{"product_id":"2940148270409","title":"Hindu Mythology Vedic and Puranic","description":"This is a comprehensive study of Hindu mythology. Due to the huge number of gods and goddesses, and their changing role through centuries of Indian spiritual life, this is a complex subject. This book covers Hindu mythology during the Vedic and Puranic periods. Wilkins starts with the very earliest pantheon of the Vedas, such as Surya, the storm-god Maruts, Agni, Soma, Yama, and the dawn Goddess Ushas. From there he moves into the later, and very intricate, Puranic mythology. This includes detailed treatment of the central triad of Brahmâ, Vishnu and Shiva, along with dozens of other Gods and Goddesses, nature spirits, half-divine heros of the epics, and so on. Wilkins covers the dozen of so principal avatars of Vishu, including Krishna and (suprisingly) Buddha, and prophecies of the mysterious Kalki avatar, yet to come. The dozens of line drawings are good reference art for each of the major deities.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis Book contains below mentioned Title:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Vedas\u003cbr\u003eThe Vedic Gods Generally\u003cbr\u003eDyaus And Prithivi\u003cbr\u003eAditi, and the Ādityas\u003cbr\u003eAgni\u003cbr\u003eSun or Light Deities\u003cbr\u003eThe Storm Deities\u003cbr\u003eSoma\u003cbr\u003eTvastri or Visvakarma\u003cbr\u003eYama\u003cbr\u003eThe Purānas\u003cbr\u003eBrahma\u003cbr\u003eBrahmā and Sarasvati\u003cbr\u003eVishnu and Lakshmi\u003cbr\u003eThe Matsya or Fish Avatāra\u003cbr\u003eThe Kūrma or Tortoise Avatāra\u003cbr\u003eThe Varāha or Boar Avatāra\u003cbr\u003eThe Nrisingha or Man-Lion Avatāra\u003cbr\u003eThe Vāmana or Dwarf Avatāra\u003cbr\u003eThe Parasurāma Avatāra\u003cbr\u003eThe Rāma Chandra Avatāra\u003cbr\u003eThe Krishna Avatāra\u003cbr\u003eThe Balarāma Avatāra\u003cbr\u003eThe Buddha Avatāra\u003cbr\u003eThe Kalki Avatāra\u003cbr\u003eJagannāth\u003cbr\u003eChaitanya\u003cbr\u003eKamadeva\u003cbr\u003eSiva\u003cbr\u003eUmā\u003cbr\u003eSons of Siva and Pārvati\u003cbr\u003eThe Puranic Account of the Creation\u003cbr\u003eThe Purānic Divisions of Time\u003cbr\u003eThe Divine Rishis\u003cbr\u003eKuvera\u003cbr\u003eThe Demigods of the Rāmāyana\u003cbr\u003eThe Demigods of the Mahābhārata\u003cbr\u003eThe Planets\u003cbr\u003eThe Asuras\u003cbr\u003eSacred Animals and Birds\u003cbr\u003eGangā\u003cbr\u003eSacred Trees\u003cbr\u003eMiscellaneous Minor Deities\u003cbr\u003eSuperhuman, Though Not Divine Beings","brand":"Publish This, LLC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47122317836528,"sku":"2940148270409","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940148270409_p0.jpg?v=1763700402","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940148270409","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
