Mizuho Okita, "Introduction to the Mahabharata: An Introduction to Indian Mythology" - A commentary recommended to grasp the whole picture of the great epic, the source of Indian culture.
This book is a recommended introduction to the Mahabharata, the great Indian epic poem that provides an overview of the Mahabharata.
The Mahabharata is also famous for the Bhagavat Gita, the pinnacle of Indian thought, which is preached in this great epic poem.
I will discuss the "Bhagavat Gita" in the next article, but it is because of the story of the "Mahabharata" that this gem of thought was born.
I will be reading this epic and the Bhaktabat Gita as well. I found this book very helpful to get the whole picture of this epic that is so long. I recommend this book for beginners to learn its flow with ease. I highly recommend this work to anyone interested in India.
