Week 10: Reading Diary B

Narayan's Mahabharata
Reading Notes: Pages 133-179
Notes and Thoughts:

• Duryodhana really should have listened to his mother and Krishna. Mother's are ALWAYS right and I have a feeling that Duryodhana will realize this sooner than later
• I like that Krishna and Arjuna use teamwork to kill Jayadratha. The discus is a smart idea to make Jayadratha come out of hiding
• Wow, the way that Drona dies is pretty sad. It's a smart move on Krishna and Bhima's part though.. Naming an elephant Ashwatthaman and killing it is a very smart idea because now it makes the sentence the truth when Drona asks Yudhishthira if Ashwatthaman is dead
• Karma seems to be doing the right thing when Duryodhana dies, he has caused a lot of misery and bloodshed. 
• I wish there had been more about Krishna and his divine form. Not pleased about how Krishna and all his people die, but I feel like this how most of the Indian Epics end
