As the sun drives away the darkness, so does this Bharata, by its discourses on Dharma, Artha, Kama and Moksha, drive the ignorance of men. As the full moon with its mild light opens the buds of the water-lily, so does this with the light of Sruti expand the human intellect. The whole house of the womb of nature is properly and completely lighted by the lamp of history which destroys the darkness of ignorance. This work is a tree, the chapter of contents is its seed, the divisions Paulama and Astika are its roots, the Sambhava is its trunk, the books Sava and Aranya are the roosting perches, Arani is the knitting knot. Virata and Udyoga the pith, Bhisma the main branch, Drona the leaves, Karna its beautiful flowers, Sailya their fragrance, Stri and Aishika are its cooling shades, Shanti its great fruit. Ashwamadha is its immortal sap, Asramavasika the place where it grows, and Mausula is the epitome of the Vedas. This tree will be highly respected by all virtuous Brahmans. This tree of Bharata will be as inexhaustible as the clouds and be the means of livelihood of many illustrious poets. Sauti continued: I shall speak to you about the ever lasting, fruitful and flowery productions of this tree. They are of pleasant and pure taste, and they are to be tasted even by immortals."@en }
