Real talk, I've been really not feeling great lately. I clicked on the first episode on a whim, thinking, "okay, I'm gonna watch this, then go to bed." Nope. Here I am, just... Absolutely engrossed in this. You guys are absolutely wonderful. It's given me something to look forward to, and I thank you for that.
Actually the real Mahabharata is worlds biggest poem,this will be movie on it which will be in 4 part around 2025 or 2026 and will be most blockbuster of all time
This has been a really interesting story so far and I can tell it's good because there are moments where I'm emotionally involved, like that poor hunter who cut off his thumb because the sage asked him to. That kind of human emotion, of choosing the happiness of family over the happiness of others is really thoughtful and while I personally find the action reprehensible, I also understand it was a completely different time. Thanks for posting this
it is through indic prism, it is a story, most westeners try to visualise it through abrahamic conservative lens, and most imp also try to patronise things, keep your mind free of any notions and hear it
Unfortunately, these believes are still dwelling in the cultures, especially in the present political environment. All the bad part is living while the good part has been overpowered. Period.
Dronacharya inspite of all his positive qualities is a actually a representative of the corruption in education system. He sold his gift of knowledge by flouting the commonly held traditions of the time, he denied education to deserving Karna because he only wanted to teach royal children, he killed off competition for his favorite student Arjun by asking for the thumb of Eklavya who could have gone on to become a great archer then he used his favorite student Arjun to extract revenge on a friend turned foe, Dhrupad. All of this he did to give his son Ashwatthama an unfair leg up in life. In the end at the battle of Kurukshetra, or the war of righteousness, he paid for his sins with his life with a lie told by a student whom he trusted a lot, told about a son for whom he did all this.
Karana's story is something everyone gets wrong. Suth Putra means son of a Kshatriya father and a bhramin mother (resource manu smriti) His father was no ways poor, he was the charioteer of Bheeshma himself. Drona dint refuse to teach him right away there is a long story behind why Drona stops teaching karna.
In the original Mahabharata, Drona's behaviour towards Eklavya was because he was an ally of the Magadhas who were the rivals of Hastinapur. It was purely political.
@@vatsalsrivastav5175 he belonged to the Nishada tribe, just like Guha in the Ramayana. They were mostly forest dwellers and hunters but highly organised. In the Mahabharata, their allegiance was mostly to the Magadha kingdom. Drona was sure that being a Nishada, Eklavya would join them to fight for the Magadhas
Eklavya still had one hand remaining. Arjun is also called Savvyasachi because he can shoot arrows with both hands through equal profficiency. Eklavya didn't master archery after incident. I don't know if you know this that Eklavya kept challenging Krishna to fight him. Finally krishna fought him and killed him But there krishna also fought Arjuna when a gadhrva devotee of krishna spit paan on his palm. And narada muni suggested him to seek arjuna's protection when krishna became angry due to spit paan. He asked arjun's protection. Arjun gave him. Later when they flund out about each otjer they became sad but had tl fight to keep their word. And they fought bit ultimately Brahma had to intervene in between to stop both because no one was winning. So think If we cut arjun's thumb like eklavya, he still has same proficiency woth other hand. So cool. And krishna wasn't able to defeat him . Now eklavya was defeated by krishna. According to my intellect, Arjun is better Archer.
@@hh-zm9gr arjun was indra's son and i think eklavya didn't have any knowledge of devshastra as he learnt it all by himself ... Talking about only Archery skills not those powers that arjun got by indra and drona's divine weapons teachings.

It's been 3 years and 88Kviews since this video and no1 pointed out that in 27th minute, kunti n paandavs crossed the river n slept and bheem walked miles to fetch water for them.
pride, jealousy, desire, anger, hate, love all these not controlled results in pain sorrows and failure. Control the mind to control life. Easy said. In reality we are slaves to them. One who ends this slavery within oneself. Wins life.
