Fall in love and have children? I must read on, Master Storyteller! ! ! I would give this a 10 but the voting booth is not working but you know I would give this a thousand tens if I could!

In this episode unprecedented courage and relinquish of Devabrata @ Bhisma has been inscribed hauntingly. In order to avoid predicament from progeny Devabrata took swear to keep celibacy. I quote... ''More, I would lead a life of celibacy Dedicated to the cause of my nation; I will not allow till my last breath Misfortune to cast its shadow over it. This is my word, come what may! The skies acknowledged this pledge By sending unprecedented lightning And thunder. From the heavens Flowers were showered on him, For this unprecedented courage He shall be known as Bhisma hereafter. Interesting depiction. Enjoyed.
