It's in haryana... Also known as dharmakshetra... Sorry net band hua so took time to reply

With our Hindu puranas, some of these questions are left unanswered simply because they do not matter. If people spend their time debating whether Karna or Arjuna was the greater warrior, which wife of Arjuna was his favorite, etc, they are losing the biggest message of the epic, which is far more important. It doesn't matter whether one believes Lord Krishna was a strategist or God. As long as they are receiving the message he delivered in the epic, they are free to their own opinion. If people spend their time bickering over the unimportant aspects of the epic, instead of understanding the message that Lord Krishna was trying to spread for humanity, all they will derive is temporary entertainment as if they're reading any other storybook, but they won't gain the deeper, more significant message of the epic which strives to help people live a better, more fulfilled life.

Nice Post Amrita!👏👏👏...Thank for Sharing this one..

Probably somethings are only meant to be accepted & not questioned...no one would ever know what actually happened & the mystery behind it..

About Mahabharat being a fact or a fiction, someone said, if it truly happened on the soil that's great if it didn't that's even greater as it is astounding for smeone(Ved Vyas) to conceptualizer this complexity of rights and wrongs.

But i do believe that the Mahabharat actually happened & the Gita is the Biggest proof we have i guess..it gives us knowledge & is a guide to righteousness n moksha..it throws light on our karmas & how we pay for them - this birth or next, what we ought to do & what we ought not to..it shows us how to attain peace & Spirituality..

The very fact that all the issues, correct inheritor, respect for women etc still are very pertinent, and that this scripture can very well be a text book for every day life even after 5000 years is a testament to the visionary and genius Ved Vyas is.

I don't know whether MB is true or not but I know that this is a replica of today's society there
relatives fight for property and even plot and kill each other,
even today, caste and the background counts to show ones ability.
Child suffer the most for parent pre marital affairs.
Bold(in +ve way), beautiful women face many obstacles, insults.
Rich and powerful person gets everything they want in what every way possible and others suffer (either some or big) for their comforts but still stay clam.
People still are that selfish that they can't put others pain above their personal importance.
and any more.

This is not above anyone but in general. I feel even today what we see in fact many time either big or small be play politics to get what we want but that looks every small to us was be just give importance to us and our priorities and we belief that it is not that big that it will not harm anyone.
