Not sure why you're saying that.. @my - 05/07/2010 08:16:05 PM 1624 Views

Re: Parva is not a translation of the MB, though, is it. It's a reinterpretation. Which is fine. Danae al'Thor - 09/07/2010 11:01:43 PM 1393 Views
It's spelled "Mahabharata". Tom - 03/07/2010 06:51:09 PM 1271 Views
That's not how it is pronounced though... fionwe1987 - 03/07/2010 08:54:27 PM 1306 Views
Traditional pronunciation vs. modern pronunciation Tom - 03/07/2010 09:47:52 PM 1287 Views
