Katha Charithra
~ The Indian Folklore
If something has held our attention for a long time, I would bet it has to be 'STORIES'. We have always been fascinated by stories. No wonder cinemas, books, news, theatre occupy a major portion of our lives.
Indian history and mythology is an ocean consisting of interesting stories and hence there is never a dearth for drama. Every kind of character can be found in our history. All powerful Shiva, his better half in the true sense Parvati, the master strategist Krishna, Maryada Purushotam Rama, the loyal wife Sita, the varana sena, the divine and knowlegeable Rishis, the mighty Arjuna, the lawful Dharma, the woman personified Draupadi, the cunning Shakuni, all conquering Ashoka and Raja Raja Chola and the list never ends...
Having grown up listening to these stories, our mythology has always fascinated me, just like you! This is an attempt to recollect and relish a few of those stories from the vast ocean of Indian history and mythology.
To make this more interesting, let us have this in Question and Answer format.
I would be posting a question regularly. Please post your answers in the comments section. I would post the answer and the relevant story in the the next post.
I promise to be as regular as I can!
Looking forward for your support and encouragement!
