Episode #98 The End This is the last episode of my book Mahabharata Janani Janmabhoomi. Mahabharata is the history of kings and sages, essence of all sacred texts, beautiful in language, with subtle meanings and logic. It is a great storehouse of knowledge adorned with beautiful words and rhyme. With the evolution of the universe, evolved the inexhaustible seeds of all it's inhabitants, movable and immovable, earth, water, wind, years, seasons, all came into existence.  The epic covers a time period of about one thousand years, roughly 800CE to 400AD. It is the longest epic written till date. It is the handicraft of multiple authors. It traverses a time span of one thousand years and not a single day or year. In olden days, who spoke Sanskrit were called Aryas and who did not are Mlecchas. But today's context Aryas stands for ethnicity.  Mahabharata is classified into eighteen Parvas (section) each Parvas has many Adhyas (chapters). Each Adhyas has number of couplets or shlokas
