This was among Dr Narayanacharya’s extremely popular works, which made Sanatana Sajjanas take a particular interest in the Mahabharata. About the Author : Dr K. S. Narayanacharya is one of the tallest cultural doyens of Bharateeya Parampara. A great Vedic scholar, he was well- versed in multiple languages, including Sanskrit, Kannada, Tamil, and English. Many do not know that he was an English professor. He stands unmatched for his insights into the Vedas and Puranas, critical treatises and commentaries in the Srivaishnava Parampara, as well as in our larger tradition. He was among the few who had a deep understanding of modern literature both within India and outside. A wonderful storyteller, he wrote many stories in Kannada magazines on our Itihasa Puranas and made them accessible to the Astikas. He was extremely popular as a Pravachanakara, the traditional discourse maker. He brought together his superlative abilities of perspective, knowledge, rhetoric, and narration to weave a magical experience for his audience that made transcendental paths perceptible to take them on a journey towards Shraddha.
