You have nicely summarized the koan-like ending to the Hindu epic, The Mahabharata, where the "good guy" Yudishthira encounters his adversary, the "bad guy" Duryodhana", after the final scene. Most people don't understand that scene (and either did Yudisthira initially). Shakespeare makes exactly the same point in his oft-repeated "all the world's a stage" passage. Well done !


Thanks for the complement.
