The Geography of the Mahabharata

- Mahabharata is often deemed the fifth Veda, which is equally venerable as the four Vedas. The critical edition calls it "an inexhaustible mine for investigating religion, mythology, philosophy, law, customs, political and social institutions of ancient India."
However, the geography described in the epic is a topic, which often searched for, but rarely discussed.
In this talk, Dr. Shreenand Bapat (Registrar and Curator at the Bhandarkar Oriental Research Institute) sheds light on this extremely fascinating topic.
Welcome everyone to this special TH-cam Premier.
This brilliant scholarly lecture made me proud once again to be a son this land. Thank you sir.
We are blessed to belong to the most ancient and glorious civilization. 🙏🏻
So much Happy to find this, Thanks you for your amazing work Sir, Some times In "Aswametha Yagya" Two/ three or even Four Horses are used ... Not just One ... and Next after winning a Place Horses are take to Border then Left Running from there ... So it is Possible that Different Horses made to run on different direction chosen by emperor , one after the Other .... Jai Sri Krishna
Extremely happy to attend this lecture. It would be really helpful if the a pointer or highlighter was used to point out the geographical elements ,when they r being described.
Yes. Especially when the map is zoomed out.
Great lecture. I felt thrilled that I attended this lecture. A small suggestion, if you don't mind, is please use Mouse or an electronic pointer to show us a particular place on the map. I struggled a bit to figure it out, but in the end, this is a very informative and brilliant lecture. Thank you very much. -Madhava, London, UK

Very informative & interesting . Thanks Dr. Bapat
Very informational and illuminating fact based lecture .
Indeed a very enlightening lecture!! Conquest extends up to those done by King Parikshit...
Great ... Greatest !! 👍👍👍🙏🙏🙏🌹🌹🌹
Too good🙏
You seem not to have covered some of the most vital passages in the Mahabharata relating to cosmo-geography, that narrated by Sanjaya at the beginning of the war. Many of those passages are common with the Padma Purana.
Some mentions of people are anachronic. North West and west regions looks like after the invasion of Yavanaas (Ionian greeks) . One can argue that Shakas came round 100 bc, pushed by Kushanas. Tusharas (Turks) can be considered living in the area for long time but there nomadic people, keep moving steppe regions.
Great 👍
Great...
Though i am not a learned man still enjoyed your lecture
Thank you
Hi sir, the maps are taken from which book ?
Where I can find the high quality images of the map?
maybe there is another meaning to those words used in describing in internal structure of earth because there is a vast grammar of Sanskrit as nighantu which must be considered in map locating ..
Dhanyawad.🙏🙏🙏
Mahabharatacha upsanvhar...in marathi
The berbers mentioned in Mahabharata in campaigns of Sahadeva and Karna, do they correspond to the Berbers of Africa???
good thing we have such knowledge....probably what Karna had to go through due to caste system should not happen to someone else now that such knowledge exists !
You really are persfect description of half knowledg seeker.🤦
Karna was never discriminated based on his jati.
Pl upload this lecture in Marathi..
कृपया हा vdo मराठीत अपलोड करावा.
Srimad bhagavtam 12th canto chapter 1 text 37 mentions a place - kaunti. What is that?
🙏🏻🙏🏻💐👏👏👏👏👏
Do you know...?? I also belong to one of the ancient tribes you mentioned in your presentation.I mean that's cool..👍
खूपच छान व्याख्यान. खूप माहितीपूर्ण. महाभारतात चौलचा चंपावती म्हणून उल्लेख येतो का ?
In TN we have a rice variety Champa and even long thin variety of Wheat is referred to as Champa Koduma
Why didn’t you mention Yavana Kings being part of Mahabharata?
✌️🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🇮🇳🇮🇳
You have collected lot of information except for some routes and expeditions.
Good job.
But the the narration is too boring. It should keep the listener's attention and flow easily. Try to get a person who is blessed with such voice and flow for next videos. You will gain many more admirers of your work 🙏

Dude,They are institute in themselves.🤷
Please do not use the words Mythology, mythical etc...lets start using 'ithihas', 'ithihsic' etc
Oh come on those are just good mythologys and not facts
भारत प्रभु जी , आप सही कहा।

This particular verse is fake. Sahdev couldn't have any contact with Roma/Roman as seem to suggest. Mahabharata took place about over 5000 years ago and Roman empire little over 2500 years ago from now ( year 2022 gregorian). Careful.
हिंदी में बताएंगे न
It's English. It's a topic that people from all states of India, and from all over the world, are curious about.
@@bhandarkarorientalresearch2553 but for many people like us pl. provide in hindi translations also.🙏🙏🙏
@@bhandarkarorientalresearch2553 जो मनुष्य प्राणी जानने का इच्छुक होगा वो हिंदी को सीखेगा। पूर्ण विश्व के लोगों का भार आप लोग किसलिए लेते हो?
हमारी भाषा हिंदी है कोई अनार्य भाषा जो हम पर थोपी जा रही है उसमे इतिहास और धर्म कुछ भी मत बताओ।
Can anyone explain what they understood from this "lecture" ??? 😂
Please leave the British and librandus mindset and start calling it History not mythology. Firstly we have to recognise our history then world will also recognise.
Jai Bharatavarsha, Jai Bhawani.
Mythical cosmology?? Nothing mythical about it. This program format seems to be some Jews idea of reducing Mahabharata. Boundaries of Bharat of that time were not the boundaries of todays truncated India. Whole world was Hindu until recently. Also not much mention of Krishan, the main hero.
I concur with each word you expressed.
Good 👍 but the awful pronunciation and affected English and delivery of speech are jarring to the listeners. He has to bestow more attention in my opinion...!?
