Описание:
“Bhishma,” the sixth book of the eighteen-book epic The Maha•bh?rata, narrates the first ten days of the great war between the K?uravas and the P?ndavas. This first volume covers four days from the beginning of the great battle and includes the famous “Bh?gavad•gita (“The Song of the Lord”), presented here within its original epic context. In this “bible” of Indian civilization the charioteer Krishna empowers his disciple ?rjuna to resolve his personal dilemma: whether to follow his righteous duty as a warrior and slay his opponent relatives in the just battle, or to abstain from fighting and renounce the warrior code to which he is born.

Описание:
"The books line up on my shelf like bright Bodhisattvas ready to take tough questions or keep quiet company. They stake out a vast territory, with works from two millennia in multiple genres: aphorism, lyric, epic, theater, and romance." Willis G. Regier, The Chronicle Review "No effort has been spared to make these little volumes as attractive as possible to readers: the paper is of high quality, the typesetting immaculate. The founders of the series are John and Jennifer Clay, and Sanskritists can only thank them for an initiative intended to make the classics of an ancient Indian language accessible to a modern international audience." The Times Higher Education Supplement "The Clay Sanskrit Library represents one of the most admirable publishing projects now afoot. . . . Anyone who loves the look and feel and heft of books will delight in these elegant little volumes." New Criterion "Published in the geek-chic format." BookForum "Very few collections of Sanskrit deep enough for research are housed anywhere in North America. Now, twenty-five hundred years after the death of Shakyamuni Buddha, the ambitious Clay Sanskrit Library may remedy this state of affairs." Tricycle ”Now an ambitious new publishing project, the Clay Sanskrit Library brings together leading Sanskrit translators and scholars of Indology from around the world to celebrate in translating the beauty and range of classical Sanskrit literature. . . . Published as smart green hardbacks that are small enough to fit into a jeans pocket, the volumes are meant to satisfy both the scholar and the lay reader. Each volume has a transliteration of the original Sanskrit text on the left-hand page and an English translation on the right, as also a helpful introduction and notes. Alongside definitive translations of the great Indian epics 30 or so volumes will be devoted to the Maha·bh?rat itself Clay Sanskrit Library makes available to the English-speaking reader many other delights: The earthy verse of Bhartri·hari, the pungent satire of Jay?nta Bhatta and the roving narratives of Dandin, among others. All these writers belong properly not just to Indian literature, but to world literature.” LiveMint ”The Clay Sanskrit Library has recently set out to change the scene by making available well-translated dual-language (English and Sanskrit) editions of popular Sanskritic texts for the public.” Namarupa The second volume of “Preparations for War” seals the fate of the P?ndavas and Kurus. This book is the turning point of the entire Maha·bh?rata. The failure of diplomacy ensures war is now inevitable, and with this realization come dramatic arguments, miracles and temptations. The Maha·bh?rata explores timeless problems of humanity, and in this volume of “Preparations for War,” it explores the realities of human nature in times of conflict. The lust for power and bloodshed overwhelms all attempts at negotiation.Interwoven with these serious issues come beautiful accountsof divinities, magical realms and legendary marvels.

Описание:
After Bhishma is cut down at the end of the previous book of the Maha·bh?rata, the book which bears his name, Dury?dhana selects Drona as leader of his forces. Drona accepts the honor with Bhishma's blessing, despite his ongoing personal conflicts as mentor to both the P?ndava and K?urava heroes in their youth. The fighting rages on, with heavy losses on both sides. Furious and frustrated, Dury?dhana accuses Drona of collaborating with the enemy, but he replies that as long as ?rjuna is on the field, the P?ndavas will remain invincible. When ?rjuna is finally diverted from the main action of the battle, Yudhi·shthira entrusts ?rjuna's son Abhim?nyu with the task of making a breach in the K?urava formation. Abhim?nyu rampages through Drona's army, but at last is cornered by several K?urava warriors and finally killed by Jayad·ratha.

