The Puranas are sacred texts of Hinduism. According to belief, after having composed the Mahabharata, Vedavyasa composed the Puranas. Each Purana describes five subjects: the original creation of the universe; the periodical process of destruction and re-creation; the different eras; the histories of the solar and lunar dynasties; and the royal genealogies. The three main gods of the Hindu pantheon are Brahma, the creator; Vishnu the preserver and Shiva is the destroyer. Six Puranas that are identified with Brahma are: Brahma Purana, Brahmanda Purana, Brahmavaivarta Purana, Markandeya Purana, Bhavishya Purana and Vamana Purana. Six Puranas that are identified with Vishnu are: Vishnu Purana, Naradiya Purana, Bhagavat Purana, Garuda Purana, Padma Purana and Varaha Purana. Finally, six Puranas that are identified with Shiva are: Matysa Purana, Kurma Purana, Linga Purana, Shiva Purana, Skanda Purana and Agni Purana. This book describes all the Puranas briefly and narrates one abridged story from each. The stories chosen are the ones that most Hindus are familiar with and which have even passed into folklore.

Do you know the story where Brahma and Vishnu race against each other or where Shiva battles Krishna? Do you know about Maya Sita or Narada's monkey face? Or why Surya falls from the sky or why Chandra commits adultery? The Puranas of Hinduism are a universe of wisdom, embodying a fundamental quest for answers that makes them forever relevant. Now, for the first time, 100 of the greatest mythological tales from these ancient texts have been handpicked and compiled into an epic illustrated edition. Besides popular legends of devas, asuras, sages and kings, Satyarth Nayak has dug up lesser-known stories, like the one where Vishnu is beheaded or where Saraswati curses Lakshmi or where Harishchandra tricks Varuna. Nayak also recounts these 100 tales in a unique chronological format, beginning with Creation in Satya Yuga and ending with the advent of Kali Yuga. Using Puranic markers, he constructs a narrative that travels through the four yugas, offering continuous and organic action. In such a reading, it is revealed that these stories are not isolated events but linked to each other in the grand scheme of things. That every occurrence has a past and a future. A cause and effect. An interconnected cycle of karma and karma-phal. Delving into the minds of gods, demons and humans alike, Mahagatha seeks a deeper understanding of their motivations. The timelessness of their impulses speaks across the aeons to readers of today. Written in lively prose with charming illustrations, these 100 tales will entertain and enlighten, and make you connect the dots of Hindu mythology like never before.

Varuna Purana is a collection of ten stories about Lord Shiva. Many of the stories are well-known, such as the destruction of the sacrifice of Daksha, the destruction of Tripura, and the legend of the demon Andhaka. But other stories are unique to this Purana, such as the story of the first recitation of the Brahma Sutras by Agni, the messenger of the gods; the story of the activities of the gods during the time of cosmic dissolution; and the story of the cosmic dance of Lord Shiva. But Varuna Purana is much more than a collection of stories, it is also a concise digest of complete knowledge of all the 40 branches of Vedic Science. At the same time it is a handbook and guide for growing experiences on the path to enlightenment. This Purana is a brilliant tour de force of its author, the Rishi Shaunaka, who lived thousands of years ago. A special feature of this ancient text is the clear explanation, by the narrator, Lord Varuna, of the metaphor of the stories in terms of the growth of higher states of consciousness-the growth of enlightenment, the inner awakening. Shiva is a metaphor for the process of transcending and experiencing pure consciousness, "samadhi," as it is called in Yoga, the state of oneness of eternal unmanifest Being. The aniconic form of Shiva, called the "Lingam," is a metaphor for the highest goal of evolution, called "Brahman" in Vedanta, and understood as the supreme, ultimate knowledge of Reality. All of the stories together, in sequence present the milestones in the growth of consciousness on the path to the total awakening in Brahman Consciousness. Since ancient times Varuna Purana has been accepted as one of the 18 Upapuranas. However, in modern times the text has been neglected, and only one copy of the manuscript is known. The text has been transcribed, edited and restored, and translated here for the first time. This book includes the Sanskrit text of Varuna Purana; an English translation; an essay on the importance of Upapurana in Vedic Literature; an analysis of the origin and authenticity of the text; a detailed exposition of the milestones of experience in the growth of higher states of consciousness; parallel passages from other Puranas for each story; and a pictorial presentation of the 108 Karanas or dance-gestures that make up the Dance of Shiva, according to Natya Shastra. All the eternal wisdom of life contained in the Puranas is encapsulated in this Varuna Purana: It is a concise digest of the essential teaching of the Vedas, the wisdom of God realization.

After researching for almost 9 years on Indian Scriptures like Vedas, Puranas and Upanishads, I find its practical similarity with science. In this Book, I have conceptualized my opinion and written the first part of my research that is divided into four chapters. First four revolves around creation and fifth one is Ramayana in altogether new form. My Ramayana version is derived from Puranic, Valmiki's and Medieval versions. Hope you will find some logic in these Mythological stories.
