Philosophy, ritual and mythology are the three pillars of ancient religions. This Book includes stories from both of the great epics of India-the Ramayana and the Mahabharata And through these stories we are introduced to two great Avatars of the Hindu tradition--Rama and Krishna.The common message that runs through the stories, which is very relevant in the present day world is:No matter how hopeless thing may seem, eventually righteousness prevails over unrighteousness, virtue defeats vice. Wonderful colour illustrations by noted Artists enrich this wonderful Book.
