Mahabharata: Moksa-Dharma-Parvan Volume Two

The Moka-Dharma-Parvan of the MahbhrataThe great battle at Kuruketra is over and the surviving warriors gather around the fallen Bhma in order to draw upon his wisdom. They begin by asking about kingship and governance, before moving on to spiritual philosophy and the practices that lead to liberation.This discussion forms the Moka-dharma-parvan - part of Book 12 (the nti-parvan) of the Mahbhrata. The subjects discussed are wide ranging but the principal focus is on renunciation of the world, the philosophy of Skhya, early Vaiava theism, and probably the earliest teachings we have on the techniques of meditational yoga.
