  • Description
    Did you know that Brahma once had five faces? Why do snakes have a forked tongue? Do gods cheat? Why does Shiva sport a crescent moon on his head? The Trinity, consisting of Brahma, Shiva and Vishnu, is the omnipresent trio responsible for the survival of the human race and the world as we know it. They are popular deities of worship all over India, but what remain largely unknown are some of their extraordinary stories. Award-winning author Sudha Murty walks by your side, weaving enchanting tales of the three most powerful gods from the ancient world. Each story will take you back to a magical time when people could teleport, animals could fly and reincarnation was simply a fact of life.

    Just wow!

    These books on mythology , are just so easy to read and if you have Grandma or grandpa i'm sure you've heard most of them ... It just a bit more precised version of their Stories which is kind of nostalgic , reminds me of my happy childhood . Its fun to read .
