Mahabharata Unravelled: Raj Dharma, Matsyanyaya, Decolonisation of Minds |DU Lit. Fest|
"Mahabharata" the longest epic ever written, is a treasure trove of knowledge, that is still relevant, and needs to be retold over and over. While the first book "Mahabharata Unravelled" written by Ami Ganatra, was aimed to set the narrative straight about the Mahabharat and its characters, the second book focuses on the profound discourses present in the Mahabharat, particularly the conversation between Yudhishthir and Bishma on Rajdharma. But why is it relevant? Decolonization of our mind is essential in terms of the various aspects of governance, administration, justice, and security. As a Dharmic state, our central challenge is to overcome the 'Matsyanyaya', which is a law of the jungle scenario that arises without the presence of Dharma in governance and economics.

Thank god i am always a fan of krishna , he never accustom himself to rules and regulations or laws, he always do what he feels right, me as a child didn't have this thinking capacity but still admired him or we can say fascinated by him, but i am in no way comparable to him but still it's a pity when we can't become the hero we admired
We must read our scriptures ......TRUE Ami .
Hats off to Sangam Talks. Talks like these will go on to make a narrative-wave in favour of Bharat by presenting the chronological and true history of our motherland. Jai Hind !

Another thought provoking conversation. We need to decolonize our minds, it's the utmost priority because Macaulay is still winning on us and many are brain fogged to not see what's happening.

Great effort by writer. My heartiest congratulations to her to bring the immense knowledge of Mahabharata to all of us.
