ABSTRACT

‘Therefore Fm asking you to consider my words: set aside this talk about battle with him. Come around to what I’ve said.’ These were Dhritarashtra’s words that Gandhari supported and requested him, We are bent with age and blind in both eyes. It is proper to listen. Accept your father’s advice, my son, They say, ‘Don’t pass over the words of your elders.’ 2 Abandon your war effort, my son. Go back to your tent. Our dead boys are far gone. It is enough if you remain. Can we bring the dead back? 3