Описание:
The Book of Vir?ta details the P?ndavas’ 13th year in exile, when they live disguised in King Vir?ta's court. They suffer the humiliation of becoming servants; a topic explored both through comedy and pathos. Having maintained their disguise until the very end of the year, then their troubles really begin. Bhima is forced to come to Dr?upadi's rescue when King Vir?ta's general, K?chaka, sets his sights on her. Dury?dhana and the Tri·gartas decide to invade the defeated Vir?ta's kingdom, unaware the P?ndavas are hidden there. In the ensuing battles the P?ndavas play a crucial role, save Vir?ta and reveal their true identities. The book ends in celebration, with the P?ndavas ready to return from exile and reclaim their kingdom. However, the battles in “Vir?ta” foreshadow the war to come, proving it will not be easy.

Описание:
The P?ndavas believe they have completed the terms of their exile, though Dury?dhana claims that they did not live unknown for the full thirteenth year, since ?rjuna was recognized in the battle at the end of the preceding book, Vir?ta. While the P?ndavas and Kurus make their preparations for war they organize a series of embassies to negotiate peace. This volume constantly highlights the inevitability of conflict and the futility of negotiation. Most characters are concerned that war between family cannot fail to be sinful. Contained herein is the “Sanat·sujat?ya,” a philosophical passage to rival the “Bhagavad·gita.” Like the “Bhagavad·gita,” the “Sanat·sujat?ya” tells that karma will not chain one in the cycle of rebirth, if one refrains from desire. Through understanding the truth of non-duality, that the world is mere illusion, one is subsumed into eternal existence with Brahman.

Описание:
The Book of Liberation is perhaps the most enigmatic philosophical text from ancient India. Presented as the teachings of Bhishma as he lies dying on the battlefield, after the epic war between the P?ndavas and K?uravas, it was composed by unknown authors in the last centuries BCE, during the early period of world-renunciation, when peripatetic sages meditated under trees and practiced austerities in forest groves, and wandering sophists debated in the towns and cities. There has been no time like it before or since: such freedom of thought and expression is unparalleled in the history of the world. The freedom enjoyed by these ancient thinkers was not an end in itself. Above all this animated work is the record of philosophers seeking liberation (moksha) from a world they believed unsatisfactory. The speculation herein is but a means to an end, for its authors believed they could attain freedom from the world by knowing philosophical truths.

“The Book of Karna” relates the events of the two dramatic days after the defeat of the great warriors and generals Bhishma and Drona, in which Karna, great hero and the eldest P?ndava, leads the K?urava army into combat. This first volume of "Karna" depicts mighty battles in gory detail, sets the scene for Karna's tragic death, and includes a remarkable verbal duel between Karna and his reluctant charioteer Shalya, the king of the Madras, as they hurl abuse at each other before entering the fray.

Описание:
In one of the most famous passages in Maha·bh?rata, Dur·y?dhana, the heroic but flawed king of the K?uravas, meets his end when he is dishonorably defeated in battle by his arch-enemy, Bhima. Framing a fascinating account of the sacred sites along the river Sar?svati, the duel poignantly portrays the downfall of a once great hero in the face of a new order governed by Krishna, in which the warrior code is brushed aside in order to ensure the predestined triumph of the P?ndavas.

Описание:
In India's great epic Maha·bh?rata, the eighth book, “Karna,”; recounts the events that occurred during the mighty hero Karna’s two days as general of the K?urava army. This second volume resumes on the war's seventeenth and penultimate day. This will be a momentous day for the Bh?rata clans and especially for a number of their most distinguished heroes, with some of the epic’s most telegraphed events reaching their climax. Not only will the epic's most anticipated duel between its greatest champions ?rjuna and Karna be played out to its cruel and tragic end, but one of the more gruesome episodes in the epic will also take place with Duhsh?sana meeting the fate that has long awaited him since his brazen mistreatment of Dr?upadi in the assembly hall.
