About this listen

 The Mahabharata and the Ramayana, two of India's greatest epics and foundational texts for modern Hinduism, both center on the supreme deity Vishnu and his two most adored incarnations, Krishna and Rama. These Epic books include a richness of philosophy and religion, as well as instructions for living a moral and upright life, all of which are woven throughout the tales that make up its heart. This book provides the reader with an understanding of the main events that shape the narratives, and further analyzes the characters, messages, and lessons that may be inferred.

Cliff notes version of the Ramayana and the most important parts of the Mahabharata.

This is both Hindu epics incredibly condensed into a just the facts version. Those who listen should be aware that the epics contain far more spiritual content and are worth looking into to get a better understanding of the meanings of the stories. For example the Mahabharata is massive and the most popular part the Bhagavad Gita is completely missing, which is fine because this is a just the facts version that is actually useful if you wish to know the story without any real spirituality but the spiritual concepts are really what the story is all about. This should be considered a companion to those books while this just lays out the facts.
