The Glory Of Kurukshetra

It is the tenth night of the great war between the Pandavas and Kauravas. Bhishma, the venerable patriarch of the families, lies fatally wounded on the plains of Kurukshetra. On his deathbed he offers Radheya, his nemesis, a chance to rule the Kuru kingdom by capturing Yudhishthira. In the Pandava camp, Yudhishthira, a reluctant warrior, tries desperately to hold his allies together and escape capture without appearing to be a coward. Meanwhile, his young and impulsive nephew, Abhimanyu, a warrior prince, dreams of glory and yearns for a chance to save the Pandava cause. The lives of these three warriors, Yudhisthira, Radheya and Abhimanyu, collide brutally on the thirteenth day. A story of how stories are created, how fact becomes fiction, how history becomes mythology and how men become legends, The Thirteenth Day re-imagines India's greatest epic like never before.

Wars are kinder to men, for they are given a chance, in the battlefield, to showcase their prowess at weapons and strategy-making – either to emerge victorious or to die valorously. The very act of fighting a battle washes them off their earthly sins, securing their position in the heavens. But what about the women? Burning silently inside, anxious and afraid, guilty and grieved, passive and powerless, they remain silent spectators of events so momentous that turn their lives upside down. These women lose battles without fighting them. And then they keep burning inside, long after the pyres of the vanquished and the flambeaux of the victorious have fizzled out….. What if Gandhari didn’t blindfold herself just out of devotion for her future husband but at her powerlessness to prevent herself from a fate similar to Amba’s? Did Kunti ever overcome her guilt over Karn? Did Draupadi learn to sympathize with the maidservants and the prostitutes she was compared to in the open court or did she only think about herself? Did Subhadra learn to live with her guilt of having slept off mid-way during Arjun’s explanation of the Chakravyuh? Did the cold-shouldered Hidimba forgive the Pandavas? What must have been going on in the mind of Duhshala, the only princess of Hastinapur, when she had to support her infant grandson while reigning over the empire of Sindhu alone? What about Bhanumati, that unfortunate widow of Duryodhan? Could Uttara the child-widow ever learn to see Abhimayu’s reflection in Parikshit? A story of the unexplored thoughts of these powerful women, who lost inner battles bigger than Mahabharat and struggled in silence to endure with more strength each time life knocked them down!

It is my hope that this book will help all humans understand just exactly what Buddhism, Ketuloka or Krishtaya is and apply its principles, according to the uniqueness and level of their respective understandings, for the improvement of their lives. Christianity/Catholicism was mankind's first and oldest worldwide religion. According to author Gene Matlock, Christianity merely stepped into the shoes of an ancient existing worldwide religion of the same name. The infant Church did not begin to call itself Christianity until two or three hundred years after it was established. Before the Great Flood, Krishtayana was brought to India from Eastern Siberia by a highly civilized Turkish tribe called Kurus or Krishtaya. The Kurus were the world's first highly developed civilization, predating India, Egypt, and Sumeria. After conquering India, the Kurus went on to conquer the world, including Middle America. The Caribbean Indians told the Spanish that their gods were the Kurus-Rumani. Nearly all the Indian tribes of both Americas will find their respective tribes' Turkish and North Indian origins in this book. But what happened to keep Turkey from receiving credit as the founder of all human civilizations as well as the first religion? Christianity-Mankind's First Worldwide Religion! clears up many mysteries and shows that Jesus Christ really was all that Christians have been taught he was.