@@IndrajaSalunkhe here in this video he said dog was not harm but actually dog was hurt such a way the arrows are injected from up and down of mouth. Which is not ethically correct . it indicates that knowledge was reached and it is in wrong hands which not good to society. So acharurya taken it back. (Laden is a highly talented civil engineer but he used his knowledge to distraction. Like now a days fools are knowledge .so called educated fools which not even electing their own readers . )
This is all fascinating, but keeping up with the names and storyline can be difficult, there are so many characters and events. Nevertheless, im just rewatching trying my best, this should really be one huge movie.
33:39 karn could easily hit the fish's eye but he wasnt given a chance to do so... Karn wasnt the bad guy but he had seemed to be so because of many reasons.. karn was there in the swayamwar with duryodhan( duryodhan wanted to marry draupadi) but he was humiliated by saying that he was a charioteer's son. Really karn suffered a very harsh life
Wrong, everything written here is wrong. In Panchal swayamvar the warriors were given five arrows to aim at the fish's eye. Karna was able to lift the bow, but unable to shoot four times. When he was going to shoot for the fifth time, Draupadi stopped him from taking part in the competition....yeah.... called him suta putra.... taking part instead of the groom is not acceptable in that swayamwar. That's how the whole swayamvar happened. And how Arjuna won that competition? He did his famous trick, taking all five arrows at once and targeted the aim and won the competition fairly, something no participant in that place were able to do. So don't manipulate the story just for the sake of your favourite character. People just love to make him a pitiful character, right?
Sorry but I'll have to disagree withyou.... It isnot ekalavya but Padmabati, the wife of Santunu's greed of throne that set the Mahabharata.... Once again proved women is the cause (in a joking way...no offence)
The thing about mahabharat is, you have to watch it more times to follow the individual characters till the end,when there will be more than 50 notable characters to follow their talents,boons, curses and how they grow up to understand the outcome at the end. And finally relate it to yourself
Eklavya sure but karna he plotted to burn pandavas with their mother in lac palace. I consider it cruel. He also couldn't string bow at draupadi swavamvar and after arjun won the svayamwar, karna instigated every king that how could this low caste and inferior brahamana take draupadi away. He along with others then attacked arjun and bheem. (Other pandavas had left). And arjuna defeated karna. Karna became surprized amd told that only shiva can defeat him and that no ordinary brahamana can. He asked who arjun is and attacked once again. Arjuna again defeated him. Karna also was the one who ordered duashasana to disrobe draupadi. I know, through serials everyone thinka duryodhan said it. But in actual mahabharat(Bori or KMG), clearly mentioned that karna ordered her disrobing. On 13th day, karna and his brother along with duryodhan his son dusshasana with his son, kritavarma kripa and ashwatthama all attacked abhimanyu and abhimamyu smashed all of them single handedly. He killed karna's brother(but in fair manner) and duryodhan son. Karna fled bit he came back and cut abhimanyu's bowstring from back. All 7 maharathi took this moment to attack on poor abhimanyu. They smashed his ratha took away his weapons amd mocked at him. After reading all this in real mahabharata, I can't take karna hero tragic unsung warrior of mahabharata bullshit shown by serials seriously. Because i have read original mahabharat(atleast closest to oroginal there exists in the world right now). Also, Eklavya kept challenging Krishna to fight him constantly. So finally krishna krishna fought him and killed him but before that granted him a boon.
@@hh-zm9gr u talk as if Arjuna is clean. Arjuna is th most privileged character in Mahabharata..got help anytime he needed as gurus,as power, as position, mother,father,wife. Duryodhana was rightful heir of Hastinapur.. or karna..
@@ajaym963 No karna was part of it. I have read it in both bori and kmg mahabharat. Read the JATUGRIHADAHA parva 29th chapter. Duryodhan became jealous of bhima's strength arjun's skill and went to karna and shakuni and then plotted this.
14:15 O come on guys Mahabharat show’s us how complexity of situation can lead to havoc, Dronaachaarya had taken pledge to teach only king’s sons and make them great that’s why he had taken such brutal step, which was wrong for sure. Just like what happened with Bhishm, pandavs, etc.
