Description

This book is an extract from the three sacred texts viz. Mahābhārata, Bhāgavata Purāna, and Harivansha Purāna; after dovetailing them, in chronological order. The mythology part and illogical interpolations have been purged. It gives a glimpse of ancient Indian History, which had been camouflaged by lots of nasty interpolations. It also contains the philosophy and reflections of the era and indications of highly developed Science and Technology in ancient India. The reader will find some very interesting episodes from History, interspersed in the book.
