In a fast-paced world, where information is readily available in the form of reels and shorts, do you want you or your young ones to pause and reflect on our culture and its value systems? If yes, look no further, you are holding the right book in your hands. Presented in a lucid style to captivate readers across age groups, this book aims to transport you to the glorious ages of our gods, goddesses, sages and warriors.
From Ganesha’s birth to his brother Karthikeya’s, from Satyavati’s courage to Kunti’s dilemma, from lesser-known Shantha to universally acclaimed Bhishma, this book straddles across a multitude of tales with something to imbibe from each of them. The book delves deep into the legends of our gods and goddesses – the Dashavatars of Vishnu, Shakti and Shiva, among others. More than the stories themselves, the book offers perspectives into the legends and glory of the different characters that our bygone eras have been blessed with. In this day and age, can we be an Eklavya in guru bhakti or a Vidura in upholding dharma or be fiercely loyal like Hanuman? This book aims to ignite such nuanced thoughts and perhaps initiate the readers onto a lifelong spiritual sojourn of sorts!
