Tales of Shiva

Amar Chitra Katha Stories of Shiva #3

by Adurthi Subba Rao

From his snowy abode on Mount Kailasa Lord Shiva travelled far and wide, answering the prayers of his devotees. But he was often in disguise to ensure that his favors went only to the deserving and so it was that he battled with the dauntless Pandava Arjuna, cast his net into the seas as he mingled with humble fisher folk and emerged from the sand to kick aside even the mighty Yama, god of death.

Childhood nostalgia revisited

I think adults and kids must read ACKs regularly to keep getting a dose of our tales. Love the simple language and writing.

This book contained all the major achievements of the God of Gods, Lord Shiva. It also portrayed the various births of Shiva's wife, Parvati. It was good to see that Markandeya had conquered death, just the way Savitri did. While we get to know all the details about Shiva's divine plays in this book, I don't think the Gods would kick each other. Maybe Lord Shiva scolded Dharma Raja (Yama) for not listening to the boy's pleas. Overall, this book was excellent as it covered all the major details around Lord Shiva's blessings to His devotees.

Bholenath, as the good lord Shiva is also known, is surprisingly gentle and benovolent with his devotees (when you consider the fact that he is called the God of Destruction).

In this collection of short stories, he humbles the pride of the mighty Pandava Arjuna, solves a marital dispute with his beloved wife Parvati and saves his ardent devotee Markandeya from the child's prophesized death.

Good stories

Thought it contains more stories. But still nice short stories. Good for seventh standard kids. Good naration. Amarchitra katha have good collection of mythological stories.

Learning the epics through ACK - is tradition

Growing up we read about the stories from such epics like Ramayana, Mahabharata through Amar Chitra Katha. The tradition continues in the new generation...
