Marjorie Hakala joins us for the finale to Adi Parva (the book of the forest)
The Pandavas are just about done with their twelve years in the forest, but poor big brother Yudhishthira has not been doing as well as he’s claimed. Though the family has forgiven him for that terrible day that led to their banishment, he has still not forgiven himself.
Days before their twelve years is up, the four younger Pandavas drink from a yaksha’s lake despite the yaksha’s warning, and immediately fall dead. (oh dear) Yudhishtira arrives at the lake, and though parched, heeds the yaksha by answering a series of riddles.
Azure and Marjorie take a stab at some of the riddles to see how they would do.