And spoiler is Lord Krishna appears at 35th min.. 😂.. my personal favorite being Angh Raj Karn... so much suffering yet virtuous enuf to present his unbreakable body shield to Lord Krishna in the war.. All Hail Angh Raj Karn.. the Destiny's child who was on the wrong side 😥😢

Fact: krishna always disliked Karna. When draupadi was disrobed, it was he who called karna the "trunk of evilness" and it was he only who provoked Arjuna to kill him after he decided not to kill him because he was unarmed. And it was he only who justified his killing again and again..
Thanks @epified & team, for such wonderful narration of our History in such a wonderful manner, we urges your team to make more such vedios about our historical epics, Our pious land, Our अखंड भारत, Our believes. Thank you a lot to @epified & team, 🤗
what a beautify .. Hinduism is so honest, it is not a religion .. it is clarification on your choices and your life.. it will try to improve your living.. but it wont force it.. its is all about the choices and no one is wrong... just be ready to face the karma
The whole concept of mahabharat is not wether its a fair play or not but its all about what kind of different characters and behqviour will lead to what kind of results. It has all kinds of characters like good,bad, evil, cunning, loose talks etc. On the whole what we learn from whome is what it matters. What mahabharat has contributed to human race for a better life style is important
Sorry but 12:39 Eklavya was the son of the Commander of some Kingdom. He wasn't comman by birth. Please note it. The thing about Mahabharat is that even the smallest detail matters!
Hi Team, So impressive the animation, music and explanation. I and we all are eagerly waiting for the next volume. Please advise when will that be live. Many thanks! :)
@@juanaguirre3702 when drona and dhrupad grew up together in school they became close friends. Dhurpad came from a royal rich family and said to drona that after school finished when he became king he will share the wealth with him and help him out. But when he became king it went to his head. the power got hold of him. Drona was poor and suffering and people made fun of his son as he didnt have milk. Drona remember his friend and went to ask him for help. Dhrupad the king said how can there be friendship between a royal rich king and a peasant like drona. The power had gotten to his head and forgot the friendship. Drona embarrassed by this, swore a vow to revenge.
Then he would have never born. Pandu's children would always be five Pandavas. Karna was born in that very moment when his mother was unmarried teenager who was unable to accept him....that were his birth circumstances.
20:44 casteist slurs can be ignored as they are not in the Veda Vyasas version of Mahabharat. For egs Karna was asked his Parents name and kingdom, not caste as told here
a teacher shouldnt discriminate. however, eklavya did steal knowledge without the teacher knowing. Eklavya got punished for his crime but he did gain a lot. Drona also gets punished later for being unfair. Mahabharat is all about life lessons and understanding duties and peoples hopelessness.
Karna, eklavya etc so many more unsung heroes in the Mahabharata ❤️ oof what an epic epic😂 also can someone confirm that reciting Mahabharata in house causes a fight? Just got to know about it today
Draupadi’s sayambhar story was not told in an exact way. The major reason of Draupadi’s insulting to Karna was as Krishna told her that Karna gonna hit the fish eye and she must not accept anyone apart from Arjun as she was destined to that. I found Krishna’s role in Mahabharat as none less than a astute politician and the only reason Pandavas won Kurukkhetra war was just for the Krishna.
Well done! i read the comments and it looks like i am the only one who noticed that is missing the part of the gurudakshina asked by drona...i think is a main part...when Draupada got captured and lost half of his kingdom...etc..etc...anyway i like this videos!
Pandavas who are said 'heroes' of Mahabharata were neither heroes nor stronger than Duryodhana, Karna, Bhishma and Drona. They were the reason for the sad lives of Eklavya, Karna, Asvatthama, etc.
I wanted Draupadi’s elaborate story. It was her father who cursed her with a life of misery before he found about how amazing his daughter was. Ultimately her father was the entire cause of her plight and since the father knew this, he would always suffer from pain.
