Article Link: Re-writing of the Mahabharat…
Did you know that the Mahabharat was re-written in the past at least twice? That’s what this article (and many others by scholars and historians) claim. True or not, the concept of re-positioning the eternal values presented in the Mahabharat are worth a second look and some forethought.
After reading the article, post your thoughts on whether you think it’s a good idea to re-position stories to fit today’s examples, realities, and generational nuances? Is it right or wrong? If the original values are kept in tact while the stories are changed, does that alter your judgment?
