Sri Veda Vyasa
Vyasa appears for the first time as the author and an important character in the Hindu epic Mahabharata. The epic, whilst having its roots in historical events centuries before the common era, is an extraordinarily long compendium of legend, myth, philosophy and semi-historical material about ancient India.It is impossible to point out when the 'Historical' Vyasa lived or disentagle a factual story from the legendary material contained in the epic. According to the Mahabharata, he was the son of Satyavati, a ferryman's daughter, and the wandering sage Parashara. He was born on an island in the River Yamuna. He was dark in colour and hence was named Krishna and as he was born on an island(Sanskrit Dweepa), he was also called Dwaipayana. Krishna-Dwaipayana is the proper name he is generally known as.The child grew upto be an adult as soon as he was born and adopted the life of an ascetic and soon became one of the greatest Rishi(Sage).
