"Dharma-rectification, benefit, love, and liberation are here, somewhere else, nothing here, nothing else."
The Mahabharata is one of the two most famous Sanskrit epics in ancient India, which contains not only long heroic epics, but also a large number of legends and stories as interludes, as well as religious philosophies and canonical works. The Mahabharata is about five million words long, and was the longest epic in the world before The Discovery of King Gesar.
Set against the backdrop of the era of strife among the Indian nations, the epic depicts the struggles of the two descendants of the Borodoi tribe for the right to inherit the throne, culminating in a great war. This epic has long been created and developed in the form of oral transmission, which is a special way for the ancient Indians to gather and preserve the national ideological and cultural heritage. The idea of the "collective unconscious" contained in the book is called the "soul of India" by Indian scholars.
In 2013, Mahabharata was adapted into a TV series, performed by many well-known actors, with a total of 267 episodes. The script is loyal to the original, although it has been ridiculed by many netizens as "fifty cent special effects", but it still captured a large number of fans, and the Douban score is as high as 8.9.
(Of course, in addition to the script, the actor's super high appearance is also a powder absorber)
Epics record not only stories, but also history, culture, and human nature. Whether it is a book or a TV series, it can take us to experience the rise and fall of this ancient nation.
