If the Mahābhārāt was a story and not history, Vyāsa should receive multiple Pulitzer prizes for his highly creative work! The Mahābhārāt is the longest literary work in the whole world with hundred thousand Saṃskṛit verses—the longest poem ever written with such delicate harmony of unmatched poetic perfection. It is larger than the Greek epics. Vyāsa had no computer, no tape recorder with speech-to-text capabilities. He dictated and Bhagavān Ganeṣa wrote it down!
