Relation Supposing Books कुरुक्षेत्र

Great Book that analyse the need and justification of war. A dialog between Yudhistir and Bhishma after the battle of Mahabharat was over. The victorious Yudhistir repenting the unjust actions in war

जहाँ छल से छद्म से गिराय गय वरन्य वीर आपसे, अभिमन्यू वध, दुर्योधन वध, हाय हम में बचा यहाँ कौन किस पाप से ? (In this war respected warrior like you have been put out by wrong means. Where both parties killed others eg Abhimanyu and Duryodhana by following unethical practices, all of us equal sinners)

And Bhishma tries to justify the actions:

पापी कौन? मनुष्य से उसका न्याय चुराने वाले ? या न्याय खोजता विघ्न का शीश उड़ाने वाला? (Who is the real sinner? He who depraves somebody from justice? Or he who destroys obstacles between him and the justice?)

Dinkar ji had rare courage to openly endorse the use of power over the philosophy "... To forgive is devine"

क्षमा शोभती उस भुजंग को जिसमे गरल हो न कीई उसको जो दन्त हीन विष रहित सरल हो (Only a poisonous snake can really forgive, there is no merit in the forgiveness by a poison-less weak snake. To forgive you need power)

Crit Containing Books कुरुक्षेत्र

In all honesty, I am not qualified to rate this book. Despite being a native Hindi speaker, I found the vocabulary to be very difficult. To give some context, I have read a few works of Premchand and I am pretty comfortable with the language. This one was high difficulty for me. I could not understand the meaning of much of the text and hence could not fully appreciate it. In the end I got the gist but would have loved to appreciate the choice of words as well. I give this book 3 stars but that

The national poet of India, Dinkar questions the futility of war in this epic poem. Yudhisthir, the eldest Pandav, after winnig the great war against his cousins, Kauravs, stands at the battlefield and feels nothig but despair. He understands that all the losses, deaths, wins have all been for nothing. In this desperation, he seeks answers and who else than Bheeshma, the great grand father of Kurus comes to the rescue. While on his deathbed, he has regrets of his own. Still, he helps Yudhisthir

Good one After Rashmirathi .

"vah kaun rota hai vahan itihas ke adhyaaya parjis mein likhaa hai naujavaano ke lahoo kaa mol hai...." A poem which starts with these lines and goes on to ask and answer more questions -"pratyaya kisi boodhey kutil neetigya ke vyaahaar kajiska hradaya utna malin ki sheersh jitna valaksh hai;jo aap to ladataa naheen katvaa kishoron ko magar,aashwast hokar sochataa ......shonit bahaa leykin gayee bach laaj saarey desh ki"The beauty of the language, expressed with such mastery. Always will keep
