Mahabharat!

I follow this show on Star Plus without fail, Mon-Fri 8.30pm.
I always wanted to know about the great battle. Why it had happened? How it happened? Everything happens for some purpose and I wanted to know that purpose behind it. Also about the great Geeta gyan that lord Krishna gives to Arjun.
It's been amazingly featured. I am loving it!
May it be exams but I'm taking out half an hour for this show out of my schedule or I see repeat telecast if I happen to miss it due to unenforceable circumstances! :-)
I have learned many things till now and hoping to seek few more answers about life, my life through preaching of Krishna. They've shown Krishna as a narrator and in between scenes he emerges and make us think about few things. I'm awed by this show! :-) Thankfully my family had agreed to watch it by sacrificing their very old and famous show, favourite too, not mine but theirs. Now they're thankful to me that I made them watch it! Dekha... :-)

Last time when the old version came I was too young as well as we started watching it when the battle had begun and I had so many questions in my mind about it. Never found time or gave efforts, to be true, to know the answers to those questions and now as soon as I heard that the new show is coming up I decided to watch it from the very first episode.
On weekends I guess they show whole weeks episodes, for those who can't follow on weekdays but they have many repeat telecasts during weekdays too!

Hoping to follow it till the end of it and seek enlightenment about life! :-)

In yesterday's episode Guru Dronacharya asked right hand thumb from Eklavya as gurudakshina! The boy gave it without an iota of doubt and yet there was smile and same respect for his guru in his heart. I've heard this story about Eklavya but I always had doubts about why did Dronacharya asked such a thing. There had been different interpretations about the same. In Todays episode they'll show why he did so?! Perception is what is key to any learning. How we perceive a particular incident give us reason to perceive it as a good or a bad happening. Knowing about something in it's originality changes our wrong perceptions and that difference in perceptions is what is amazing thing about learning! New and right perceptions develop new ways of thinking and looking at things differently. :-)

Do watch it if you can!
My request... It's important to know about our history too and especially about our very ancient periods. I'm eager to know more and more about it! For it being true story it attracts me more!
