Drona debuts the princes to the citizenry through a great competition. Arjuna dazzles everyone with his supreme skills. But Karna, an unknown youth, matches and bests Arjuna. The crowd is in awe.

The moral and righteous Yudhishthira makes ONE big error and loses everything as a result. Is life really this harsh and unforgiving? But we also see that Krishna was available to help as soon as Draupadi called to him. Is God ready and willing to help, and all it takes is for us to ask?

The indomitable Bhishma picks up his bow to fight. Who can resist him? Like a tornado in a forest, he decimates the Pandava army. Can Arjuna subdue this mighty warrior?

Encoded within the Mahabharata is deep and wonderful allegory that serves as a guidepost to leading an unselfish life filled with joy and devotion. The key is to understand who Bhishma really was. Once we know this, the marvelous map of Self-Realization, so carefully hidden by Veda Vyasa, falls i...

Abhimanyu - the young son of Arjuna - wreacks havoc on the Kauravas. All the mighty warriors slink away in abject defeat. The cowardly Kauravas attack Abhimanyu from behind.

Arjuna, furious and filled with grief takes a fearsome vow: Either I kill Jayadratha or I die! What follows is the greatest day of battle since Rama fought Ravana. Arjuna is unmatched in skill, power, speed and endurance. But is it enough to penetrate the Padma (lotus) battle formation?

The Kauravas are in trouble. The great Karna fights Arjuna. As the irresistible force meets an immovable object, the gods themselves gather to watch this extraordinary spectacle.

Duryodhana, having lost his 99 brothers, 11 battalions, and his dear Karna runs away. Bhima challenges him to a fight. Yudhishthira faces the aftermath of this great battle. Bhishma still lies on his bed of arrows. How will it all end?
