When Sun shines, it not only brightens our day; it enlightens us, our soul, cleansing it of the gloominess that the night's darkness had brought in. Similarly the epic saga of Mahabharat is a profound exploration of the human condition, ethics, and governance that continues to offer timeless wisdom to this day.
Just like the seed that falls on fertile ground yields a fruitful harvest, similarly every aspect of life blooms with distinction in the giant expanse of Mahabharat.
Just like urban life inculcates sophistication, Sage Vyas's narration of Mahabharat is very apt and to the point.
Just like physical vitality of youth enhances beauty of young woman.
Just like Vasant Rutu, or spring, is a season of renewal and transformation in nature. It's a time when the earth awakens from winter and is filled with the sights and sounds of new life.
Just like not merely lumps of pure gold but ornaments made from it enhance the beauty,
Similarly it is Sage Vyas's powerful and illuminating narration of Mahabharat that elevated it as book of life in the history of mankind.
The Puranas humbled themselves becoming the documented consequences of epic Mahabharat to get the universal acclaimation.
The epilogue to the epic Mahabharat famously quotes, 'Whatever is here, may be found elsewhere; what is not, cannot be found anywhere else.'
Above all, Mahabharat, in its most elegant and attractive manner, illustrates the deeper meanings of life, and inspires one to follow the path of virtue for attaining God-realization. The awe-inspiring beauty of life and the significance of its subtle nuances are nowhere more vividly presented than in Mahabharat.
The Sage Vaishampayana narrated Mahabharat to King Janamejaya at the snake sacrifice."
