6.29-I can identify the important aesthetic(relates to art) and intellectual(relates to the ability to think) achievements of India.  Sanskrit literature, including the Bhagavad-Gita, Ramayana, and the Mahabharata Medicine Metallurgy Mathematics The Mahabharata andThe Ramayana

Important facts • The Indian epic the Mahabharata is made up of almost 100,000 couplets—about seven times the length of the Iliad and the Odysseycombined. • It is written by several different authors over 400 years. • A well known saying is the Ramayana teaches what to do in life and the Mahabharata teaches what must not be done in life. • It teaches important Indian values of dharma, patience and many others. • The Ramayana, describes the ideal Indian couple, Rama and Sita. • Rama's killing of Ravana is symbolic of destruction of our greed and indiscipline.

The Mahabharata and the Ramayana are Indian epics that were originally written in Sanskrit. The Bhagvad Gita is an important section of the Mahabharata. What is an epic? Can you think of any examples? What is Sanskrit? Like the Vedas this literature is important to the Hindu religion and they are extremely useful in teaching and understanding the beliefs of the people.

Characters The Mahabharata • The Pandavas-The Five sons of Pandu, these heroes were fathered by the gods and are assisted by the gods, sages, and Brahmins throughout the story(The good guys) • Yudhishthira-The oldest of the Pandavas who became ruler of the world • The Dhartarashtras-The 100 sons of King Dhartarashtras, who were referred to as demons in human bodies • Duryodhana-The oldest and leader of the Dhartarashtras

The Mahabharata The Dhartarashtra’s behaved viciously and brutally toward the Pandavas, from the time of their early childhood. They tricked the eldest Pandava, Yudhishthira,who had become the ruler of the world, in a game of dice. The Dhartarashtra drove the Pandava’s out of the kingdom for 24 years.

The Mahabharata They tricked the eldest Pandava, Yudhishthira,who had become the ruler of the world, in a game of dice.

The Pandavas fulfilled their part of that bargain by living out side the kingdom, but the evil leader of Dhartarashtra, Duryodhana, was unwilling to restore the Pandavas to their half of the kingdom when the thirteen years had expired. The result of this is called the Bhagvad Gita.

Bhagvad Gita The Bhagvad Gita-The 2 families called on their allies and fought an 18 day battle. The Pandavas won. Yudhishthiraalone was terribly troubled, to the end of the story, in spite of the fact that everyone else told him the war was right and good.

The Mahabharata In the years that follow the war Dhritarashtra and his queen Gandhari, and Kunti, the mother of the Pandavas, lived out their lives in a forest retreat. The mother died with yogic calm in a forest fire.

The Mahabharata When they learned of this, the Pandavas believed it time for them to leave this world too and they embarked upon the 'Great Journey,' which involved walking north toward the polar mountain, that is toward the heavenly worlds, until one's body dropped dead. One by one Draupadi and the younger Pandavas died along the way until Yudhishthira was left alone with a dog that had followed him all the way.

Yudhishthiramade it to the gate of heaven and there refused the order to drive the dog back, at which point the dog was revealed to be an incarnate form of the God Dharma, who was there to test Yudhishthira's virtue. Once in heaven Yudhishthira faced one final test of his virtue: He saw only the Dhartarashtra Clan in heaven, and he was told that his brothers were not allowed into heaven. He insisted on joining his brothers if that were the case! It was then revealed that they were really in heaven, that this illusion had been one final test for him.

Ramayana • Prince Rama was supposed to become the king, but he was sent into exile for 14 years. Prince Rama insists that his brother remain king because it is his job. • How does this support Hindu beliefs related to dharma?

Everyone must do their job or dharma.

Ramayana "Do I hear my husband rightly, are these words my Rama spake,
And her banished lord and husband will the wedded wife forsake? Lightly I dismiss the counsel which my lord hath lightly said
For it ill beseems a warrior and my husband's princely grade; For the faithful woman follows where her wedded lord may lead, In the banishment of Rama, Sita's exile is decreed,

Sita is kidnapped by the demon king Ravana, the ten-headed ruler of Lanka. What do you predict will happen in the story? "Brahman nor a righteous rishi," royal Ravan made reply,
"Leader of the wrathful Rakshas, Lanka's lord and king am I, He whose valour quells the wide-world, Gods above and men below,
He whose proud and peerless prowess Rakshas and Asuras know! But thy beauty's golden lustre, Sita, wins my royal heart,
Be a sharer of my empire, of my glory take a part,

Rama went to rescue her, aided by Lakshmana, his brother, and the mighty monkey-general Hanuman.

