Beyond the Battlefield of Mahabharata : Fifteen Cantos of Tests and Learning

This interactive book offers a fresh, accessible way to explore the Mahabharata through 15 key sections, each with multiple-choice quizzes and detailed explanations. Rather than following the epic verse by verse, it highlights major events—from the Pandavas' final year in exile to Yudhishthira’s journey to heaven—making it easier to grasp the vast story and its deeper meanings. The questions test memory, motives, and plot points, while the answer keys reveal background, moral lessons, and cultural insights. Ideal for students, self-learners, or long-time readers, this book helps reinforce knowledge through active recall and prompts thoughtful reflection. Whether you’re revisiting Bhisma’s fall, Karna’s fate, or Krishna’s wisdom, each quiz encourages closer reading and a deeper connection to the epic’s themes of duty, justice, and spiritual growth. It’s suitable for classroom use, group discussion, or personal exploration—bridging traditional storytelling with modern learning tools.
