The Relevance of Mahabharata V

Mahabharata, is the subject of discussion in this Track. There is nothing in Mahabharata which does not amply cover our complex and challenging life in this world.

Swamiji discusses the episode where Draupadi is staked by Yudhishthira in the game of dice. Draupadi refused to accept the verdict that she was staked and argued how she could have been staked after Yudhishthira had already staked himself and lost and had become the slave of Duryodhana. Although she did not get any satisfactory answers, she stood her ground and stood firmly on her own freedom.
