John Kaldawi was inspired by Mahabharata, where the authorship is attributed to Vyasa, which is a narrative of the Kurukshetra War and the fates of Pandava and Kaurava princes, who both claim to be the first in line to inherit the throne, the result of which Pandava was victorious.
Doing more research, John learned that Mahabharata was traced back to Vedic times which are before 3rd century BC. The battle produced complex conflicts of friendship and kinship and family loyalty and duty, and at the end the death of Lord Krishna, and the beginning of the Hindi age of Kali Yoga. Kali Yoga is the 4th and final age of humankind in which great values and noble ideas are lost, and people heading towards complete dissolution of morality and virtues.
John Kaldawi also learned that Mahabharata is one of the most widely use holy text in India and is considered as the most precious jewel of Hindu literature. It offers one of the first instances of theorizing about "just war", such as no attacking people in distress, using only just means and just cause, and fair treatment of the captives and the wounded.
