This book is written around the themes of guilt, regret and grievance, three feelings that are faced by every person in their life or when they are near the end of their life. Mahabharata, one of the greatest epic showcases the themes of guilt, grievance through its multiple characters. The author has used the same concept of guilt and regret during their end days of their life, where each and every character of Mahabharata recalls their bad and good deeds of their lives as a movie and places them on the equilibrium of karma. They all try to defend their actions with references to Dharma, but on the other side, their self-realization, regret and guilt make them accept the truth and Question themselves 'did they really follow the Dharma'?
In this book, each character of Mahabharata, from Samrat Bharat to Arjun, represents their journey of life and their deeds, which they performed through their own knowledge and understanding of Dharma and through a continuous fight between their consciences. This inner struggle led them to perform such Karma and placed them in the situation of guilt and regret. They accept their mistakes, which led to the massive bloodshed of Mahabharata and a question arises in each character's mind-could they stop this war? And if they could, why did they not attempt to stop it?
