DOWNLOAD EBOOK →The book narrates interesting and amazing legends of Lord Jagannath. The mythical, historical, metaphysical, philosophical and cultural paradigms intertwine leading to an open-ended interpretation as questions arise in the seeker's mind get the corresponding answers based on their perception and intellect, blurring the lines between illusion and reality. Here faith replaces reason heralding a miraculous transformation of the "soul.” A true makeover, revealing the essence of the self, removing imprints of past "Samskaras" as one takes a dip in the ocean of "Bhakti.” It is in this mode that one should read these legends of the Lord. It is this esoteric experience which each quest for divinity signifies. Numerous accounts have been written, numerous experiences abound, yet it is " one's experience of the divine which defines and transforms one's vision of the real and surreal....I leave the decision to the readers....to experience their own version of reality as the ultimate goal which matters is "Sharanagati" to obtain "Kaivalya" a superior form of Liberation or "moksha", here "the power of the pure consciousness settles in its own pure nature".(Kaivalya Pada:Sutra 34 of Patanjali's Yogasutras.)

This is my first step as a young author. Since childhood it's been my dream to write Hindu mythological books – an area of great interest to me. I am an animal lover.

My creative literary piece in Hindi was published in anthologies Sahityik Panktiyaan, Meri Pyari Dadi maa and Mayka 2021 which are live on Amazon, and many more write-ups are yet to be published. I was fortunate that I got the golden opportunity to meet our former President Late Dr. Pranab Mukherjee along with my Army Public School team. I enjoy writing my own quotes, stories and poems in English and Hindi and sharing on various social platforms. Besides reading Hindu mythological books, I am equally passionate about dancing, sketching, recitation, miniature art and craft work, acting, anchoring.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →In the Rig-Veda, 10.155.3, there is mention of a Daru (log of wood) floating in the ocean. Vedic prayers have indicated for taking shelter in the Daru. In spite of the fact that Acharya Sayana, the noted commentator on the Vedas, has categorically interpreted the hymn with Jagannath as the Daru floating at the sea shores, some scholars have refuted this interpretation under the argument that the hymn deals with âAlaxmi Stavaâ of Arayi.
