The Mahabharata Saga

A family, a dice game, a war — and the song that changed everything. 10 steps, about 75 minutes.

  1. Bhishma's Vow: One terrible vow starts it all. Meet Bhishma, who gave up everything for his father.
  2. Pandavas & Kauravas: Two sets of cousins are born — five brothers, and a hundred.
  3. Draupadi's Swayamvara: A fish's eye, a bowman's focus, and the swayamvara that binds the story together.
  4. The Game of Dice: Everything is lost on a roll of dice. This is the story's deepest wound.
  5. The exile, on the map: Thirteen years in the wilderness — trace where the Pandavas wandered.
  6. The Failed Peace: Krishna himself carries the peace offer: just five villages. It is refused.
  7. The Bhagavad Gita: On the morning of war, Arjuna drops his bow — and Krishna begins to speak the Gita.
  8. The Death of Karna: The most tragic figure of the epic meets his fate. Karna deserves to be understood.
  9. The Aftermath: After the war: what victory costs, and what it means to rule justly.
  10. The Gita itself: Finish with the Gita itself — why one conversation on a battlefield is read every day, everywhere.
