Yuganta: Essays on the Mahabharata

[@ssthomas3367]

Good....in Mahabharat , as per your knowledge, who was the most crooked and intelligent person ? what was his aim ?.. Vyasa Maharshi clearly says who he was , in a secret way hidden in so many chapters.... Because Vyasa was the ultimate genius ever lived on this earth.

The beauty of the Mahabharata - to me - is that there is no one single identifiable person who is either the "most intelligent" or the "most crooked". The Mahabharata shows humans how we really are, at the depths of our psyche and under various circumstances of life. I agree with you that Vyasa maharshi was a genius - because to bring such a brilliant and human story that continues to teach so many values, is an incredible feat.
