Kurukshetra War

The Kurukshetra War is a key event in the Indian epic, the Mahabharata. It depicts a 18-day battle fought between two groups of cousins—the Pandavas and the Kauravas—over rightful inheritance and power. This war symbolizes the struggle between dharma (righteousness) and adharma (unrighteousness) and involves significant characters such as Lord Krishna, who serves as the Pandavas' charioteer. The conflict results in immense loss of life and explores themes of morality, duty, and justice, making it a profound allegory for human conflict and ethical dilemmas.
