Ek sarovar ke kinare.
Chaar mrit bhai.
Aur ve prashn jo har yug mein goonjate hain.
Pandavon ke vanvaas ke antim dinon mein, pyaas se vyaakul chaar shaktishaali yoddha ek rahasyamayi sarovar ka paani peete hain.
Aur tatkaal mrityu ko praapt hote hain.
Keval Yudhishthir bachte hain.
Dharmaraj.
Satya ke pujari.
Unke saamne ek Yaksh prakat hota hai.
Rahasyamayi aur shaktishaali.
Uske prashn pareeksha nahin hain.
Ve jeevan ke mool satyon ki khoj hain.
Is jagat mein sabse bada aashcharya kya hai?
Sachcha sukh kahaan milta hai?
Manushya kaun hai?
Dharma ka asli arth kya hai?
Yudhishthir har prashn ka uttar dete hain.
Saral shabdon mein.
Par itni gehraai se ki ve uttar hazaaron saal baad bhi man ko chhoo jaate hain.
Yah pustak Mahabharat ke is amar prasang ko aaj ki peedhi ke liye prastut karti hai.
Saral bhaasha mein.
Aadhunik sandarbh aur vyavahaarik arth ke saath.
Pratyek adhyay ek khoj hai.
Ek darpan jo paathak ko uski hi sachchai dikhaata hai.
Yudhishthir ke uttar bataate hain ki sachcha gyaan kya hai, shaanti kahaan milti hai, aur charitra ka nirmaan kaise hota hai.
Ve sikhaate hain ki gusse par niyantran kaise paaya jaaye aur mrityu ke bhay se kaise mukt hua jaaye.
Aur ant mein, jab Yaksh chaar bhaiyon mein se ek ko chunne ko kehta hai, Yudhishthir ka nirnay dharma ki sabse badi paribhaasha ban jaata hai.
Yah keval kahaani nahin.
Yah jeevan jeene ka maargdarshan hai.
