Nonviolence in the Mahabharata

- Siva's Summa on Rishidharma and the Gleaners of Kurukshetra

Bag om Nonviolence in the Mahabharata

This book explores the notion of non-violence in the epic Mahabharata. In examining gleaning as an ecological and spiritual philosophy nurtured as much by hospitality codes as by eating practices, the author analyses the merits and limitations of the 9th century Kashmiri aesthetician Anandavardhana that the dominant aesthetic sentiment or rasa of the Mahabharata is shanta (peace).
