The Pandava Princes: Pandu`s Five Brave Sons (Vol. 626) by Amar Chitra Katha - 2008

Amar Chitra Katha/ACK Media, 2008. Softcover. New. Wise Yudhishthira, strong Bheema, Skilful Arjuna, brave Nakula and Sahadeva - five expectionally talented brothers whose youthful exuberance made their kaurava cousins very jealous. Things only got worse when Duryodhana found that everyone wanted Yudhishthira as king. It was their courage and skill that helped the Pandavas princes survive several murderous plots. And as a bonus, they won themselves wonderful wives! The Mahabharata is essentially the story of the Pandavas and their cousins, the Kauravas. Around the theme of their rivalry and feud is built an epic which has influenced millions of Indians over the centuries. In the process, the sons of Pandu have become heroes to the nation. The heroes of the Mahabharata are life-like in that they have their faults and foibles. But while their shortcomings give them their human appeal, their achievements gave them heroic stature. All through their life they faced difficulties and hardships brought on them by fate as well as by the flaws in their characters. But they triumphed over them because they had faith in themselves and, most importantly, in God. Valour and courage are the qualities most associated with the Pandavas. But they were also marked by humility and charity without which they could have never won the divine friendship of Krishna. Printed Pages: 32.
