Tales of Vishnu

Vishnu, the Preserver- he who descends to earth whenever evil is ascendant to uphold righteousness and punish the wicked.Sometimes a visual medium is the best way to get spiritual teaching stories across. In this way the images remain in the mind of the student until he, or she, is ready to connect them to their own life and thereby realize the deeper meaning at a later time. These well-told, well-drawn, full color stories do this with four of the traditional tales of Vishnu from the Vaishnava Puranas: Gajendra, Ambarisha, Vrikasura, and Rantideva. All four stories teach clear, positive, non-ambiguous lessons of what it means to be pleasing, or displeasing, to the greatest of the aspects of God in the Hindu pantheon. Along the way one is also introduced to Brahma, Shiva, Indra, Yama, and other of the devas.These "comics" are a high quality production and remind me of the old Classics Illustrated series.

Great stories from ACK and thanks to Amazon I could download and read to kids instantly and repeatedly. I read this book growing up.

Exactly what I expected. Easy to read and understand for a 6yr old who’s just learning about Hindu gods.

Lovely stories!

$2 for 12 pages? You have got to be kidding me...Total rip off. It should be mandatory to mention the number of pages for any books published.I would buy a ton of these books if they were sold for 0.50 each. For $2 not worth it.

These books tell the basic stories of hinduism in the form of comic books. They are easy to read and filled with action and color. When i was first studying the religion i found them a great and simple source to visualize the most basic forms of the epics of hinduism. like sunday school for hindus :P. if you're looking to learn with the mind of a child or looking to fill the mind of a child these might be good for you.

Loved it.. will order other in this series
