Week 14: Reading Diary B

The Pandavas and Dhitrashtra go and visit Bhishma, who has the power to choose his time of death. Bhishma isn't angered at the Pandavas at all and talks to Krishna and passes away. Yudhisthira is in depression due to the death, he brings about. When sleeping, he sees that he is able to go to heaven, but finds his brothers and Draupadi in hell and he curses the gods. He wakes up from that dream back in Kurukshetra and so he goes on with the coronation ceremony. Parikshetra, Arjuna's and Uttara's son, is born and is revived by Krishna. Arjuna's weapons were destroyed by Agni and the Pandavas and Draupadi abandon the world and head north, leaving Parikshetra as king.
