I do not consider him great for one reason

concept of hinduism is defined by guiding principles from Bhagwad Geeta, the duty of a khsatriya is to fight for the land he represent and took oath to protect

ashoka ended up loathing himself after wars, he is one of the leaders who destroyed the morale of hinduism as it stands today, he is favorite for liberals though

 

 Going by your arguments there is no hinduism before bhagwad geeta? hinduism is not defined by bhagwad geeta.  it is one of those books which talks about it.

i did not say that, bhagavad geeta is entirely based on war, so is Ramayana and Mahabharata, BG talks in entirety about war

combination of all 3 proves that war is necessary element to establish righteousness
