An exploration of 99 classic myths of India from an entirely non-Western paradigm that provides a fresh understanding of the Hindu spiritual landscape - Compares and contrasts Indian mythology with the stories of the Bible, ancient Egypt, Greece, Scandinavia, and Mesopotamia - Looks at the evolution of Indian narratives and their interpretations over the millennia - Demonstrates how the mythology, rituals, and art of ancient India are still vibrant today and inform the contemporary generation From the blood-letting Kali to the mysterious Ganesha, the Hindu spiritual landscape is populated by characters that find no parallel in the Western spiritual world. Indian Mythology explores the rich tapestry of these characters within 99 classic myths, showing that the mythological world of India can be best understood when we move away from a Western, monotheistic mindset and into the polytheistic world of Hindu traditions. Featuring 48 artistic renderings of important mythological figures from across India, the author unlocks the mysteries of the narratives, rituals, and artwork of ancient India to reveal the tension between world-affirming and world-rejecting ideas, between conformism and contradiction, between Shiva and Vishnu, Krishna and Rama, Gauri and Kali. This groundbreaking book opens the door to the unknown and exotic, providing a glimpse into the rich mythic tradition that has empowered millions of human beings for centuries.Binding Type: Paperback

Can’t be beat for the price
Size: XX-Large, Color: Blue
Can’t beat it for the price, I was at super fancy NYE party. Lots of guys in very expensive jackets asking me where I got mine, this jacket got tons of compliments and looked great in photos. Quality was higher than I figured it would be for this price point. Go one size up, I am normally an XL, I ordered XXL and fit perfect.

Good jacket for the price
Size: Small, Color: Gold, Size: Small, Color: Gold
My son had prom and the theme was, "Your Night to Shine," so he and his girlfriend decided they needed to SHINE. And when this boy picks for a theme, he picks!
He is 5'11 150 lbs, very thin, but also muscular and ordered a small. The sleeves were a bit short on him, but that's to no fault of the jacket, it's just been his life as a tall, lanky kid. Great quality, steamed the creases out easily, and stayed together the entire evening.
Excellent buy!

Great for the stage. A bit iffy up close.
Size: Medium, Color: Silver-3
Jacket is decent. It’s good for the stage. It looks a bit cheap up close. Probably good for prom but for an adult wearing it to a function I can’t say I would recommend it. But it’s great for the stage! We have worn them many times and they hold up well. I’ve even washed them in the washing machine on delicate cycle without any problems. Just hang it to dry and you’re good to go. It holds it shape and doesn’t wrinkle. A good value for the money. The sequences are this color as they are shown. The sizes are true to fit.
