So many things have been written already and the last ome is really remarkable!! I think it happened ofcourse! Not a fantasy or something it can be. As far as being biased or so is concerned i must say that even if two ppl go to watch a movie and aslked the story, they'll tell with different aspects and views. Similarly, the one who wrote it had a view to assess and think. We can exaggerate some of the things but we can not absolutely form!!

In my view, it happened. There are historical facts available to establish this as well.

However, the storyline is biased. The entire thing is written to show that Pandavas were best and Kauravas were worst. The fact is that Kauravas took pride in the fact that no one slept hungry in their kingdom and they were better emperors than Pandavas. Mahabharata was essentially a story of a family which fought for property. It got hyped because of following reasons: -

  1. The number of people involved and killed
  2. Complexity of the plot. Everyone was expert in what they did, be it Shakuni, Duryodhan, Krishna, or Arjuna.
  3. Shrimad Bhagwat Geeta

Well, you are right! 

The battle was between Pandavas and the Kauravas. The Kauravas were defeated, so obviously this tale was penned down by the Pandavas, and hence this is somewhat biased!

Jaidev Jamwal
from New Delhi

I don't have any doubt that it happened. There are too many proofs related to places, astronomical events detailed there to beleive otherwise. Also, I'm really amused by people who say this " The Kauravas were defeated, so obviously this tale was penned down by the Pandavas, and hence this is somewhat biased!" In 99% of cases they have been influenced by that story in HIndi textbook of CBSE which was so full of inaccuracies and patently false facts that it didn't even deserve to be in a textbook In that story, author bemoans the "fact" that Duryodhna's real name was Suyodhan. Actually Duryodhna mean "One Who iS difficult To Defeat in Battle". While Suyodhna will mean it's exact opposite, that is "One who is easily defeated in battle". Refer to name of Goddess Durga :)

 

Whatever is written in Mahbharta is not as Black & White as in Ramayna, but there is no doubt that Pandavas were oon the right side. I can debate and point out most of the fallacies in the arduements of people who still beleive in that juvenile attempt at story writing in that textbook.

 Just for sake of another example, Just because he had lies Yudhistra had to go to hell for a shotrt period.

For their occassional "Adharmic" acts,  Pandavas had to lose all their children by hands of Ashwathama

For indulging in a bit of lies, Krishna dies an accidental and painful death by the hands of a hunter. His whole clan was wiped out later.

 

In nutshell, Mahbharta is one of the greatest epics ever written for a reason. Don't just diss it as a "history written by victors" because it's cool to say so" or "it's politically  correct" or "our textbook says so"

Jaidev, I'm not sure if this remark is pointed to me. But just to clarify I have not commented anything based on the knowledge gained from TV. I have studied from a school which is known for its education based on Hindu culture, run by a well-known organization.

My comment was based on the fact that history is always biased, no matter what! This is the reason Hitler is cursed for killings of jews, but no one talks of US who dropped bombs in Japan affecting generations.

As far as the name is concerned, Duryodhan was the original name and Shri Krishna used to tease him by calling Suyodhan. Tell me who will keep a name like Suyodhan for his son?

Moreover, I did not say that its just an epic written by victors, I also talked of Shrimad Bhagwat Geeta which is greatest book of learning so far. Mahabharat has a lot of teachings, but it also is a story of a family fighting for property.

Ritvik Gautam

Jaidev sir, you are absolutely right, I was introduced to Mahabharat by the CBSE book, but I have even read apart from that book. That comment of mine is actually inspired from a book I'm reading - The Secret of the Nagas by Amish Tripathi. In all of our historical evidences, we have seen a "Good vs Bad" battle, while it's not actually that way. Both the sides are neither good nor bad. They simply have different way of thinking or different ideology. Sometimes even opposite. In this battle one of the two wins and the other gets defeated. Now, obviously the winner accounts for the tale, and hence most of the times portray themselves as the good and other as the evil, as they themsevles believed so. While actually it's not so. In my view, something similar too happened with Mahabharat. I'm sure it's one of the greatest epic ever.

This was one thing. The other thing I want to say is that I don't deny the fact that this actually happened. I just doubt that it happened in the way we are showed. There are so many things that seems unrealistic in today's time. I just doubt that it actually happened that time. For eg. Draupadi is considered as the "emerged" daughter of Drupada. This is unrealistic for me. What I believe is that such facts were moulded to make the story more interesting. Like, a grandmother tells the story to her grandson or grand-daughter. So to make it more appealing and to grab their attention such things were included. That's how I think.

