KNOW YOURSELF

1.  Bhishma lived in an illusive world and was very much attached to the material kingdom of Hastinapur. He was like the disillusioned cardinal Wolsey the man digraced by king Henry the eighth, who said ruefully ‘’had I served my lord with half the devotion that I showed this king I would not have come to such a sorry pass.’’ Duryodhana was scared that this wizened, old, and sanguine Bhishma would come to harm in this war and so he requested Dronacharya to protect him.