Bruh! Go read real Mahabharat instead of watching serials. Draupadi was very much loved by his father and he never ever cursed her..He was the only one who wanted to fight Kauravas because of what they did to draupadi.. star plus and Sony is not our history BORI CE Mahabharat is... It's shame people right illogical comment about one of the most important texts of India without even reading it
Bheem doesn't mean that he had fatty stomach and its Indian story not any other European countries ,people wore early Roman dress in this which is lunatic,but narration is excellent and beautiful made interesting 😍
@Danny B By cruelty, I'm talking about the way he killed people. Dashing Hidimb to the ground Folding Bakasura in the middle Breaking Jarasandha's spinal cord Tearing open Dusshasana's chest and drinking his blood. Smashing Duryodhana's thigh and stepping on his wounded thigh. If this is not cruelty, what is? But his cruelty was towards evil and hence I called it, in a good way
Eklavya was a son of Senapati of Jarasandh.. Famous it is that there was a rivalry in Hastinapur & Magadh (Jarasandh was Ruler of Magadh if I m not wrong). So, enemy's son could not be left just like that, hence Drona asked for his thumb. A scene is well explained in Original tezxt of Mahabharat.. (GeetaPress version also has it) one can read tan these stories of injustice n all.
It is good explanation except for the part that Eklavya was rejected by dronacharya. It was karna whom dronacharya rejected as the gurukul was given by kings hence only king's children could learn archery there. Eklavya had stolen the archery skill and thus was punished. People can say that this was an act of biases and nepotism, however, little they understand that those were the time where there was not intellectual property acts and copyright laws. The archery was a very skillful talent which had many secrets to it. The dhanurveda describes few of them in details which includes the very specific details of forming bow such as type of wood used how to polish the wood, ways of testing the wood, number of knots, the angle of at which bows must be fired, the types of head of bows and their different use and thousands more secrets. Eklavya was son of Hiranya Dhanu; who was a head of a battalion of Jarasandh army who had always been an enemy to Hastinapur. So, eklavya a potential enemy of hastinapur stole the skill of archery from hastinapur hired acharya which he might use against hastinapur one day. He had to be punished and so he was. I don't think Dronacharya did anything wrong there. He simply preserved his archery knowledge and punished a person who tried to steal it.

@@matchsticklepo oh please, he was insulted way more badly many times by many warriors, why did he only took revenge on a harmless woman? Only scoundrels would do such lowly thing, not a kshtriya. He would have become the best man in Mahabharata if he tried to stop that vastraharan....wise men let go of their grudges and become a big hearted person.... no other revenge is bigger than killing your enemy with kindness. but no, why would he do that? he was the one who suggested that evil act of disrobing Draupadi!! It made him even more pathetic than any other character in Mahabharata. People who justify him in this disgusting act should question their own moral standards.
Epified channel is making a good job by making such videos of Mahabharata. Please extend the length of this videos. The videos you make is running fast and is covering only three to four minutes. If you do like this videos you can miss many important parts of the Mahabharata story. One mistake is that Karna did not know about his birth until Krishna said him about his birth secret. You are showing the story very fast. You did not show the story of Arjun defeating Drupada, the birth of Amba as Shikandhi in the kingdom of Drupada, etc. Please continue the series of Mahabharata because you had stopped at story at 54 or 55 videos. Please continue the story upto the Kurukshetra battle.

The world is very unfair for those with humble backgrounds. Proved by Drona’s behavior.
In the original Mahabharata, Drona's behaviour towards Eklavya was because he was an ally of the Magadhas who were the rivals of Hastinapur. It was purely political.

@@prakwandutta2861 Not directly. The Yadavas were rivals mainly of Magadhas and therefore, the Nishadas.
Drona had to do what he did.
But deep inside him, he'll always know who is the greatest Archer in this world.

@@nsatish8910 so Arjun was jealous that someone did it better. 😝 Thats all.
@@IndrajaSalunkhe here in this video he said dog was not harm but actually dog was hurt such a way the arrows are injected from up and down of mouth.
