Махабхарата Обзор Эпоса Watch Mahabharata: Mahabharata - Indian epic compiled by Sage Vyasa, which tells about the affairs and fate of cousins (Kauravas and Pandavas) The lunar dynasty, with God Krishna playing a significant and decisive role in shaping events. The Bhagavad Gita and 1008 Vishnu names are in this great epic. Pious Hindus call it the 5th Veda. This great Epic affirms “that which is in him is nowhere to be found.“ I will mention just one point that will make you appreciate Mahabharata more. God was the consort of Maya (Illusion) and he had a son named Manas (Thinking). Manas had 2 wives: Pravritti and Nivritti --- Invasion and Freedom. Of course, Capture was his beloved wife, and she had one hundred children. Freedom was not so healthy — it was treated and forgotten, and she had five children. In Mahabharata, this is the symbolism of the Kauravas (one hundred sons) and the Pandavas (five sons). Although all the children lived in the same kingdom, ate the same food and learned from the same teacher, their characters were very different from each other; The Kauravas, the children of Capture, were greedy, cruel, self-centered, and hopeless; The Pandavas, the five brothers, each represented the highest dignity, so that they symbolized Truth, Righteousness, Peace, Love and the principle of Non-Violence (truth, justice, peace, love and non-harm). Since they were pure and born of Freedom, the Lord became their guide. In fact, the Lord will become the Guide of everyone whoever establishes Him as his Saaratha (the Charioteer). He will not consider this position low. He - Sanaatana Saarathi (the Eternal Charioteer) becomes the Charioteer of all. He is God for all who seek the Master, support. Spiritually the Master is in all, and Krishna is the personification of the universal soul. ~ Sathya Sai Speaks Volume 04 (1964) —- C 1 The Gita is one text in which you can get a complete picture of the nature and features of the Avatars. He acts as a friend, companion, charioteer, teacher, guide and guardian of his adherents. The Mahabharata war is not a chapter in ancient history; it takes place in every human breast between the forces of good and evil. One who recognizes the value established by God, Yogesvara Krsna, as the Charioteer, will undoubtedly triumph; the forces of evil cannot stop him; they will give in and fall. Accept Him as your Master; devote all actions to Him; dedicate your words and deeds and thoughts to Him like flowers in His Feet; He assures - “I will set you free” (’Mokshayishyaami’); He reassures, --- “you will no longer grieve” (’Maasuchaah’). ~ Sathya Sai Speaks Volume 05 (1965) —- C 36 God is the closest, dearest, most beloved, most impatient companion, companion and relative for man. This is fully demonstrated by Krishna in the Mahabharata and Bhagavad. ~ SathyaSaiSpeaksVolume 12 (1971-1972) —- C 36 Follow the path established in Ramayana, Mahabharata and Bhagavat. Continue to move along this path, despite stops and obstacles, despite the approval or disapproval of family and friends, praise or condemnation from society. What is praise or condemnation? Words, sound waves, arriving at all ends of the air; waves that strike your ear. Allow them to strike only in the outer ear. Do not pay attention to them. ~ Sathya Sai Speaks Volume 04 (1964) —- C 30 God appeared before Bhisma after the Mahabharata war, because Bhisma prayed to see Him before his eyes when he left this world. ~ Sathya Sai Speaks Volume 04 (1964) —- C 51 Bhagavata and Mahabharata are full of lessons for cultivating bhakti --- Love for God and the essence of God himself. The Pandava brothers and their spouse are the embodiment of this. When Queen Draupadi was offended and publicly disgraced by the brothers in the Royal Hall, she did not call on her spouses, the mighty heroes of many battles, armed with sky bows and maces; she called on Krishna because she knew that He was her closest relative, shield and sword. ~ Sathya Sai Speaks Volume 12 (1971-1972) —- C 36 A person named Rama must be the inspirer of that Name, manifest in himself the qualities that led Rama to immortality, which reached his Name. If a person bears the name Dharmaputra (the son of Justice), this is only a shameful burden if he does not justify it, being just as fair as the Dharmaputra Mahabharata. Or at least, trying to be the best, manifesting dharma (dignity) in your life. ~ Sathya Sai Speaks Volume 12 (1971-1972) —- C 9 Ramayana and Mahabharata - reservoirs of knowledge for seekers of peace. They are filled with examples and prescriptions that are inspirational and timely. Learning them - you can achieve purity of heart. The pure heart directed towards God is truly Heaven, Vaikuntha or Kailash. ~ Sathya Sai Speaks Volume 10 (1970) —- C 17
