The Practical Divine
At the conclusion of the Mahābhārata, an Indian epic about the Kurukṣetra War, tens of thousands are dead and only five brothers from the victorious Pandava clan and their wife—yeah, just the one for all five—survive. When these stories are recited in temples, the spotlight, predictably, is on the religious aspects: how one should live and act in accordance with the tenets of Hinduism. The pundits generally skip over the good bits: the carnage, the violence, and the polyandry, especially the polyandry. I recently read the Mahābhārata and found the book teeming with practical advice.
