• The Mahabharata, Volume 2: Book 2: The Book of Assembly; Book 3: The Book of the Forest (Mahabharata (English Translation by Univ of Chicago Press))

    The Mahabharata, an ancient and vast Sanskrit poem, is a remarkable collection of epics, legends, romances, theology, and ethical and metaphysical doctrine. The core of this great work is the epic struggle between five heroic brothers, the Pandavas, and their one hundred contentious cousins for rule of the land. This is the second volume of van Buitenen's acclaimed translation of the definitive Poona edition of the text. Book two, The Book of the Assembly Hall, is an epic dramatization of the Vedic ritual of consecration that is central to the book. Book three, The Book of the Forest, traces t... [Read More]

  • Mahabharata: The Greatest Spiritual Epic of All Time

    Mahabharata, a part of the ancient Vedas of India, is a story quite unlike anything else. There are few books which have survived as long as this five thousand year old epic. Its enduring popularity is itself testimony to the profound wisdom contained in its pages. In fact it includes the Bhagavad-gita - a masterpiece of spiritual knowledge revered by millions worldwide - and is the narration of the factual events which surrounded the speaking of that illuminating text. Mahabharata thus deals with the activities of Krishna, the Supreme Person and author of the Bhagavad-gita. This gives it a un... [Read More]

  • THE MAHABHARATA: A Modern Rendering

    The Mahabharata is the more recent of India’s two great Epics, and by far the longer. First composed by the Maharishi Vyasa in verse, some 5000 years ago, it has come down the centuries in the timeless oral tradition of guru and sishya, master and disciple, profoundly influencing the history, culture and art of not only the Indian subcontinent but most of South-east Asia. At 100,000 slokas, couplets, it is more than seven times as long as the Odyssey and the Iliad combined: far and away the longest recorded Epic known to man, which millions also believe to be the greatest story ever told. T... [Read More]

  • The Mahabharata (10 vol Box Set)

    Dispute over land and kingdom may lie at the heart of this story of war between cousins the Pandavas and the Kouravas but the Mahabharata is about conflicts of dharma. These conflicts are immense and various, singular and commonplace. Throughout the epic, characters face them with no clear indications of what is right and what is wrong; there are no absolute answers. Thus every possible human emotion features in the Mahabharata, the reason the epic continues to hold sway over our imagination. In this superb and widely acclaimed translation of the complete Mahabharata, Bibek Debroy takes on a g... [Read More]