I'm sure you two have much more greater knowledge. What I think might be completely wrong. But this is my understanding. I'd be happy if you correct me. 

@VSB. Mahabharata is ascribed to Sage Vyasa, but he made Lord Ganesha to write it. But the literacy wasn't high that time. This was passed on verbally.

Most of our thoughts are imported or forced to import from west. They have denied what they did not know. For all the questions related to our culutre, please check the work of Rajiv Malhotraji. I feel him the real intellectual warrior, who is non stop fighting against the digestion of our culture. 

Also, if possible try to visit places which are described in Purana, Mahabharata, Ramayana and try to find archiological proofs. Practically, it's very difficult but if you find some archiological resemblance, you will understand rest of the things as true or false. Fortunately, I could find some old archiological mysteries near jungles and tribal area here, from that time I believe on our scriptures more. Unfortunatetly, I can't devote much time to this now.

 

Second proof : This is written by Veer Savakarji in book Hindutva. The logic is the dynesty of kings given in many puranas and in Mahabharata or Ramayana is same. Surya Vansha, Chandra Vansha, Yadavas, Paurava, Kaurava, and many more. Nobody can write such long sequence in many different epics, which is same everywhere. 

Second question : // Was this possible to write for a human being to create this topic? //

Yes it's possible. The Indian Sages have Ritambhara Pragya which is awakened by Tapasya.

@VSB - To avoid any confusion I used the word 'OPENLY' anti Hindu for communist Authors, we can refer books and find the truth about their hatred towards Hindus and Sikhs.

In my view, this really happened. But this tale, has been re-told, generation by generation, verbally. And so as it was re-told, the accuracy was lost, and to make the story more interesting, it was modified, into somewhat more fancy.. Just like a fancy fairy tail, with a few unrealistic things.

Mohini Puranik

@Ritvik - What makes you give emphasis on Verbally? I don't mean to follow Mahabharat blindly, but I mean not to follow anything blindly. 

I am currently referring edition of Mahabharata published by Geetapress, Gorakhpur, with Sanskrit and Hindi Translation. Hindi translation is more impoartant to study Indian spirituality because English does not have many concepts which are in Indian spirituality. The so called verbally spread tale is divided in six parts, in which every part is almost of 2000 pages. The person who has written done this work is Sahityacharya Pandit Ramnarayandatta Shastri Pandey, 'Ram'. From some months I have suspended the reading because, the spiritual concepts are beyond my grasping level. 

I tried to imagine the people who were spreding verbally such high level Sanskrit, must be great Scholers. But it's true, such stories are found in Adi Shakaracharya's biography, where most ordinary women used to talk with each other in Sanskrit and used to discuss Brahman, Gyana, Moksha and used to debate in Sanskrit.

Also, we can't ever say science is perfect, because before something new is invented, it is supposed as superition or never existed in the world.

As per me its just old folk-lore ..so old that we call it epic .. 

 

Have we ever got proofs about the kingdoms, the palaces, the demons and gods as portrayed in the mahabharath?? And all i know is, for the next 1000 years or so, everyone in India will keep hearing about Mahabharat for sure ..

It wasn't directed at you, Just the general. The posting format in this forum is slightly confusing.

 

Ritvik

Ca't disagree with what you said, but as Mohinee said, there is a lot of disinformation in perception of  Indian history. I don't mean the usual exaggerations and impossible legends that creep into ancient epics like Mahabharat and Ramayna. But the distorted history that  is being force fed by  foreign sponsored 'historians'

At one hand these people keep on printing new theories on how Troy was real,  Christ came to India, Tamils are originally Christians who were corrupted by 'Aryans'. But at the saem time they keep distorting Indian history by saying that Indian epics are just stupid myths. A man can walk on water, another has visions of God, another ggot word of god written on sone tablets ...these things are real and beyond doubt, but Indian epics are a bunch of false tales. I find this very annoying and at the risk of sounding "intolerant", anti-India. People need to see past this smoke screen created by vested interests

 Regarding Suyodhan, that is what I wanted to say. The author of that stupid story in textbook  didn't even knew the meaining of the name and children with highly impressionable minds were conned into thinking that Pandavs distorted even his name. That whole chapter was a bunch of bullshit and didn't deserve to be printed on used toilet paper. But still many self-proclaimed 'independent thinkers'  who want to show their 'intellect' quote points lifted directly from that story. don't know whther to laugh or cry on that.

