"Navigating the Mahābhārata, the most important religious epic teaching of Hinduism, can be a daunting task. The Queen and the Avatar and Keys to the Mahābhārata do more than simply help one to see the patterns of the rich tapestry which the Mahābhārata weaves: they help each individual reader to see the subtle ways in which his or her own destiny is touched by the profound meaning of the lessons, the myths and the spiritual themes embedded in the text. Dominique Wohlschlag is to be warmly congratulated for ""bringing home"" the Mahābhārata for serious spiritual seekers, whatever be their religion. ​Reza Shah-Kazemi, author of Paths to Transcendence: According to Shankara, Ibn Arabi and Meister Eckhart (World Wisdom, 2006), Common Ground between Islam and Buddhism (Fons Vitae, 2010), and several other works in the fields of Comparative Religion and Islamic Studies.​"
