I told you the story of Kouravas and Pandavas. On Vyaasas permission,I told you the story of Maha Bharatha.Your Life has attained salvation after hearing the story. Vaisampaayana sage told the story of Maha Bharatha to Janamejaya king.Sarpayaagam came to an end. Janamejaya king praised Astheeka mahamuni and pleased him. Romaharshanudu also named as Ugrasarvadu ,son of Soothudu,who in turn disciple of Vyaasa maharshi,told this Maha Bharatha story to Sownaka and other sages in the Naimisaaranya forest.Romaharshanudu went to visit Mahaa Yaaga .There in between intervals of Yaaga,Sages requested him to tell Maha Bharatha story.He told them the story,which was told to him By Vyaasa. Vyaasa maharshi was a great sage among great sages.He has vast knowledge of every thing. He always percieved rightness and went in that path all the time.He knew peace,penance and piousness.He understood well all the Vedas and their gist.He preached Righteousness and followed it to last detail.He is part of Almighty .It took him three years to write this Maha Bharatham.He entrusted his disciples to tell this story to the common man ,in the broader interest of humanity. One can understand all the four porushaardhas..Dharma,Ardha,kaama and Moksha..if one studies Maha bharatha. Romaharshana was grateful for the oppurtunity given to tell the story at the time of Yaaga.Hey sages!if any one hears or reads Maha Bharatha,he will be washed off all his sins.He would attain salvation.One will be freed of Brahma hathya paathakam.This Bhaaratham is also called as Jayaakhyaanam, because it would bring happiness and victory. I took help from Sri Mallampalli Durgaa mallikaarjuna Prasad Sasthris book on Mahabharatham. here ends the story of Maha Bharatham!!!!!!
