The concept of the universal battle is a feature that is found across various cultures around the world. On March 17th 2018 New Acropolis (Main Centre) hosted a talk titled, “Mahabharata: The War Within.” The talk investigated the timeless mythology of the Mahabharata as applicable to our lives today; how might we fight our own inner battles, overcoming vices by using our virtues as our most powerful weapons. Taking inspiration from the glory and heroism of Arjuna, we too can perhaps engage with the Kurukshetra of our daily life.
