Episode Synopsis "Section Three : Poushya Parva"

This parva has 195 shlokas and one chapter. It is the story of Poushya. After the first two sections, Section 3 is where the main story of the Mahabharata should begin. But not only is this section mostly in prose, unlike the rest of the Mahabharata, it has little to do with it he main story, since it has all kinds of incidents that don’t quite belong. All this section does is set up the snake sacrifice.
