KALYAN MURPHY: I did my Hindu school homework, can I go out now
DAD: Not until you finish the #Mahabharata
KALYAN: ‘Focus on the work, not the fruits thereof’
DAD: Don’t you Gitasplain me, young man!
Last Sunday, had the pleasure of seeing #Mahabharata at the Shaw Festival, #Canada. If it tours near you, don't miss it!!

Went to see part I of the Shaw Festival’s production of “Mahabharata” today and am walking away with one (okay, there are more) message sticking in my head: “They live in harmony because they share the same truth. When we do not share the same truth, war is inevitable.” Meanwhile, here we are living in a world where everyone feels entitled not only to •have• their own truth, but the right to force it on others. There’s some hard wisdom in these old stories. #ShawFestival #Mahabharata #Truth
