The Myths you thought you knew and those you never heard Tell me, Janashruti, Raikva said, what is it that makes you generous? Do you give because your heart overflows, or because you wish for the world to praise you. The king, humbled, bowed his head for he had never asked himself this before. In the Hindu tradition, storytelling is a sacred act, a powerful way of transmitting knowledge, values, and spiritual insight that has guided humanity for millennia. Some stories echo through the ages, shaping civilizations. Others lie hidden, waiting to be rediscovered. Both come together in Epic Katha, a thoughtfully curated collection bridging the familiar and the forgotten. Here, you ll find cherished tales such as Krishna Lifts Govardhan Hill and Yama Enlightens Nachiketa, alongside lesser-known gems like The Princess Who Travelled Across Time, Navagunjara: The Many Within the One and Rama Meets Shiva.

These stories aren t just echoes of the past, they offer timeless insights into the world we live in. Whether you are revisiting legends or discovering lost tales for the first time, Epic Katha will stay with you long after you turn the last page.
