Ramayana's Bharadvaja is teacher, Mahabharata's Drona is warrior guru from "summary" of Ramayana Versus Mahabharata by Devdutt Pattanaik

In the epic Ramayana, Bharadvaja plays the role of a teacher to Rama and his brothers. He imparts knowledge and wisdom to them, guiding them on their journey and helping them navigate the challenges they face. Bharadvaja's teachings are focused on righteousness and duty, instilling in them a sense of morality and integrity that shapes their actions throughout the epic. On the other hand, in the Mahabharata, Drona is portrayed as a warrior guru who trains the Pandava and Kaurava princes in the art of warfare. Drona's teachings are more practical and skill-based, focusing on combat techniques and strategies for battle. He prepares the princes for the great war that lies ahead, honing their fighting skills and instilling in them the discipline and courage needed to face their enemies. While Bharadvaja's role is more spiritual and philosophical, guiding the characters on a path of righteousness and moral conduct, Drona's role is more practical and tactical, preparing the characters for physical combat and warfare. Both teachers play crucial roles in shaping the destinies of the characters in their respective epics, influencing their actions and decisions in profound ways. The contrast between Bharadvaja and Drona highlights the different themes and focuses of the Ramayana and the Mahabharata. The Ramayana emphasizes moral and ethical values, while the Mahabharata delves into the complexities of human nature and the moral dilemmas faced by its characters. The roles of Bharadvaja and Drona reflect these overarching themes, guiding the characters on their respective paths and shaping the outcomes of their stories.
