"Mahabharata"the great Indian epic narrates an eternal war between
the "Good" and the "Bad." Over the millenniums, billions of Indian
populi have gone through the story that made the basis of their
morality. In common notion, Krishna, the chief architect of the
force warring on behalf of the "Good" was an "Avtar," a human face
of God. Naturally, all that happened is considered to be the will
of the God. Thus the epic, in stead of a great depiction of eternal
contradictions, is mostly regarded as religious teachings. But the
fate of the war, however destined it may be, does not take the
shape automatically. It needs the vision, strong determination and
above all sacrifices on personal issues. Without these nothing can
prevail upon. Krishna would have easily remained reluctant like his
elder brother Balarama. Equally Panchali, the common wife of all
five sons of Kunti might have assorted to the easy life of a queen.
But they did not. They sacrificed their own individual aspirations
for the sake of a greater cause. Here all religious elements are
wiped out of the characters like Krishna and Panchali and they are
placed as human beings as like ours. And that makes the difference
to other versions of the story.
