'Mahabharata' is the most popular among many Indian pieces of literature referred to in many domains for completely different purposes. This text itself is having various dimension and aspects which is useful for the human being in their personal life and professional life. This Indian Epic is originally written in the Sanskrit Language. Now in the era of Natural Language Processing, Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, and Human-Computer interaction this text can be processed according to the domain requirement. It is interesting to process this text and get useful insights from Mahabharata. The limitation of the humans while analyzing Mahabharata is that they always have a sentiment aspect towards the story narrated by the author. Apart from that, the human cannot memorize statistical or computational details, like which two words are frequently coming in one sentence? What is the average length of the sentences across the whole literature? Which word is the most popular word across the text, what are the lemmas of the words used across the sentences? Thus, in this paper, we propose an NLP pipeline to get some statistical and computational insights along with the most relevant word searching method from the largest epic 'Mahabharata'. We stacked the different text-processing approaches to articulate the best results which can be further used in the various domain where Mahabharata needs to be referred.

By Latha Srinivasan: There are many lessons to be learnt from the ideology of our Sanskrit epics, say scholars. The contribution of the Bhagavad Gita to management principles is well-documented today. Now, there is a train of thought that believes the Mahabharata can teach us how to manage machine autonomy and Artificial Intelligence (AI). While experts believe that AI will improve human effectiveness, capacities, and open a world of vast opportunities, it also presents us with unprecedented threats. So how does the Mahabharata help us in this context?

Ontological knowledge modelling of epics, though being an established research arena backed by concrete multilingual and multicultural works, still suffer from two key shortcomings. Firstly, all epic ontological models developed till date have been designed following ad-hoc methodologies, most often, combining existing general purpose ontology development methodologies. Secondly, none of the ad-hoc methodologies consider the potential reuse of existing epic ontological models for enrichment, if available. The paper presents, as a unified solution to the above shortcomings, the design and development of GENOME - the first dedicated methodology for iterative ontological modelling of epics, potentially extensible to works in different research arenas of digital humanities in general. GENOME is grounded in transdisciplinary foundations of canonical norms for epics, knowledge modelling best practices, application satisfiability norms and cognitive generative questions. It is also the first methodology (in epic modelling but also in general) to be flexible enough to integrate, in practice, the options of knowledge modelling via reuse or from scratch. The feasibility of GENOME is validated via a first brief implementation of ontological modelling of the Indian epic - Mahabharata by reusing an existing ontology. The preliminary results are promising, with the GENOME-produced model being both ontologically thorough and performance-wise competent