Mahabharata and Veda

Mahabharata and Veda

Mahabharata is to be considered as the soul of Indian civilization. The contents of the great epic reflect the nature of the human relation to the society. It is also observed that, the ideas of Mahabharata purify the dirt of the society by imposing its power against the evil. Once upon a time when Vedic knowledge was not so easy to understand by the common man, to fill the gap of that circumstances this epic played a vital role. To make Vedic knowledge so simple to the man, Mahabharata analyzes the significant role of individual by supplying the every needs of his life. As a result Mahabharata stands as the fifth Veda to satisfy the ultimate goal of human life i.e. Puru artha s Dharma, Artha, Kama and Mok a .It explained the value of human life in light of Veda. Here in this proposed research paper, an attempt has been made to highlight the few Vedic ideas which are reflected in Mahabharata in connection to the human life.

  • In power for 13 years. Duryodhan has been a benevolent king. Theres no guarantee that the Subjects really miss the Pandavas. Not only have they the wealth and power of Hastinapur, but also that of Indraprastha, the kingdom that the Pandvas had taken such labors to build and which had surpassed the Hastina of old in all degrees. Karna had gone on a nation-wide conquering on behalf of Duryodhana. They are the national sovereigns
  • Without war, will concede not a needle-prick of earth. - Duryodhna
  • Duryodhana was completely focused on the War.It was his moment of truth. He had usurped a kingdom, and he meant to keep it. He had resorted to any means, foul or fair to get the kingdom, which he believed to be rightfully his, and he was in no mood to give it up.
  • We fight over a Kingdom, as dogs over a piece of meat.-Yudhisthira

  • Turn your weakness into your Strength.

