“God / Brahman Speaking To Anne Terri Through The Holy Spirit:
I Sent to Vatsa Sridatta a Divine Request Through Anne, to Choose from one of the sections of The Adi Parva for his painting. I also Shared, that obviously We will be working in the Adi Parva for some time, for there are 19 Parvas, and Anne is not allowed to go further until she has posted and read each one within Our Main Site.
AMEN"
Vatsa's Reply:
GOD, The first section describing the significance of MAHABHARATA, should be beneficial for all to start with.
'HARI OM TAT SAT ' “AMEN”
1. THE ANUKRAMANIKA PARVA - SECTION I
Ugrasrava, the son of Lomaharshana, surnamed Sauti, who knows much about the Puranas, is very humble and shows humility to others. He goes to the sages who have taken ridged vows, and who are seated. It is they who attended the twelve years' sacrifice of Saunaka, who is also surnamed Kulapati. This took place in the forest of Naimisha. They were delighted that he was in their presence and they wanted to hear
Sauti tell them the stories of the Mahabharata.
He found great respect from the Holy Ones, and in turn gave reverence with joined palms, to the Sages also known as Munis.
He begins to describe the significance of the Mahabharata, claiming it to be the comprehensive synthesis of all human knowledge, and shares with them the importance in studying this vast work.

.... one of the Rishis beginning the conversation, asked him, 'Whence comest thou, O lotus-eyed Sauti, and where hast thou spent the time? Tell me, who ask thee, in detail.'
"Sauti said, 'Having heard the diverse sacred and wonderful stories which were composed in his Mahabharata by Krishna-Dwaipayana,
and which were recited in full by Vaisampayana at the Snake-sacrifice of the high-souled royal sage Janamejaya
and in the presence also of that chief of Princes, the son of Parikshit, and having wandered about, visiting many sacred waters and holy shrines,
I journeyed to the country venerated by the Dwijas (twice-born) and called Samantapanchaka where formerly was fought the battle between the children of Kuru and Pandu, and all the chiefs of the land ranged on either side.
Thence, anxious to see you, I am come into your presence. Ye reverend sages, all of whom are to me as Brahma; ye greatly blessed who shine in this place of sacrifice with the splendour of the solar fire: ye who have concluded the silent meditations and have fed the holy fire; and yet who are sitting--without care, what, O ye Dwijas (twice-born), shall I repeat, shall I recount the sacred stories collected in the Puranas containing precepts of religious duty and of worldly profit, or the acts of illustrious saints and sovereigns of mankind?"
"The Rishi replied, 'The Purana, first promulgated by the great Rishi Dwaipayana, and which after having been heard both by the gods and
the Brahmarshis was highly esteemed, being the most eminent narrative that exists, diversified both in diction and division, possessing subtile meanings logically combined, and gleaned from the Vedas, is a sacred work. Composed in elegant language, it includeth the subjects of other books. It is elucidated by other Shastras, and comprehendeth the sense of the four Vedas.
We are desirous of hearing that history also called Bharata, the holy composition of the wonderful Vyasa, which dispelleth the fear of evil, just as it was cheerfully recited by the Rishi Vaisampayana, under the direction of Dwaipayana himself, at the snake-sacrifice of Raja Janamejaya?'