Which is not ethically correct . it indicates that knowledge was reached and it is in wrong hands which not good to society. So acharurya taken it back.
(Laden is a highly talented civil engineer but he used his knowledge to distraction. Like now a days fools are knowledge .so called educated fools which not even electing their own readers . )
This is all fascinating, but keeping up with the names and storyline can be difficult, there are so many characters and events. Nevertheless, im just rewatching trying my best, this should really be one huge movie.
You should use a Mahabharata family chart , available on utube
at last i understood mahabharth to some extent. great job team epified, what about the remaining episodes,/ volume III?
please do make episodes of ramayana also
33:39 karn could easily hit the fish's eye but he wasnt given a chance to do so... Karn wasnt the bad guy but he had seemed to be so because of many reasons.. karn was there in the swayamwar with duryodhan( duryodhan wanted to marry draupadi) but he was humiliated by saying that he was a charioteer's son. Really karn suffered a very harsh life
Wrong, everything written here is wrong. In Panchal swayamvar the warriors were given five arrows to aim at the fish's eye. Karna was able to lift the bow, but unable to shoot four times. When he was going to shoot for the fifth time, Draupadi stopped him from taking part in the competition....yeah.... called him suta putra.... taking part instead of the groom is not acceptable in that swayamwar. That's how the whole swayamvar happened. And how Arjuna won that competition? He did his famous trick, taking all five arrows at once and targeted the aim and won the competition fairly, something no participant in that place were able to do. So don't manipulate the story just for the sake of your favourite character. People just love to make him a pitiful character, right?
Who lived in Forests? Who lived in Rich palaces?
@@amyra8159 You should check your crazy made up story before you scream stupidly "Wrong Wrong" targeting the truth.. Idiot!!
Omg amazing drawing wonderful stories 👍🏻
Today we call it test tube baby.... (1.58)
Or more than that a very modern artificial incubation cryos for dna copying
Eklavya is the reason arjuna had to experience mahabharata what a student he was I remember crying when I first heard his story
Sorry but I'll have to disagree withyou....
It isnot ekalavya but Padmabati, the wife of Santunu's greed of throne that set the Mahabharata....
Once again proved women is the cause (in a joking way...no offence)
The thing about mahabharat is, you have to watch it more times to follow the individual characters till the end,when there will be more than 50 notable characters to follow their talents,boons, curses and how they grow up to understand the outcome at the end. And finally relate it to yourself
Karn and eklavya are the most skillful
Eklavya sure but karna he plotted to burn pandavas with their mother in lac palace. I consider it cruel. He also couldn't string bow at draupadi swavamvar and after arjun won the svayamwar, karna instigated every king that how could this low caste and inferior brahamana take draupadi away.
He along with others then attacked arjun and bheem. (Other pandavas had left). And arjuna defeated karna. Karna became surprized amd told that only shiva can defeat him and that no ordinary brahamana can. He asked who arjun is and attacked once again. Arjuna again defeated him.
Karna also was the one who ordered duashasana to disrobe draupadi. I know, through serials everyone thinka duryodhan said it. But in actual mahabharat(Bori or KMG), clearly mentioned that karna ordered her disrobing.
On 13th day, karna and his brother along with duryodhan his son dusshasana with his son, kritavarma kripa and ashwatthama all attacked abhimanyu and abhimamyu smashed all of them single handedly. He killed karna's brother(but in fair manner) and duryodhan son. Karna fled bit he came back and cut abhimanyu's bowstring from back. All 7 maharathi took this moment to attack on poor abhimanyu. They smashed his ratha took away his weapons amd mocked at him.
After reading all this in real mahabharata, I can't take karna hero tragic unsung warrior of mahabharata bullshit shown by serials seriously. Because i have read original mahabharat(atleast closest to oroginal there exists in the world right now).
Also, Eklavya kept challenging Krishna to fight him constantly. So finally krishna krishna fought him and killed him but before that granted him a boon.

