Résumé
Gods, Demons, and Serpents of India is a vivid journey into one of the richest mythological traditions in the world. From the golden embryo of creation to the cosmic sleep of Vishnu, from Shiva's dance of fire to the demon battles of the Mahabharata, this book gathers the gods, monsters, serpents, sages, warriors, goddesses, and sacred stories that shaped the religious imagination of India. Inside you will discover:.
The creation myths of ancient India. Indra's battle with the world-serpent Vritra. Brahma, Vishnu, Shiva, Durga, Kali, Krishna, Rama, and Ganesha. The great demons, asuras, rakshasas, and cosmic enemies of the gods. The sacred serpents, nagas, rivers, heavens, underworlds, and mythic landscapes. The Ramayana, Mahabharata, Bhagavad Gita, Vedas, Puranas, and Upanishadic ideas. A glossary and appendix of principal figures for easy referenceDrawing on classical mythology, epic literature, sacred tradition, and later scholarship, Gods, Demons, and Serpents of India retells these ancient stories with clarity, drama, and reverence for their complexity.
This is a book for readers of mythology, folklore, world religion, ancient history, Hindu tradition, and anyone drawn to stories where gods walk among mortals, demons challenge heaven, serpents hold up the universe, and creation itself begins in mystery.
