Duryodhana

The single largest absence this programme has found in any tradition. The registry held all five Pandavas, their mother, their stepmother, their wife, their father, their uncle, their grandfather-figure, their teacher's rival's son, and five sons of Karna — and not the man they fight. A corpus that holds one side of the Mahabharata does not hold the Mahabharata.
