Publisher's summary

You might know that Greek gods interfered on both sides of the Trojan War, but did you know that Hindu gods fought alongside both the Pandavas and Kauravas in the Mahabharata? In the same way the ancient Egyptians worshiped Ra above all else, did you know that the monkey-god, Hanuman, gained his wisdom from the sun? Did you know that Krishna and Hercules are often linked to a past that includes Alexander the Great's conquests? And just as Noah had his ark, one of Lord Vishnu's avatars had a similar tale for Hinduism. All of us share the same stories because the things that unite us are far greater than the things that divide us.

I wrote this book because I wanted my loved ones to hear about Rama and Krishna and Saraswati as they also learned of Thor and Hercules, of Horus and Ra, of Noah, and Moses. In these 25 tales, you will be immersed in Hinduism in a way that highlights the traits I found most compelling in my research - tales of love, pride, virtue, and fate.

Good Book

An excellent thought-provoking book. Possibly transforming. I love it and it does challenge my mastery of self.

Interesting and funny

This book gives a wonderful take on the Greek myths. Having them told by Bharat Krishnan allows them to be filled with witty and sarcastic comments, making the myths interesting as well as informative. I've always loved mythology, but now my 7-year-old is interested too. She loved listening to this and actually learned from it 🙂

Wonderful book

Bharat has done an incredible job painting vivid pictures of his short pieces and making singular comparisons to the Bible, for instance.

Very Informative!!!

I love that. Who has different cultures in the world and they played a great role in molding our consciousness? Our culture as for institutes in from when we were young and the roots are deep-rooted. Some people have explored different cultures and this helps over and they have more to how they view themselves free so some cultures can affect our self-consciousness negatively and others positive in some culture hours are taken and viewed as laser human beings.

Great for beginning Buddhists.

This is another well thought out and beautifully presented a guide on Buddhism. I have been interested in Buddhism for some time and when I read a trilogy of books that featured a Buddhist, it rekindled my interest and I decided to study more. Great one, love this one!

I liked the explanations.

This is a wonderful primer on Hinduism. I highly recommend. This book answered my most basic questions about Hinduism succinctly and directly. Now I can go to the Temple with my friends and know what to expect.

A very basic yet quite informative introduction to Hinduism. A good place to begin.

best book

Was downloaded, listened to and sounds fine. Not the most recognized song, so it was cool to see this blast from the past available on Amazon. It's what my heart yearned for (just) now.