Guys you are great !!!....wonderful and awesome videos ......When does the next season start ???
Fantastic information regarding Mahabharata historical facts.

incredible job epified ! MUCH respect
great work! credits to Epified for putting such a precise video with beautiful narration.. cant wait to watch the subsequent episodes.. :-)
This channel described Mahabharata the best ❤️
I love the second voice artist. Her voice is pure asmr. Would love to hear stories and more of her work.
14:15 O come on guys Mahabharat show’s us how complexity of situation can lead to havoc, Dronaachaarya had taken pledge to teach only king’s sons and make them great that’s why he had taken such brutal step, which was wrong for sure. Just like what happened with Bhishm, pandavs, etc.
2:00 genetic engineering ! It can be possible , if the clumps contain the stem cell . Though it will require a proper culture medium , not simple oil.
yes! it can also be alluded to In Vitro Fertilisation or IVF that we see today as well
Many of birth shown in Mahabharat, Ramayan and other holy stories of India is similar to what we see today as surrogacy and IVF(Test Tube Babies).
@@Ambika5364 LOL.
I was in tears when he narrated the part of eklavya
just epic, much better than many movies or series
eagerly waiting for volume 3
keep up this amazing work
And spoiler is Lord Krishna appears at 35th min.. 😂.. my personal favorite being Angh Raj Karn... so much suffering yet virtuous enuf to present his unbreakable body shield to Lord Krishna in the war.. All Hail Angh Raj Karn.. the Destiny's child who was on the wrong side 😥😢

@@hh-zm9gr bro why are you telling these people, thay have clearly learnt history from serials like suryaputra karn serials..
Fact: krishna always disliked Karna. When draupadi was disrobed, it was he who called karna the "trunk of evilness" and it was he only who provoked Arjuna to kill him after he decided not to kill him because he was unarmed. And it was he only who justified his killing again and again..
The lady describing krishna at the swaYamvar in this story is brilliant in her words. To me she is the draupadi in storytelling
Thanks @epified & team, for such wonderful narration of our History in such a wonderful manner, we urges your team to make more such vedios about our historical epics, Our pious land, Our अखंड भारत, Our believes.
Thank you a lot to @epified & team, 🤗
what a beautify .. Hinduism is so honest, it is not a religion .. it is clarification on your choices and your life.. it will try to improve your living.. but it wont force it.. its is all about the choices and no one is wrong... just be ready to face the karma
finally...waiting for this collective volume for long....
Thanks
Your effort is amazing. Thanks for this video.
Xllent work guys!So brief and yet so much detail.
You explained everything very well👏👏👏🤗🤗

wasn't kalyug started after shree krishna's death, correct me if I am wrong

This is nice.
I can't wait for the rest ....
The whole concept of mahabharat is not wether its a fair play or not but its all about what kind of different characters and behqviour will lead to what kind of results.
It has all kinds of characters like good,bad, evil, cunning, loose talks etc.
On the whole what we learn from whome is what it matters. What mahabharat has contributed to human race for a better life style is important
Painting....makes story more realistic......
Congratts....entire time👍👍👍🎉
No one can draw like you i thought it would be colourful drawings but among that everything is 👍
This is great work.
Sorry but 12:39 Eklavya was the son of the Commander of some Kingdom. He wasn't comman by birth. Please note it. The thing about Mahabharat is that even the smallest detail matters!
He is librandu reading mahabharata what do u expect.
Hi Team, So impressive the animation, music and explanation. I and we all are eagerly waiting for the next volume. Please advise when will that be live. Many thanks! :)
You should continue like this.... A brilliant explanation and video.. Thanks a lot❤❤❤❤❤
Eklavya the real hero
very good presentation of the Mahabharata....concise and to the point...well done u guys
Karna is my favorite character in the entire Mahabharata that dude is SO cool! Also #justiceforeklavya
Drona was partial towards his students .....😮
Yes very very partial
That's how system works even now
Ekalavya is a Royal Kid too not tribal. Ekalavya is adharmic, would u ley Hitler learn how create military missiles?
