Exploring the intricate connections between the Ramayana and Mahabharata, this insightful work by Devdutt Pattanaik reveals their shared themes, structures, and historical contexts. Through a playful analysis enriched by his illustrations, Pattanaik examines aspects like family dynamics, exile, and warfare, suggesting that the Mahabharata serves as a response to the Ramayana. The book is organized into 56 chapters, each designed to engage the reader in a unique way, akin to the diverse offerings made to Vishnu in temple rituals.
