Explanation:
The Mahabharata (compiled between 300 BC and 300 AD) has the honor of being the longest epic in world literature. It consists of 100,000 2-line stanzas (although the most recent critical edition edits this down to about 88,000). This makes it eight times as long as Homer’s Iliad and Odyssey together, and over three times as long as the Bible (Chaitanya vii). According to the Narasimhan version, only about 4000 lines relate to the main story; the rest contain additional myths and teachings. In other words, the Mahabharata resembles a long journey with many side roads and detours. It is said that “Whatever is here is found elsewhere. But whatever is not here is nowhere else.”
The name Mahabharata means “great [story of the] Bharatas.” Bharata was an early ancestor of both the Pandavas and Kauravas who fight each other in a great war, but the word is also used generically for the Indian race, so the Mahabharata sometimes is referred to as “the great story of India.”
The epic is divided into 18 books, concerning an 18-day war among 18 armies. The main narrative concerning the war is contained in the first ten books.
