   Very, most excellent dear Sir, it was waited upon for 35 years, I can’t thank you enough.
   This is not one of the greatest epics of the world, it is the single by far greatest of all books ever written. Though poetic it portrays a real story in real time, centered in the effulgent personality of Krishna.

    Both translations by Kisari Mohan Ganguli and Pratap Chandra Roy looks similar. eg, BOOK 2, section 4. Word by word same. Can anyone say based on which original Sanskrit text these translations were made. The Sanskrit texts available on the net seems to be different in meaning. For example in the above mentioned chapter it was said Yudhistir fed the Brahmins with Pork and Vension. But in the Sanskrit texts its only Ghee-Payas, Fruits and roots.

    Thank you so, so very much. I need this for research to defend Krishna and the Bhagavad-Gita. The war was a just war like with Moses and the Amalekites and Muhammad and the Quraysh. There are times when duty prevails over ahimsa, for evil must be brought to justice and not be permitted to roam free causing death and destruction.

    Some pages are missing / not scanned:
    Adi Parva – Chapter 23 is scanned partially – ony up to 18.
    Adi Parva – Chapter – 24,25,26,27,28 are missing.
    Scanning quality is poor, seems carelessly done towards the end.More pages could be missing.
    Please inform Google as this scanning was part of their project and they must have paid good money to someone to get this done.
    I am sure they will rectify if they come to know.

    Dear Ganguly-saheb,

    This is an excellent work by yourself! Thank you for the passion of translating the greatest Epic of the world. Translation was needed to teach the future generations with the greatest epic. They should not ideally need some XYZ story book at the bed time to learn nothing in their life. This book should be the everyday reading of every Indian kid to learn the teachings of Mahabharata by their heart!
