there.
now that the short summary of the 18 books was improved and published i can start a more detailed summary of each of the 18 books called parvas.
i now give a more lengthy summary of book one but if you prefer, it is already summarized in book one section 2 describing book one.
MAHABHARATA book one ONE named adi parva. first =Adi, fixing RAMESH boring summary
intro: "The Mahabharata has 18 books called parvas. the first of 18, is named Adi, kuz in Sanskrit, meaning is first. adi was divided by some into 19 sections". its second section has an internal summary of the 18 parvas. however some start the mahabhararta after that kuz 207 pages are only introduction before the mehebharata starts with king santanu's wife agreeing to the gods request to kill their children.
after i summarized and published already the part of section two that describes the 18 books i can now expand more details for each section to help find the more attractive stories.
__Adi Parva
1. Anukramanika-Parva is only one chapter ["275 verses"]. it fills 15 pages so i summarize here:
in the Naimisa forest, Sage Saunaka was performing a sacrifice that would continue until 12 years. ascetics were gathered there, when Ugrasravas came. ug' was a teller for tales. the sages asked for the story of the Mahabharata at the snake sacrifice. Ugrasravas [merely] inroduced the Mahabharata.
Sage Vyasa [who shared the name krishna with other krishnas] saw the first egg from which gods and men exited. he knew the four Vedas.
the story is both related concisely [in section 2 no name in some versions] before the detailed stories. by denying himself pleasures he accurately saw the stories. when Vyasa wanted to teach it, a god came, he was brahma who had the purpose of Creator, [huh? this section puts isa as more purposes later divided to vishnu and siva coincidently "isa" is the same ancient name of jesus who the author believed in as the one god who others called by three names as indicated in this section] who "cared for"= sustainer all. Brahma advised him that the god Ganesha should write "what you say".
Ganesha came and wrote the epic.
Vyasa [kr' dw'], of the clan of the Bharats, bore 3 sons Dhritarashtra, Pandu. Vidura. After they died, Vyasa told the story of the Mahabharata. At the request of Janamejaya, Vaisampayana told it.
King Pandu visited sages in the forest for hunting. when he shot deer they were "an ascetic couple in the guise of deer". he dwelled in the forest until he died. his wife Madri entered his funeral pyre burning both.
** the book "around world in 80 days" referd to this as real hindu idea].
The ascetics led the Pandavas to Bhishma's care. The Pandavas learned weapons. they married Draupadi.
at Dharmaraja's sacrifice, Duryodhana felt jealous of the Pandavas's wealth. after one gambled and lost in the game of dice, the Pandavas went to the forest and later lived in disguise. at the end of the agreed time, Duryodhana refused to return their kingdom. For this reason, a war broke out between the Kauravas and the Pandavas. p' overcame Kauravas. Vidura consoled Dhritarashtra, who mourned his sons' death.
If anyone reads even one foot of a stanza of this epic, his sins are removed.
In ancient times the gods put the four Vedas in one pan of the balance and the Mahabharata in the other. The Mahabharata outweighed the Vedas greatness.
