This famous and marvellous Sanskrit poem occurs as an episode of the Mahabharata, in the sixth-or 'Bhishma'-Parva of the great Hindu epic. It enjoys immense popularity and authority in India, where it is reckoned as one of the 'Five Jewels,' -pancharatnani- of Devanagiri literature. In plain but noble language it unfolds a philosophical system which remains to this day the prevailing Brahmanic belief, blending as it does the doctrines of Kapila, Patanjali, and the Vedas.