@lzydwg but guru dharam asks you to not be partial. As a teacher, the only thing you should be loyal to is guru dharam
NOO ..its an overview story
Bheem,Eklavya damn they were the real thing!
fantastic
please upload 54 and above episodes
Ekalavya was the son of a King. He was a Nishad by Birth but Kshatriya by Karma
You guys did an amazing job....words can't describe it
Dronacharya didn't asked the drupad for half of his kingdom he actually asked for a cow so that he could feed his son some milk.
Mohit Chaturvedi so the dude promised half his kingdom to his friend and when that friend just asked for a cow he refused?
Yes
@@juanaguirre3702 when drona and dhrupad grew up together in school they became close friends. Dhurpad came from a royal rich family and said to drona that after school finished when he became king he will share the wealth with him and help him out. But when he became king it went to his head. the power got hold of him. Drona was poor and suffering and people made fun of his son as he didnt have milk. Drona remember his friend and went to ask him for help. Dhrupad the king said how can there be friendship between a royal rich king and a peasant like drona. The power had gotten to his head and forgot the friendship. Drona embarrassed by this, swore a vow to revenge.
@@juanaguirre3702 possible, cause whhen he promised the half kingdom they were just kids, and people change when the grow up
Terrific drawings
Karna deserved so much more in life, he legit could have been a Pandava if he was born while his mother was married to the king.
Then he would have never born. Pandu's children would always be five Pandavas.
Karna was born in that very moment when his mother was unmarried teenager who was unable to accept him....that were his birth circumstances.
He chose the wrong side. Thats moral of story.
Shri Krishna protec
Shri Krishna attac
But most importantly
When arjun hits fish eye
He Clapp
😂😂
20:44 casteist slurs can be ignored as they are not in the Veda Vyasas version of Mahabharat. For egs Karna was asked his Parents name and kingdom, not caste as told here
Wow. Very nice visual, background and narration!!! Keep up the good work!!
Karan Never got chance to show his power
thanks for making the great war in this way for quick understanding for all ,,thanks again!.
Eklavya didn't deserve this from a teacher
A teacher never discriminates
a teacher shouldnt discriminate. however, eklavya did steal knowledge without the teacher knowing. Eklavya got punished for his crime but he did gain a lot. Drona also gets punished later for being unfair. Mahabharat is all about life lessons and understanding duties and peoples hopelessness.
No I don't find Eklavya cheating.
Karna, eklavya etc so many more unsung heroes in the Mahabharata ❤️ oof what an epic epic😂 also can someone confirm that reciting Mahabharata in house causes a fight? Just got to know about it today
Draupadi’s sayambhar story was not told in an exact way. The major reason of Draupadi’s insulting to Karna was as Krishna told her that Karna gonna hit the fish eye and she must not accept anyone apart from Arjun as she was destined to that. I found Krishna’s role in Mahabharat as none less than a astute politician and the only reason Pandavas won Kurukkhetra war was just for the Krishna.
background music is awesome!! how can i get that?
Well done! i read the comments and it looks like i am the only one who noticed that is missing the part of the gurudakshina asked by drona...i think is a main part...when Draupada got captured and lost half of his kingdom...etc..etc...anyway i like this videos!
Mahabharata was all about privilege
very good! but its annoying when the speaker keeps changing and we have to adjust to the new speakers voice
Very well done.
Pandavas who are said 'heroes' of Mahabharata were neither heroes nor stronger than Duryodhana, Karna, Bhishma and Drona. They were the reason for the sad lives of Eklavya, Karna, Asvatthama, etc.
lmao
A story beautifully told... please keep up the good work :)
I wanted Draupadi’s elaborate story. It was her father who cursed her with a life of misery before he found about how amazing his daughter was. Ultimately her father was the entire cause of her plight and since the father knew this, he would always suffer from pain.
