Week 14: Reading Diary B

This epic as Buck tells it is really a story within a story. I love the tale is simply passed down verbally and there is no mention of the epic being recorded except in the minds of those who listen. I like how Yudhishthira is guilty about all the death caused on his behalf. I thought he dream was very strange, considering Duryodhana was in heaven and the rest of the Pandavas were in hell. I laughed when Krishna was upset with the new chariot because he didn't want something flashy. I was relieved at the end when it was explained the Yudhishthira's earlier dream was also a test, and he and his family ascended to heaven.
