Medha,lovely post as always. Very detailed yet interesting and easy to inderstand. I like your funny commentary as well.😆

I always had this question which is asked on many forums.. People think virat war section was added later on.. Otherwise,how can arjuna win battle singlehandedly but still struggle in kuru war ?

What is your take on it ?


To tell you the truth, I read the KMG, Crit.Ed, R.M and go by that simply.

Because the first ever copy was of only 800(?) verse!

After that, the compilation of Bharata and Mahabharat was done. Whatever we have today is collection of what the bards and Vyasa and his disciples put forth I would assume.

I don't have doubt that many things were added later, some might have been imagination, some passed down from Vyasa and his students and other people like the charioteers and bards?

This way if I start questioning as to what was added and what was imagine or was the truth, I would question everything. I would question Draupadi's existence. I would question Kauravas existence. I would question the detailed war of Kurukshetra.

I would question if this person had killed this person or was that person defeated by this one?

Everything, every line becomes questionable.

Obviously, there are claims that Pandavas did not exist at all. Kunti had no Godly sons. Pandavas are mere imagined characters to make the Kuru clan interesting.

Kauravas had no cousins and no draupadi married them.

So it is kind of pointless to worry about if this had happened or is this just imagination. Who knows, perhaps Vyasa was just an amazing novelist and wrote this awesome piece of literature featuring his own sons and their imagined children.

Or perhaps he had a whacky sense of humor, and Kauravas were not imaginary, just Dhritrashtras adopted children and he wrote this amazing novel featuring them as the villains to entertain them.😆 Duri jaan must have had a good laugh.

Paarth created a havoc in the battle field .The twang of gaandeev and the rattle of his car itself created a thunderous sound also the reverberation of devadatta...
He fought an army of mightiest car warriors who were supported by a herd of warriors and an ocean of soldiers alone.
I mean my Gandharva Brihannala fought the maharathis single handedly.
HE was a one man army...
against the ocean...
Perfectly said dear he is undoubtedly SARWASHRESTH DHANURDHAR even today.

Thanks Arijit007. That makes sense.


And yeah,if you go through Virata Parva, Arjuna is laughing while battling. After his battle with Drona, he lets the soldiers take Drona away while Arjuna simply turns to fight with Ashwatthama.
Dusashan comes, fights, flees ... Arjuna lets him, doesn't go after that "..."

Instead of shooting Duryodhana's face [ and go like Oops! i missed] he shoots at his crown!
Instead of shooting Ashwatthama, he does that thing where the arrow drops at Ashwatthama and other feet.

He says that he will not attack Drona if Drona does not attack him.

In Kurukshetra War,they were all fighting to kill.

Some of these parts are awesomely hilarious to read 😆 🤣


But not funnier than Uttara boasting about how he is going to defeat the Kuru Army and inquiring " Has that Arjuna came too?"

And when he sees the army, he is running away and Arjuna has to drag him around by hair and pick him up 🤣 what a kid ...

Arjun was quite succesfull during Virata war...He had a fair idea about the strength of the warriors he was going to face and he acted accordingly.I strongly believe that more than physical strength and abilities mental preparation is also important to win over your enemies..Kauravas did the mistake.Their calculations on the strength of opponents completely went wrong, and they had to pay for that.

Seeing that Abhimanyu married his sister,both Abhimanyu and uthara Kumar might be of the same age group..
