Reviews
Amar Purana presents a captivating collection of stories, each accompanied by a crossword at the end—something truly unique, as I’ve rarely seen crosswords included in mythological books. Some stories were completely new to me, while others were familiar, yet the author’s interpretations and imaginative connections make them feel fresh and distinctive. They are short, quick reads, but the thoughts linger long after you finish.
I found Amar Purana both engaging and easy to read. The stories are short yet layered with deep meaning. Each chapter stands independently, so it’s perfectly fine to read them with gaps in between , there’s no pressure to recall the previous ones.
Some stories, like those of Prajapati, Jabala–Satyakam, and Yuyutsu, felt truly unique to me. Even the familiar ones appeared fresh and insightful, offering new interpretations that resonated with various moments in my own life.
I found wisdom, comfort, and inspiration within these pages. I strongly recommend this book to anyone wishing to explore the relevance of scriptures in today’s world, to those going through challenging times, and to readers who simply enjoy inspiring and uplifting stories.
Perfect for Commuters, Book Clubs, and Educators: An Essential Read
The book serves readers who want to understand Indian scriptures but find their length overwhelming. It’s a must-have for people who want to learn practical life lessons from ancient texts, and for educators who need a clear, engaging teaching resource. Anyone who wants to give meaningful books to others should consider this option.
