Ninth volume (Santi Parvamu - part1) of the "Mahabharatam - 12 volumes set by Sri Somayaji Saripalle"

Santi Parvam is the treasure chest in Mahabharata full of Dharma, Neeti and Tatva subjects. Knowing Karna being his big brother Yudhishtira gets dejected for killing him. He refuses to get coronated as the Emperor and stays in unrest even after Krishna's and Vyasa's Tatva bodha. At last, Yudhishtira finds solace from the elaborate discourses by Bheeshma. Bheeshma gets the ability to remember Dharmas and discourses on those by the grace of Lord Srikrishna while lying on the bed of poking arrows. Look into the detailed summary below for more on this.
