Imagine sweeping through green fields, floating five feet above ground, sun on your face as you

slide by on track to your

there,

the care in the world as you simply lean back. And before you know it, you're there.

This is how travels should feel and on our trains it does.

Avanti West Coast feel good travel. The stories of Mohabharata retold by Shudipto Bomik. Welcome dear friends to another day of the war,

Bheim killed the sashon and kept his promise.

We also heard how Urjun killed and unarmed and helpless Karna while he was trying to freeze chariot whale. Oh, Duryodhan was sitting alone in his tent contemplating. 17 days had passed and in those

handful of days he had lost three of his greatest warriors, Pishma, Throne and Karna.

He had embarked upon this war depending solely

on the might of this sea,

but the ponder was shattered his dreams.

Bishma and Drone were old and neither of them gave their best to fight the Pandavas. Their death didn't perturb Duryodin as much as the loss of his dearest friend.

With Karnas fall, Duryodin knew the war had already slipped away from his grip. It was only a matter of time before

Judishir and his brothers would claim complete victory and take over the throne of Astinapur.

Duryodin felt lonely and a deep feeling of despair overwhelmed him as tears rolled down his cheeks.

Just then, Crippacharia, Ashwathama, Shalea and Krita Varma entered his tent.

Duryodh was in no mood to welcome them. He sat still with his head bowed.

Crippa Charia broke the silence. My dear Duryodhan, I think the time has come to revisit our options.

scriptures also dictate that when one is weakened in battle, it is advisable to negotiate a truce with the enemy if we

declare a ceasefire and request the Pandavas?
