Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The basic dynamism of God has been defined in Indian philosophy as nature or Prakriti which is supposed to be Primeval Power that has been visualized from time immemorial as 'Adyashakti' by seers and thinkers.'Adyashakti' is again the integral active form of God keeping the entire cosmos in control while Her manifestation has been portrayed by the artists and sculptors of ancient India as the Supreme Goddess Mahamaya, the creative force of the Universe. That is why She is also known as Brahmani which is an epithet of Durga. The genesis of the concept of the Supreme Goddess Mahamaya is to be found in the prevailing faith of a great number of people on the supremacy of matriarchal culture. Mahamaya or Brahmani is also known as Durga, Chamunda, Chanda, Kali, Amba and Mahishasurmardini. These violent forms of Mahamaya denote her victory over the vicious and sinful elements. She is represented on these various violent forms as a slayer of demons and sinners. She is also represented as Maha Sarasvati, the great Goddess of learning and absolute Knowledge. She is as well represented as MahaLakshmi, the great Goddess of wealth, beauty and Bliss. Like the Triad of Brahma, the God of Creation, Vishnu the God of Protection and Mahesh the God of Destruction, Mahamaya also assumes the role of Creation, Protection and Destruction. Durga or MahaKali destroys the wicked while Maha Lakshmi and Maha Sarasvati uphold Virtue, spread enlightenment and grant power and prosperity while offering protection. In this volume we present select stories about Durga. The stories allegorically describe struggles between gods and demons and teach the human race to hope that eventually truth and justice prevail. The stories are designed for children and are accompanied with beautiful illustrations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a "must have" addition to your children's library to help them gain the basic knowledge about Hindu Mythology while reading some interesting stories. This book includes an introduction to Hindu mythology with descriptions about the main Gods and Goddesses, and several short stories from Hindu mythology. It contains 4 sections. Hindu Gods and Goddesses - A quick introduction Dashaavatar Stories - 10 stories Krishna Stories - 6 stories Contest Stories - 4 stories Dashaavatar stories narrate the stories of the 10 avatars of Vishnu. So, there are 10 stories. Krishna stories section includes a collection of 6 stories about interesting events from Krishna avatar. Contest stories section has 4 stories about the various face offs between Hindu Gods and Goddesses. Reviewed by Courtnee Turner Hoyle for Readers' Favorite Hindu Mythology Stories by Lakshmi Narayani is a guide for children to learn more about the Hindu culture and religion. After a thorough synopsis, the author shares several Hindu children's stories that are important as a foundation for understanding Hindu beliefs and ties up the book with tales of contests. Most of the stories represent a battle between good and evil, and the overview of the stories will give readers more insight into Hindu beliefs, as they discover the boons and curses dispensed by the mythological beings the author describes. The words are easily digestible for young ears and eyes, and some of the stories are truly fascinating. The author has done a beautiful job of summarizing the main points while making them appealing to young minds. The beautiful illustrations complement the text as the reader combs through the stories that apply to the images. Lakshmi Narayani knows how to keep a reader's attention while also providing a wealth of information about Hindu mythology! Some of the author's comments were truly interesting, as there were mentions of previously made scientific discoveries that were evident in the depictions of certain accounts. I shared the book with my children, and they were engaged with the text, but I was also drawn into the descriptions Narayani constructed so easily. The author suggests the book adorn a child's library, but many adult readers could benefit from the information, as well! I recommend Hindu Mythology Stories to readers who seek to gain a better understanding of Hindu mythology. Reviewed by Emily-Jane Hills Orford for Readers' Favorite There is a Holy Trinity of Hindu gods: Brahma (who is often considered the main god, the Creator), Vishnu (the Preserver), and Shiva (the destroyer or transformer of the universe). Each god has their own unique manifestation of the Divine and each one has a family with offspring that are also gods, but minor gods. Like all religious beliefs, Hinduism is full of stories about these gods, their creation, and their manifestations. It can be both an exciting and confusing exercise to study Hindu gods, but their stories can be broken down and simplified for all to understand. Lakshmi Narayani's children's book, Hindu Mythology Stories: Hindu Gods, Goddesses and Their Stories, is a great way to introduce Hindu gods to young readers. The author has compiled a selection of stories significant to the Hindu deity manifestations. Each story is told with care, providing enough backstory to make sure the young reader isn't confused by all the details. The book is well laid out. There are boldly colorful illustrations depicting the gods which add another interesting dimension to this collection. This book is a fascinating introduction to Hindu gods and Hindu mythology. Although written for young readers, this book will certainly spark interest in older readers as well.
