"Bhishma," the sixth book of the eighteen-book epic The Maha bh
rata, narrates the first ten days of the great war between the K
uravas and the P ndavas. This first volume covers four days from
the beginning of the great battle and includes the famous "Bh gavad
gita ("The Song of the Lord"), presented here within its original
epic context. In this "bible" of Indian civilization the charioteer
Krishna empowers his disciple Arjuna to resolve his personal
dilemma: whether to follow his righteous duty as a warrior and slay
his opponent relatives in the just battle, or to abstain from
fighting and renounce the warrior code to which he is born.