  • Make Powerful Allies.
  • Kauravas Centralized leadership. One Head of Army at a time, who has supreme authority of 11 akshouhini of army. Bhishma, Drona, Karna, Shalya and Ashwatthama.
  • Pandavas Distributed leadership. Seven commanders for the seven divisions.(1 man command 1 akshouhini each).
  • Virat (King of Matsya).
  • Drupad (King of Pancala).
  • Sahadeva(King of Magadha).
  • Dhrshtaketu (King of Chedi).
  • Satyaki (Only warrior from Dwarka).
  • Shikhandi (Prince of Pancala).
  • Dhrshtadymna Commander in Chief.
  • Arjuna Supreme Commander.
  • Krishna Arjunas charioteer and counselor.
  • Share your responsibilities.
  • Kauravas No team spirit. They all fought their individual wars.
  • Bhishma For his Vow to protect the throne Hastinapur.
  • Drona and Kripa They owed allegiance to the throne.
  • Shalya Simply cheated by Duryodhana to be there. Was originally a Pandava ally.
  • Karna To prove his mantle against Arjuna. Friendship for Duryodhana.
  • They didnt gel well with each other. Bhishma and Karna. Bhisma and Shakuni. Karna nd Shakuni. Karna and Shalya. Shalya and Bhishma. It was like a bees, hornets and mosquitoes put together in a jar.
  • Pandavas One team. One Goal. As men, they all had huge respect for Krishna and Yudhisthira. While as warriors they were in complete awe of Bhima and Arjuna. Most of them were close relatives cousins, brother-in-laws, father-in-laws. More than that they all were part of the decision-making process. It was their common war.
  • Teamwork succeeds where Individual effort fails.
  • Kauravas Except for Duryodhana nobody wanted the War. All the 4 main generals had strong ties with the Pandavas.
  • Bhishma(grandchildern) Wont kill the panadavas. Will kill a thousand soldiers each day.
  • Drona (students) Wont kill the Pandavas. Will capture them only.
  • Shalya (Nakula-Shadevas maternal uncle) Loved the Pandavas and covertly helped them by humiliating Karna
  • Karna (brother to the Pandavas) Promised not to kill any of the other Pandavas save Arjuna.
  • A Team of Traitors.
  • Pandavas Common goal. But the individuals had their individual targets. Their own agenda, which just became one with the teams agenda.
  • Dhratsadyumna Drona.
  • Shikhandi Bhisma.
  • Satayaki Bhurisravas.
  • Arjuna Karna.
  • Bhima Duryodhana and his brothers.
  • Sahadeva Shakuni and his sons.
  • Nakula Karnas sons.
  • The Right team is made by selecting the Right Individuals. Get the right man for the right job.
  • Kauravas Already said the Big 4 had big emotional attachment with the 5 Pandavas. Looking further on their commitment.
  • Bhisma himself gave away the secret of killing him to the Pandavas.He prolonged the War by killing only inconsequential soldiers. He did not fight a warrior like Shikhandi because of his personal bias.
  • Drona too indirectly gave away his secret, by saying he was invulnerable as long as he held a weapon. Moreover he abandoned weapons as soon as he knew his son had died.
  • Karna did not kill Yudhisthira and BHima when he got the chance. He gave away his Kavac and Kundala prior to his War. Karna fled innumerous times from the War when he was hurt. He didnt save Duhsasana when Bhima was killing him.
  • Shalya kept on insulting Karna while in Battle.
  • Abhimanyu , a 16 year old kid. Ventured beyond enemy lines alone. This was suicide mission but he still went in and took a great part of the army down with him. It took the combined effort of 7 Maharathis to take him down.
  • Ghatotkach even in death, took with him almost half the army.
  • Yudhisthira, he knew he couldnt face Karna in War, but still went in to set an example. Yudhitshira didn't hesitate to tell a lie or a twisted truth when faced with the decision of whether to stick to his personal integrity or welfare of the team.
  • Krishna took up arms twice and almost entered the War, inspite of his promise, only to be stopped by Arjuna.
  • The interests of the Individual should never exceed the Team interest.
  • The best man for a Job is not the one with the best capabilities but one with the greatest commitment.
  • Krishna The Greatest Crisis Manager the world has seen.
  • Yudhisthira Low-key strategist.
  • On the first day of the War, he played a Master game. Went over to the Enemy side to seek blessings from Elders. In reality he made a covert deal with them, wherein all of them agreed to help him and unfolded the secrets of defeating them.
  • While coming back, he took a calculated risk. He made an offer to all the assembled people to change sides if they wanted to. He knew well of the lack of cohesiveness among the Kauravas. Yuyutsu, son of Dhrtarashtra crossed over to the Pandavas. This exposed the weakness of the Kauravas for all to see.
  • Know your enemies weaknesses and exploit them.
  • Take Calculated risks.
  • Inspire, invigorate, counsel your own team in moments of need.
  • Kauravas Princes brought up in the comfort of the Royal Palace, matured on romanticized ideals of Power, Fame, Courage and Valor. No experience of ground reality.
  • Spent the greater part of their lives in Poverty. Childhood in the Himalayan foothills among Rishis. One year exile among the poor people of Kuru-Panchala. 12 years of Vanvas and 1 year of Agyatvas.
  • Experinced with the ground reality. Contact with people from various strata of the society. Sannyasis (celibate monks), Acharyas(Householders, teachers), poor Brahmanas, lower-class Potter.
  • Different races of people. Rakshasas, Gandharavas, Apsaras, Nagas. People from different regions Uttarkuru, Bengal etc.
  • A Sense of Sharing. A sense of Brotherhood.
  • Know ground realities.
  • Know different ideologies.
  • Kauravas Patriarchal structure. Bhishma, Drona, Kripa, Dhratarashtra, Vidur, Shakuni, Duryodhana, Karna, Duhsasana. No women in the decision making process.
  • Gandhari retreated to the Inner Chambers. Nobody listened to her.
  • Pandavas Matriarchal Structure.
  • Kunti was the authority supreme for the Pandavas.
  • Whatever my mother says is Dharma to me Yudhisthira.
  • Draupadi was a companion in whatever the Pandavas did. She had a big role in all the decision making. Without her the Pandavas would have most probably reclined to the forests.
  • Even the younger Pandavas Ghatotkach, Abhimnanyu and Iravan were brought up by their mothers. So the female influence was huge.
  • Women Better Half. Any team which doesn't have women is unbalanced, for the Masculine traits of Aggression and Dominance should be balanced by the Feminine traits of Harmony and Sustenance.
  • Turn your weaknesses into strengths.
  • Turn enemies into allies.
  • Teamwork scores over Individual Effort.
  • Right Team Right set of Individuals. The right man for the right job.
  • Commitment scores over Competence.
  • Team interests over Individual interests..
  • Know your enemy/challenges. Exploit its weaknesses. Take calculated risks.
  • The Right Managers To inspire, invigorate, counsel in crisis .
  • Know Ground realities. Accept different ideologies. Cooperate.
  • Empower Women. The Gender Balance is required for stability and administration.
