The Mahābhārata is one of the two major Sanskrit epics of ancient India, the other being
the Rāmāyaṇa. It narrates the struggle between two groups of cousins in the Kurukshetra

The Mahābhārata is an epic legendary narrative of the Kurukṣetra War and the fates of
the Kaurava and the Pāṇḍava princes. It also contains philosophical and devotional material,
such as a discussion of the four "goals of life" or puruṣārtha (12.161). Among the principal
works and stories in the Mahābhārata are the Bhagavad Gita, the story of Damayanti, an
abbreviated version of the Rāmāyaṇa, and the story of Ṛṣyasringa, often considered as works in
Traditionally, the authorship of the Mahābhārata is attributed to Vyāsa. There have been many
attempts to unravel its historical growth and compositional layers. The oldest preserved parts of

The Mahābhārata is the longest epic poem known and has been described as "the longest poem
ever written". Its longest version consists of over 100,000 śloka or over 200,000 individual verse
lines (each shloka is a couplet), and long prose passages. At about 1.8 million words in total,
the Mahābhārata is roughly ten times the length of the Iliad and the Odyssey combined, or about
four times the length of the Rāmāyaṇa.[10][11] W. J. Johnson has compared the importance of
the Mahābhārata in the context of world civilization to that of the Bible, the works of William
Shakespeare, the works of Homer, Greek drama, or the Quran.[12] Within the Indian tradition it is
