At the time they were composed, there was no question of texts being written down. That tradition is like revelation, without any composer. The epics are not part of the shruti tradition. Well before we go further, we should to know about the Shruti and Smirti tradition. Note: Current Mahabharata is not written by Veda Vyasa, it means we don’t have original Mahabharata. There was no Book (composition) Named Jaya with 8800 Shlokas (Will explain it). By the way, we don’t have any Mahabharata right now which have 100,000 Shokas.Īgain, Jaya aka Bharata aka Mahabharata was composed by Krishna Dvaipayana in two sets, first composition had 100,000 (with Upakhayanyas) Shlokas and 2 nd had 24000 Shlokas and both were called as Jaya, Bharata and Mahabharata. There are general thoughts that Jaya had 8,800 Shlokas, Bharata with 24,000 Shlokas and Mahabharata were composed in 100,000 Shlokas. These all are same and composed by Veda Vyasa aka Krishna Dvaipayana and got different name due different reasons (Will explain). Jaya, Bharata and Mahabharata are not different versions of Mahabharata at all. We all have numerous discussion regarding Jaya, Bharata and Mahabharata and which was written first and when and who wrote it.įorgot the current Mahabharata ( KMG, Gita Press, BORI and others), I’m talking about ancient Mahabharata with current references.
