The Great Indian Epics The Stories Of The Ramayana And The Mahabharata

About the Book: - This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it. This work was reproduced from the original artifact, and remains as true to the original work as possible. Foremost amongst the many good things in the old world literature of India, stand the two famous epics, the Ramayana and the Mahabharata. Both the epics are very lengthy. They embrace detailed histories of wars and adventures, and many a story that the Western World would now called a mere fairy tale, to be listened to by children with wide-eyed attention. But interwoven with the narrative of events and legendary romances is a great bulk of philosophical, theological, and ethical materials, covering probably the whole field of later Indian speculation. The epics are a storehouse of Brahmanical instruction in the arts of politics and government, in ritualism and the conduct of daily life. The narrative, brief though it be, will reflect the more abiding features of Indian national life, revealing some unfamiliar ideas and strange customs. The book is the product of extensive study of both the epics. The author has preserved these few fine pictures from oblivion, which he tries to find the truth and actuality behind the epics.
