The Ramayana is not a story. It’s a way of life. It’s the game of life. Life is a constant reminder that nothing, however powerful in one season, remains unchanging. The endless cycles of change can truly us if we are unprepared to face its realities. However, we often see these changing times as problems larger than they really are.

That's celebrated across India and the world in myriad ways
To praise the goddesses and their glory.

5Karna on Trial deftly cast away myriads of misconception about the enigmatic ‘unsung hero’ unveiling his true position in Vyasdeva’s Mahabharata. In the Mahabharata , shalya describes Karna’s valour during the final battle between Arjuna and Karna – ‘Karna was like the desire tree and fulfilled the wishes of anyone who made any demand , just like birds seeking shelter from a tree. Karna always gave regardless of the consequences.Then why is Karna, in the introduction to the great epic , referred to as the trunk of a bitter tree ? this brings us to the question of what constitutes righteous conduct.

This story is derived from the epic poems Mangal Kavyas dedicated to folk deities in medieval Bengal. These were chanted at religious gatherings to propagate faith towards a deity. The story of the Saviour Goddess Chandi centres around a wealthy merchant and his two wives. When their husband is away, the elder wife ill-treats the younger one. Some divine girls advise the younger wife to worship the benevolent Goddess Chandi. What follows is a tale of devotion and faith, but it also involves a woman’s wisdom and ability to take thoughtful decision at testing times. Interestingly, this story portrays that god and man are bound in a network where both are dependent on each other. Till the end, the plot is so unpredictable that the reader remains engrossed in it.
