The Mahabharata of Veda Vyasa
is the longest recorded epic of the world. With almost 100,000 verses, it is
many times as long as the Iliad and the Odyssey combined and has deeply
influenced every aspect of the Indian ethos for some 4,000 years. The main theme
is the Great War on Kurukshetra, but the epic teems with smaller stories, and
other stories within these, all woven together with a genius that confounds
comparison. At its heart, it contains Krishna’s immortal Bhagavad Gita, the
Song of God. The Mahabharata embodies the ancient and sacred Indian
tradition, in all its earthy and spiritual immensity. Famously, ‘What is
found here may be found elsewhere. What is not found here will not be found
elsewhere.’ Many believe this most magnificent epic to be the greatest story
ever told. Yet, the only full Indian translation of the Mahabharata into
English is the 19th century one by Kisari Mohan Ganguli. More than a hundred
years have passed since Ganguli accomplished his task, and the language he
used is now sadly archaic. This new 12 volume series retells the great epic,
line by line, in fresh, easily readable English prose. With it, we hope to
bring the Mahabharata alive again, for the contemporary and the future
reader.Â
