Week 9 Reading Diary B: Narayan's "The Mahabharata"


  • Duryodhana is seriously evil. What is wrong with people! The Pandavas didn't do anything to him 
  • Dhritarashtra's indecisiveness of whether he likes the Pandavas or not is so annoying. There's nothing worse than someone who flip-flops all the time. How is this guy even king?
  • People are advising Dhritarashtra to do all different things. This guy should just tell them to all go to hell and make up his own mind (61)
  • The moment Vidura tells the Pandavas that they can return home and Yudhistira is contemplating it in his mind - storytelling post could describe the festivities and happiness of their new life, and now getting this news. How do you decide that?
  • What if Krishna hadn't been there to reassure them to return home?
  • What would Indraprastha be like? A beautiful futuristic city 
  • Tell the story of Sunda, Upasunda, and Tilottama (64)
Ulupi, princess of the serpent world. (Source)

  • Ulupi, princess of the serpent world?? Marries Arjuna during his exile
