Mangalore, Jun 7:   The book release of ‘Role of Lord Krishna in Mahabharata’, authored by M Ranganath Pai, was held at SDM College in the city on Sunday June 6.

Union law minister M Veerappa Moily was the chief guest at the programme and released the book. Swami Poornakamananda, president, Sri Ramakrishna Math, Mangalore, presided over the function. 

The author has previously translated the Bhagavad Geetha into Konkani and recorded it into cassettes besides translating many hymns. The book consists of 450 pages and is written in English by the author.

San Bun Publishers assisted in the publishing of the book and the author’s wife Sumana Ranga Pai was his inspiration.


































Speaking to the audience, Ranganath Pai said that the book release is due to the grace of God and the first inspiration for it was his father who had written ‘Puranas’ which the author read later and it became a knowledge bank for this book.

He said that the book tells us about how Lord Krishna wanted to destroy the ‘Kshatriyas’ (proctors of law and justice) and used his wits to create war between the Kauravas and Pandavas which would end the rule of kings for that period.

Moily said that great books should be read in the right way by opening the doors for creativity and developmental thoughts. He said that reading these books will help us to solve the problems we are facing in our society currently.

Moily also threw light on the book written by him ‘Sri Ramayana Anveshanam’, which was written with scientific analysis and virtual analysis which will help the youngsters face the present problems easily.

Swami Poornakamananda said that people have become selfish and we have forgotten our values which are very important in Indian culture. He said that this culture can be understood by reading Ramayana and Mahabharata.

Venkatesh Pai, son of the author, gave the vote of thanks and said the book was successful for his father worked on it waking at 4 am everyday.

    Mr. Moily mentioned that Krishna had recommended a market survey and a project planning. Yes, this was when Yudhishtir wanted to perform a Rajasooya Yaga. When consulted Lord Krishna said, "Unless you win all the existing kings in Bharath Varsha, you can not perform this yaga. And you are not capable of defeatinh the King Jarasandha. So you can not perform it". Today, before starting a business we verify if we can stand the competition in the market. Then he planned how to defeat Jarasandha by studying his weakest moments. In a wrestling dual, Bhima defeated Jarasandha as per Krishna's plan. Then only Rajasooya yaga was possible.Being a story of war, He advised 'Market survey" and the "Project planning" to defeat many of the Pandava's enemies. The release of the book was in a School of Business Management. Both Krishna and Mr. Moily stood to protect Law and Justice. Moily, the author of a book on Sri Ram released my book on Sri Krishna. The President of Sri Rama Krishna Ashram presided over the function.

    As the author of the book, I realized that Krishna is most intelligent and noble one. He helped the needy if they plead his favor. He advised the right principles which He too followed. Though He lived like a common man, though He had extraordinary power, which He exhibited very rarely. He revealed Himself only to His best friend Arjun only to full fill a purpose. Today, we can live on the principles laid down by Him and then we can enjoy a peaceful and prudent life. To know how He lived, my book will help you. He lived with all modern theories and practices.
