MB05-Bhishma – the man the terrible!





In the previous episode we were discussing the strange behavior of Bhishma. On one hand he was all for the Pandavas. But at the same time, he was hell bent on vanquishing them by siding with their opponent. Why? 

Let us dig a bit into Bhishma’s past.

MB04-Seeking enemy’s permission before killing him!





Have you ever heard of anyone seeking the permission of the enemy before killing him? That sounds ridiculous and insane. But Yudhishthira did exactly that.

BookTalk: Audio version of 'Mantra to Enhance Your Mental Capabilities'


In today’s book talk I am going to discuss about the audio version of my book “A Mantra to enhance your mental capabilities”.

MB03-Humiliation is impossible to forget!





Many of us who have undergone humiliation know how difficult it is to forget and forgive. We may be very righteous, endowed with clarity, broad minded. But still, if we are humiliated, that too over and over again, we hardly forgive the person who has humiliated us. 

That is exactly what happened to Dhritarastra.

MB02-Vyasa – A dark boy born on an island!





Probably, there is no other author in the entire Indian history who is as revered, as versatile, as multifaceted, and as proficient as Vyasa who also happens to be the author of Mahabharata we are talking about. 

His actual name was Krishna Dvaipayana – literally meaning ‘a dark boy born on an island!’ What a strange name! 

Let me give a bit of his background.

MB01-Mahabharata: The biggest Epic ever known





Hi, I am happy to be back once again, after a short break. I hope that during my absence, you enjoyed listening to the Bhagavad Gita verses beautifully sung by Padmini Dinesh. If you have missed them for some reason, please go back to past episodes and do listen to them. I am sure you are going to like them and also have a new experience in Indian musical melody. She has done a great job. Thank you Padmini. 

Today, I am going to start another interesting series. My voice is almost fine now. But occasionally you may find some distortion. Please don’t mind.
