This is wonderful! Thank you! I’ve never felt the Mahabharata was so accessible to me. And I’m happy that I already know some of the characters! 😊

I have no idea why this was recommended to me but I'm hooked. This is beautiful and the story is captivating.

[avocadolottery]

Thank you for your service! While I am vaguely familiar with the Bhagavad Gita as a westerner; this was my introduction to the Mahabharata and I am grateful for your efforts to share with others - it is truly a maginficant and captivating story. Sat nam.

[everdinestenger]

Thank you very much. I read the Mahabharate years ago and I thought it very beautiful but I was too young to understand it so I am going to watch your entire video. And no AI voice.🎉

Excellent insight into the bodybuilding culture of ancient India! Those guys were totally jacked!

But seriously, I loved every minute of this video. The Mahabharata is an amazing story and gives so much insight into a time and place where people had a much stronger sense of the divine than we have today. Thank you for making this available.

[AItv]

For those who think it's mythology im Hindu and we believe that this is our indian history. It also included Bhagwat Gita . The song of Lord Krishna ultimate reality

[srivthefour]

Finally with lots of "real" side stories, very honestly someone put the epic, which has more stories once this captivating "root" version is heard.
Very pleased ... & satisfied.
Before this, when I was a kid, I read and imagined all this, with parts of pictures in Amar Chitra Katha in India.
