It's amazing that this(ese) book(s) are alive and changing both historically and geographically! Almost every other book becomes codified or set in stone once it is written down, but true to the philosophy(ies) of Sanatana Dharma, there isn't one correct interpretation, and these tales can be understood in various ways for the edification of all. I've read many cosmoganies from differing cultures, and they are nearly always portrayed in a good vs evil (or order vs chaos) framework. And while the concept also appears here, it is more ambiguous, what are the good spirits named? Why do the Indians and the ancient Greeks use Devi and Daemon to describe the good, but Zoroastrians and the modern Abrahamic faiths see the Angels as the good beings? Difficult, Eh? And IMHO, the most amazing aspect of these tales is the progression past the paradigm of a black and white dichotomy, to see the complexity of the characters, their motivations, their cultural and ideological restraints and (conversely) aspirations, and how we (as readers today) can not only see these forces within us, but also empathise with and be compassionate towards them, in the process making us more "human." It is very easy to adopt an "Us vs. Them" xenophobic view of culture, class, race, gender, politics, religion and economic system, but that overly simplified system will always perpetuate only fear, hatred and more suffering. How do we all come together with intention to overcome these illusory divisions? And how does India return to its timeless roots and impart these vital lessons on the West, instead of following modi's current "might equals right" path, that the British Empire and Nazi Germay (as examples) walked in the past? It's easy for me to critique the West (as I see where the path leads) but my innermost prayer is that India will change its trajectory and instead of following the divisive and fragmentary path of socioeconomic material imperialism, lead the world in a new (Perennial and Wholistic) direction. I guess the grass always appears to be greener on the other side, unfortunately ...

Exactly what I needed right now. Best book ever!
