Detailed explanation-1: -In the Hindu epic Mahabharata, Nakula (Sanskrit: ) was the fourth of the five Pandava brothers. Nakula and Sahadeva were twins blessed to Madri, by the Ashvini Kumaras, the divine physicians.
Detailed explanation-2: -While we think these happened in two different yugas, in the Vishnu Purana, the Ramayana and the Mahabharata are two chapters of the same story. Vishnu takes the avatar of Rama in the Ramayana–chapter one–and Krishna in the Mahabharata–chapter two. It is not yugas, but a story of one kalpa, or aeon.
Detailed explanation-3: -Based on astronomical information such as position of constellations and time of eclipses available in scriptures, they have concluded that events in the Ramayana took place 7, 000 years ago and events in the Mahabharata took place 5, 000 years ago.
