Mahabharata characters and conclusion

Krishna, is the mentor, the teacher, one who is everyone's friend and the most knowledgeable. He was the master of the power play , the brain behind the conclusion of the story. One of the most successful and calibrated life in whole of Indian mythology is of Krishna, considered as the 8th incarnation of Lord Vishnu.
Draupadi, is my all time favorite lady of Indian mythology. She is one of the most controversial and misunderstood character because of her bold decisions and moves, which was centuries ahead of time. Her life is full of hardships, with endless sequences of suffering time to time. But she stood all alone, fought for her self- respect and sacrificed everything to counter the injustice done to her all her lifetime. She was married to five, mistreated in the gambling game by her own husbands, was attempted to disrobe in a hall full of men, was sent in exile of 13 years along with her husband, fought a war against her own family members and abusers, lost the lives of her children, step-children, brother, sister and father in the war of Kurushetra. Draupadi, known for her beauty, strength, intellect is the shining jewel of the saga. She is the only woman in the history of India who justified all the bad done to her, as her revenge. She is the real fighter, the brightest example to everyone even today.
Besides these two, Arjun, Bheem, Karna, Kunti, Gandhari, Sakuni, Bhishma and Abhimanyu are some of the towering personalities over the epic and all the destroying war it describes.
Mahabharata, is considered as the "fifth Veda" due to its vastness and timeless conversation between Krishna and Arjun just before the "war of Kurushetra", known as Bhagwat Geeta .

Mahabharata - Indian biggest epic

Mahabharata, often referred originally as "Jai Samhita" is the greatest epic of all the time. The longest poem ever written, consists of over 1,00,000 couplets (2,00,000 verse lines) describes the solidity of it's content and gravity of knowledge people held in the golden, celebrated history of India. " Whatever is here may be found elsewhere, what is not, cannot be find anywhere else ."says one of the the most introducing verse of the Sanskrit epic. After going through the epic and with my little knowledge gathered, I can assure you that this epic is whole in itself as the verse above describes. Mahabharata is the cauldron of emotions, insecurities and jealousies. It overshadows each and every kind of emotion that we humans feel. Every kind of relationship through which humans can associate with each other is described here in some way or other. The Mahabharata is an intricately woven saga of hatred and love, bloodshed and noble thoughts, courage and cowardice,...
