When did the Mahabharata War Happen

The Title of the book is actually ‘When did the Mahabharata War Happen’ The sub-title is ‘The Mystery of Arundhati’ The earlier part of the book is about ‘Arundhati’ Shri. Oak has written a large no. of pages about Astronomical concepts which I found very interesting. Although I had studied a little Astronomy as a part of my Civil Engineering course my information had gone rusty and I had several dialogues with Shri. Oak on some of the concepts. He was very patient! Slowly I started getting a grasp, at least sufficiently, to start understanding the arguments in the book. A reader of his book will have to make quite some effort to grasp the concepts without which the subject matter of the book on ‘Arundhati’ cannot be appreciated. I will assume that the readers of the book and this blog have made that effort. From next post onward I will write about the subjects covered in the book.
