To The
Mahabharata is the "book of books". It is an encyclopedia of ancient
Bharat (India). That is why it is said, "What is not in the Mahabharata is
not in Bharat (India)". Expanse and depth of thoughts and ideas in this
book are bewildering. The highest and lowest of human nature are painted in
glowing colors. The stories of gods, men, demons, birds, beasts, insects and
plants are spread on a big canvas. Conflicts of emotions and call of duty, the
wisdom and foolishness of human endeavors described in the Mahabharata, stun
the readers. The variety of characters and situations are perennial source of
inspiration for politicians, poets, writers and scholars. Even for saints and
sages. The Mahabharata is full of interesting and instructive fables. Much before
the Aesop's fables, and the Panchtantras, the Mahabharata presented gems of
political, diplomatic and humanitarian thoughts and ideas through the fables.
They are used to impart valuable ethical and social lessons. The fables from
the Mahabharata provide us practical knowledge and also elevate as to higher
ethical standards.