Bruh! Go read real Mahabharat instead of watching serials. Draupadi was very much loved by his father and he never ever cursed her..He was the only one who wanted to fight Kauravas because of what they did to draupadi.. star plus and Sony is not our history BORI CE Mahabharat is... It's shame people right illogical comment about one of the most important texts of India without even reading it
@@Glamsss-ss is this video good to watch
This a wonderful presentation.

Bheem doesn't mean that he had fatty stomach and its Indian story not any other European countries ,people wore early Roman dress in this which is lunatic,but narration is excellent and beautiful made interesting 😍
@Danny B yeah I remember my last Janma. Ok I'll accept it,but Do YOU know the dress code for early Roman or Greek
@Danny B And who the hell told you that Bhima has cruelty and it is not mentioned in any Indian scriptures. Do you have any reference
Bhima means terrible.
@@shreeharidattag6919 he was cruel, in a good way.
@Danny B By cruelty, I'm talking about the way he killed people.
Dashing Hidimb to the ground
Folding Bakasura in the middle
Breaking Jarasandha's spinal cord
Tearing open Dusshasana's chest and drinking his blood.
Smashing Duryodhana's thigh and stepping on his wounded thigh.
If this is not cruelty, what is? But his cruelty was towards evil and hence I called it, in a good way
Is there next part of it?? I would really love its next part, because it was very detailed and easy to understand 💯✨
There’s a part three. I don’t know how many parts they made though. This as an audio book is 45 hours so I don’t know if they have the whole thing up
Eklavya was a son of Senapati of Jarasandh.. Famous it is that there was a rivalry in Hastinapur & Magadh (Jarasandh was Ruler of Magadh if I m not wrong). So, enemy's son could not be left just like that, hence Drona asked for his thumb. A scene is well explained in Original tezxt of Mahabharat.. (GeetaPress version also has it) one can read tan these stories of injustice n all.
Arjun was always right.
Why?
Bcz he was on the side of Dharma.
While Karna was on the side of Adharma.
Seems that the story of Karna and Arjuna is one of the more famous stories from the Mahabrata.
It is good explanation except for the part that Eklavya was rejected by dronacharya. It was karna whom dronacharya rejected as the gurukul was given by kings hence only king's children could learn archery there. Eklavya had stolen the archery skill and thus was punished.
People can say that this was an act of biases and nepotism, however, little they understand that those were the time where there was not intellectual property acts and copyright laws. The archery was a very skillful talent which had many secrets to it. The dhanurveda describes few of them in details which includes the very specific details of forming bow such as type of wood used how to polish the wood, ways of testing the wood, number of knots, the angle of at which bows must be fired, the types of head of bows and their different use and thousands more secrets.
Eklavya was son of Hiranya Dhanu; who was a head of a battalion of Jarasandh army who had always been an enemy to Hastinapur. So, eklavya a potential enemy of hastinapur stole the skill of archery from hastinapur hired acharya which he might use against hastinapur one day. He had to be punished and so he was. I don't think Dronacharya did anything wrong there. He simply preserved his archery knowledge and punished a person who tried to steal it.
eklavya the unluckiest
No Karna is the unluckiest

He would have become the best man in Mahabharata if he tried to stop that vastraharan....wise men let go of their grudges and become a big hearted person.... no other revenge is bigger than killing your enemy with kindness.
but no, why would he do that? he was the one who suggested that evil act of disrobing Draupadi!!
It made him even more pathetic than any other character in Mahabharata. People who justify him in this disgusting act should question their own moral standards.
Epified channel is making a good job by making such videos of Mahabharata. Please extend the length of this videos. The videos you make is running fast and is covering only three to four minutes. If you do like this videos you can miss many important parts of the Mahabharata story. One mistake is that Karna did not know about his birth until Krishna said him about his birth secret. You are showing the story very fast. You did not show the story of Arjun defeating Drupada, the birth of Amba as Shikandhi in the kingdom of Drupada, etc. Please continue the series of Mahabharata because you had stopped at story at 54 or 55 videos. Please continue the story upto the Kurukshetra battle.
