Serial Telecast on Indian TV in the 80’s. What Homer’s ILIAD is to Greek Civilization and the great classics of yore to different nations of the world, The MAHABHARAT is to India. Written by Rishi Ved Vyasa, the ancient phislospher-thinker who was known to be the fountain of all human knowledge, it has been translated into many languages and even presented in ballt form in western and oriental countries. But the MAHABHARAT is not an abstruse philosophical or religious tract. It encompasses all shades of human nature from the utterly base to the completely divine; its high point is Lord Kishna’s Message to humanity, the Song Celestial-the divine GEETA, acknowledged to be the quintessence of all knowledge embodies in the Hindu ethos.
