The language is very easy to understand, making it perfect for beginners who are new to Indian scriptures or dharmic books. The storytelling is engaging and flows smoothly, keeping the reader interested from start to finish. Rajaji has simplified the complex original text without losing the essence of the stories or the deep moral lessons. Each character is brought to life in a way that’s relatable and thought-provoking. If you're looking to start reading dharmic literature or want to understand the values and culture of ancient India, this book is a great place to begin. Review: The perfect, concise version of the Epic - This is just the book I was looking for. I have heard a number of sub-stories in Mahabharat. The only thing I needed was putting it all together, in a simple, regular story book - like way. This book does just that. Note: This is not a verse by verse translation. It does not include a single verse. It narrates the story, the way one person narrates to another. C. Rajagopalachari, the learned man that he was, has done a commendable job in putting this complex epic in a story for beginners. For those who know only the gist of Mahabharat and want to know many more details of each character, this book is a good start. It contains a lot of anecdotes, a lot many sub-stories / incidents, that the reader might be unaware of. Also, there is no Bhagvad Gita or its explanation in the narration. So if you are looking for the Hindu philosophy as preached by Krishna to Arjuna, you will not find it in this book. For this he has written another book: Bhagavad Gita (A handbook for Students) . My rating is for the way of story telling, the incidents / anecdotes chosen and paper and book quality. I, by no means, am worthy or capable of giving a rating to the epic Mahabharat itself. Overall, a great book for those who are looking at a overall story of the epic in simple language. Highly recommended. ## Features - Physical Condition: No Defects ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #1,550 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #21 in Anthologies (Books) #88 in Reference (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 2,194 Reviews | ## Images ![Mahabharata - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71QLqMw+dwL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great starter for Dharmic literature! *by S***S on 1 September 2025* Rajaji's Mahabharata is one of the best introductions to this great Indian epic.

I gifted my mom this book and this is what she had to show me ( see the photo attached). Even before opening to read the book if a bunch of papers is so loosely bound or tied up, imagine the quality of book preparation. Kindly convey this to Bharatiya Vidya Bhavan. The content of the book is amazing and mind boggling, no doubts. I had always held Rajaji in high esteem for the command on English language that he had and the uninterrupted flow of the story. ## Frequently Bought Together - Mahabharata [Paperback] [Jan 01, 2010] C.Rajagopalachari - Ramayana - Bhagavad Gita a Handbook of Students --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/77154458-mahabharata](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/77154458-mahabharata) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-04-22*
