels ' -pancharatnani- of Devanagiri literature. In plain but noble language it unfolds a philosophical system which remains to this day the prevailing Brahmanic belief blending as it does the doctrines of Kapila Patanjali and the Vedas.Wilder Publications is a green publisher.
