- Summary:
- Mahabharata is a comprehensive Puran, projecting all aspects of human life- spiritual, political, administrative and social-as these existed in ancient period. This book Protocol in Mahabharata compares the same with the prevailing aspects in modern times. Spiritual protocol indicates protocol within Gods, seniority in Gods, God-being relation; political protocol indicates the duties of a raja in war and peace, his relation with the subjects and other rajas; laws of war and peace and international agreements. In administrative protocol the raja is said to be bound with the advice of his Secretaries, of course with the veto power. The administrative set up and judicial working appears to be more comprehensive than what it exists today. The social protocol envisages the strict following of the Varnasharama Dharma and any breach was punishable by law. For the sake of maintaining flow and continuity, aspects not having direct relation with protocol have been included in the text to make it a précised book of Mahabharata. The book is particularly informative and educative in view of the content of Bhagwat Gita and Bhishama-Yudhisthra discussions covering all aspects of human life, whose following shall make life most enjoying.\
