Fall asleep to the calm, in-depth exploration of the most difficult question in the Mahabharata: Why Krishna Couldn't Save Abhimanyu.

It is the question that has haunted readers for thousands of years. Krishna is the Avatar—the one who guides the chariot, stops time, and bends reality. Yet when his own nephew, a sixteen-year-old boy, was trapped alone in the Chakravyuha, the divine charioteer was miles away. Was it a mistake? A tactical failure? Or something much deeper and more terrifying?
