Vyasa Mahabharatam
Editor · Literature
Price: Rs. 199. The Eternal Epic, Retold... The sunrise-no matter how often we witness its splendor-always draws us back to it. Its beauty is timeless, its presence essential. The Mahabharata is much the same, blending unparalleled beauty with profound necessity. The name Bharata itself signifies brightness, symbolizing the illumination of life's wisdom. This is why countless poets and writers have revisited and retold the Mahabharata for thousands of years, ensuring its echoes resonate even today. The Mahabharata is not merely the story of a war between estranged cousins. It is a universal narrative of human conflict and the timeless triumph of dharma over adharma. That is why we revere and revisit this epic war, which unfolded thousands of years ago, with such deep devotion. To live a life without delving into its depths is to leave the human journey incomplete. Author Gummannagari Venumadhava Sharma, born into a family of scholars, has been a prolific writer for over 25 years. He co-edited Sahiti Sudha, a distinguished compilation of Telugu literary essays, and currently serves as the headmaster of a government high school. Co-author Jonnalagadda Lakshmi Narasimha Rao, fondly known as J.L., is a versatile writer proficient in both English and Telugu. With over two decades of experience at Indian Express and Andhra Prabha, as well as 25 years at Vijeta Competitions, he is also an accomplished translator. Through this collaboration, we aim to present the Mahabharata-the eternal Veda of Life-in clear, concise prose. We hope our effort succeeds in bringing its essence to life once more.
