Relevance of Humanistic Ideology from Mahabharata: An Analytical Study | Chapter 9 | Recent Research Advances in Arts and Social Studies Vol. 4

 Mahabharata is a culmination of human expertise-experience-enlightment. The epic emphasizes the fact that there is nothing superior to human being and propagates the message “service to man is service to God”. The central theme of the study focuses in-depth foundation of truth and reality of the epic Mahabharata which is essentially moral and practical in everyday life. The paper attempts to highlight religious understanding behind human upliftment, impact of karma & fate in human life, performance of dharma, the foundations of lawful behaviour, essentiality of unique human skills, doctrines of self-purification and showcasing life-line of Karna, Bhisma and Yudhisthira all governing to lead a meaningful life. The study is descriptive and analytical in nature. The epic glorifies ethics as an essential appendage of Metaphysics because one can attain truth only by following all ethical rules and precepts prescribed for this purpose. The paper makes a modest attempt to portray the impact of the epic where Mahabharata depicts that a man succeeds who based firmly in the present, faces the future on the foundation of the past acts.
