THE MAHABHARATA, A MAJOR SANSKRIT EPIC OF ANCIENT INDIA REFERED IN
HINDUISM. IT IS WRITTEN BY SAGE VYASA. THE MAHABHARATA WAS MAINLY
WRITTEN BETWEEN THE THIRD CENTURY BCE AND THE THIRD CENTURY CE.
THIS TEXT PROPERLY REACHED ITS FINAL FORM BY THE EARLY GUPTA PERIOD
( 4 th CENTURY CE ). THE MAHABHARATA WAR TOOK PLACE ABOUT 5,159 YEARS
AGO. THE STORY OF MAHABHARATA IS ABOUT THE BATTLE BETWEEN TWO
GROUPS OF COUSINGS, MAINLY NAMED THE PANDAVAS AND THE KAURAVAS TO
GAIN SUPREME POWER AND RULE THE KINGDOM. IT IS ALSO ABOUT TAKING
RIGHT ACTIONS AND ELIMINATING EVIL ONES FROM ONE’S LIFE. THE
PANDAVAS WERE MAINLY NAMED AS YUDHISTHIRA, ARJUNA, BHIMA, NAKULA
AND SAHADEVA WHO STRUGGLED VERY MUCH ALONG WITH THEIR MOTHER
KUNTI. LORD KRISHNA ALSO HAD A VERY BIG ROLE IN THIS. THE MAHABHARATA
WAS ORIGINALLY KNOWN AS JAYA. THE YOUNGEST PANADAVA SAHADVA HAD
THE POWER TO SEE INTO THE FUTURE. THE MAIN MESSAGE OF THE
MAHABHARATA IS TO BELIEVE IN ONE’S DUTY CALLED DHARMA.

I had a very good friend in my class with whom due to
some reasons, diff erences arose and we stopped talking
with each other. One day I came to know that he was
facing financial problems. So I contacted him and after
that I came to know the reason of his problem. I talked to
my parents and persuaded to helm him so that he could
be out of that problem for which my parents agreed.
With my small help, he was out of the woods.
MY INCIDENT IS SIMILAR WHICH WHAT HAPPENED WITH
THE PANDAVAS AND THE KAURAVAS . THE PANDAVAS
HELPED DURYODHANA WHO WAS IN HARD TROUBLE .
EVEN THOUGH THE KAURAVAS WERE THEIR BIGGEST
ENEMY , THEY STILL HELPED DURYODHANA AS HE WAS
VERY CLOSE TO HIM . REMEMBER, ENMITY BREAKS
HEARTS APART, BUT LOVE ASSEMBLES THE PIECES .

◦The idea of drawing this
picture is taken from the
lesson “ THE LAKE OF
QUESTIONS ” on page
no. 95. When
Yudhishthira was about
to drink water from the
lake, a deep voice
boomed and said, “Do
not drink from this lake.
This is the lake of life,
you can only drink from
it only if you can answer
my question.”
PASSAGE MASTER
My favourite passage in the book is passage no. 5 on page
no. 97 from the lesson “The Lake of Questions”. In this
passage, a yaksha, the guardian spirit of the lake of
questions and a gruesome-looking creature appeared in
front of Yudhishthira and ordered him to answer the
questions of death and life, before Yudhishthira drink of
his waters. I liked this passage the most as the questions
asked about life and death are very motivational and true.
These questions make me change the outlook of my life
and in my opinion its very valuable to think about these
questions.
