Taken literally, stories, symbols and rituals of Hindu mythology have much to say about gender relationships. Taken symbolically, they reveal many more things about humanity and nature. Which is the correct reading? The third title in the bestselling Hindu Trinity series focuses on the goddess, and respected mythologist Devdutt Pattanaik tries to unravel the secrets locked within her stories, symbols and rituals.

Prithvi, a twenty-one-year-old seeker, is drawn into a mystery when he learns that Om Shastri, a reclusive middle-aged Aghori, has eluded time for centuries. Captured and imprisoned on a remote, high-tech island lab, Om is interrogated under heavy sedation. To everyone's astonishment, the Aghori prophetically claims that he has lived through all four cosmic ages (yugas) of Hindu cosmology and even witnessed the great epics themselves.

The final battle looms as ultimate secrets are unveiled. A single question haunts both sides: Who is the true "Devdhwaja" –Nagendra or Om? Tensions among allies reach a breaking point. Nagendra shocks everyone by returning from apparent death, unharmed and more powerful than ever before, suggesting he has unlocked some forbidden science or magic.

The demon-king, Mahisha, rules Jambudvipa with an iron fist. He wears the horns of a buffalo and has the will of a bull. With allies far and wide, his kingdom—usurped from the Aryas—is prosperous. All seems aboveboard. But Jambudvipa’s underbelly rots. Teeming with crime, sin, and greed, the city and its people are not what they seem. Most of all, Mahisha himself. With his iron fist comes immense cruelty, horrific violence… He must be stopped.

The war for immortality has only just begun. In the aftermath of Book 1, the protagonists suffer a setback: the sacred manuscript of Mrit Sanjeevani has been stolen and fallen into enemy hands.

In this Very Short Introduction, Kim Knott offers a succinct and authoritative overview of this major religion, and analyzes the challenges facing it in the 21st century. She discusses key preoccupations of Hinduism such as the centrality of the Veda as religious texts, the role of Brahmins, gurus, and storytellers in the transmission of divine truths, and the cultural and moral importance of epics such as the Ramayana.

The Saraswati Chalisa is a beautiful hymn in praise of Goddess Saraswati. In Hinduism, Goddess Saraswati is worshipped as the deity of knowledge, music, art, and wisdom. She is also known as Veenavadini, the goddess of speech, and the presiding deity of learning. Worshipping Goddess Saraswati grants one education, intellect, and knowledge, which can lead to success in life.

The Lakshmi Chalisa is a beautiful hymn dedicated to Goddess Lakshmi, composed by Ramdas. It praises Lakshmi Mata, who dispels the sorrows (dukh) of people.
