Selections from the Mahabharata: Re-affirming Gita’s Call for the Good of All

The societal message that the Mahabharata is trying to convey is presented in this book in the form of a ten-point exhortation for the benefit of everyone. Since this message is principally presented, according to the terminology of loksamgraha, in the Bhagavad-Gita (which is the center-piece of the Mahabharata), the style of presentation that has been used here is Gita supporting, which means that it is indirect as well as selective. This book comes with a straightforward explanation of what it means in English, laid out in the form of eighteen chapters.
