The Mahabharata is one of the two major Sanskrit epics of ancient
India. It is an epic narrative of the Kurukshetra War and the fates
of the Kauravas and the Pandava princes as well as containing
philosophical and devotional material, such as a discussion of the
four goals of life. Here we have Mausala Parva, the sixteenth, in
which Krishna and Balarama die, the Yadavas are destroyed, the
Yadava women mourne their dead husbands and Dwaraka, the city of
Krishna, is submerged in the sea. Vyasa is a revered figure in
Hindu traditions. He is a kala-Avatar or part-incarnation of God
Vishnu. Vyasa is sometimes conflated by some Vaishnavas with
Badarayana, the compiler of the Vedanta Sutras and considered to be
one of the seven Chiranjivins. He is also the fourth member of the
Rishi Parampara of the Advaita Guru Parampar of which Adi Shankara
is the chief proponent.