I am not much into trying to dig into the facts of the epics. Whatever be the reason for their being written - as history or as myth - they have messages to convey on righteousness and on how to live a good life. Whether we accept the epic itself to be fact or whether we accept the words of archeologists and/or historians, as ordinary people we end up believing hearsay. Too often have scientists of all hues propounded theories with absolute confidence and then retracted them for me to believe in their words with any more confidence than the words of the epics themselves. (In as small a matter as the best treatment for someone who is on fire, it was long proposed that smothering the body was better than pouring water. Only recently they changed over to thinking that pouring water is better. If in such a mundane thing doctors can be so wrong I cannot see how historians can confidently assert anything about what they read from ruins!) My approach to epics is only related to what they say about 'Dharma'. Period.

As a matter of academic interest, what does Duhshasan mean? Something equally laudatory as Duryodhan?

And, btw, for a history written by the victors, the Mahabharat has too many incidents showing the Pandavas in a poor light - the killing of Bheeshma, Drona, Karna and Duryodhan for example!

TF, situations change when you are involved in such wars. We can say this because we are away from it. But the feeling of a  victor and knowing the impact it has on generations, its not possible for a human to be impartial.

Next, these books are not written by people (who're involved) themselves but by their followers etc. And this is where comes the element of biasedness.

@TF: For a Kshatriya of yore, the most heinous fault is to attack or kill an enemy who is not in a position to fight back - such an act branded him a coward. That is reputed to have happened in the case of Bhishma, Drona and Karna. In a further case, Arjuna is reputed to have killed Bhurisravas, who was engaged in battle with Satyaki and did not even consider the possibility of Arjuna attacking him. Further, post the war, Arjuna is unable to safeguard the womenfolk of Dwarka from the attack of dacoits after the death of Balram and Krishna. The worst negative is the one of Yudhishtir staking Draupadi in a game of dice - something that everyone considered as shameful! I'd say that if you were to consider the Mahabharat as history written by victors these were the first things that would have been glossed over.

@CA: It is easier by far to write a fake history where the victors do nothing questionable than to first have them do something questionable and then justify them.

I prefer to see the tale as a series of lessons in morality and, to me, it is utterly irrelevant as to whether the incidents happened at all or happened the way it is written in the epic.

True, but it's reserved for honourable people who deserve it.  Karn inspite of his persumed righeousness plotted with kauravs in numerous despicable attempts to kill, Humiliate Pandavs. The major one was killing of Abhimanyu. His numerous below the belt actions led Arjun to kill him while he was trying to get his chariot back on track.

@Jaidev: We seem to be talking here at cross-purposes! Seems to me like you think I am trying to point out faults in the Pandavas and you are taking up the cudgels to justify them. My point is restricted to saying that if the Mahabharat is seen as being written by the victors to suit themselves then they would not have let their questionable actions have a place in such a fake history. Period. I am not exploring the rights and wrongs of the acts of the Pandavas nor do i intend to enter any such debate!

Krishna was a God, but had numerous weakness. Ram instead of being Maryada Purshottam showed weakness more than once. Why do you think, humans who wrote Indian epics had no blind devotion ?

MOhammed, Christ weren't even Gods, just prophets

Rambling Alert:

 Ramayan is set in Satyug, an age of righteousness and truth while Mahabhart is set in slightly corrupted times of Dwapar Yug. Therefore the characters in both epics show the prevelant social conditions.

 In Ramayan, Bharat denounces his own mother in order to get his elder brother Ram  to accept back his throne, which Ram refuses just to honour his father's word.

In Mahabhart, we have a somewhat similar incident when Bhishma gives up his rightful claim to crown of Hastinapur and takes up a vow of chastity in order to releive his father of a moral dilemma. By the way, this vow of loyalty to Hastinapur's throne was the reason why Bhishma fought on Kourava's side. It was his loyalty to the state which took preference over his loyalty to 'just' cause.

When we consider claims of Pandavs and Kaouravs on the throne, there is a bit of confusion as both seem to have an equal claim. Without going in to further details, Pandavs did ask for only half of the Kingdom (or 5 villages) before declaring war. Also, they had peresumably forgiven Kauravas for their cheating at the Chaturang. Apart from Bhim's vow of drinking Dushasna's blood.

 

In nnutshell, Mahabharta is a story of flawed humans in a flawed age. Even Yudhishtra, an avatar (?) of Dharmraj had to lie at times and suffer hell for a while for it.Krishna inspite of being a God, had a painful end and clan wiped out. But both epics have one thing in common, they both teaqch us to fight the evil no matter what our beliefs are. Hope that Indian govts uses these teachings against the paki terrorism that keeps pricking us.

Sorry about that. Looked fine when I posted it. Anyhow, a video channel which hosts videos matching events in Mahabharat with recorded cosmic events
