The Mahabharata is a curious mixture of history and mythology, though the former aspect is the subject of grave doubts in the minds of the professional historians. This is called the fifth veda and it s universally acknowledged to be of pre-eminent importance. It extols its greatness itself in the following words : yad ihasti tad anyatra yan nehastri na tat kvacit (Whatever is here is also elsewhere: whatever is not here is extant nowhere). It contains not only the celebrated Gita but also a alarge number of other texts which are themselves independent treatises. It is a valuable product of the ancient Indian literature of post- Vedic age and seems to go back to the prehistoric stage of the human society.
This is the first time that ana english translation with original sanskrit text is being published. The english translation is done by M.N Dutt which is very lucid and accurate according to the sanskrit text. It was translated according text of Kolkata edition.
