Reading the Mahabharata by the Tungabhadra#

In 2016, I spent a month in Hampi to read Bibek Debroy’s 10-volume translation of the Mahabharata. It was a life-changing experience, and I formed a bond with the author through correspondence ever since. I’d posted about my experience on Instagram, but I’d like to move all the posts here, for easy retrieval.

I’ve migrated my Instagram posts on reading the Mahabharata in Hampi, and I’ve reproduced the letter to Mr. Bibek Debroy in its entirety here.
