Mahabharata : Unveiling the Truth

Indians pride themselves on having a rich cultural heritage. They pride themselves on their culture and society... The word sex is a taboo in general public and I hardly think most kids even get 'the talk' at sixteen. People aren't comfortable with their bodies and those who are, are often tagged 'characterless'
In all this chaos, people forget that they come from a place where their ancestors were quite free about their bodies and it's natural urges. Somehow, when the kids are taught about the history of India, they are never told that Kamasutra has an Indian origin or even what kamasutra is.
The greatest epic of all times, the Mahabharata is taught with passion but they always veil the parts which stare us right in our faces but the 'decency' won't let us admit.
In this book, I'll deal with Mahabharata in a completely different light and you'll realize that it doesn't look like what it's told after all.

Bound by Law
🌟 NOW OUT ON KINDLE 🌟 https://mybook.to/BoundByLaw *** Marriage is a sacred union tying two people that love each other, together. It brings happiness and blessings. Or that's what it should be. The marriage between traditional Karishma Varghese and the cold-hearted Jai Agarwal was anything but. Horrible circumstances force these two strangers together. Now bound by law, they struggle with feelings of hate in what they think is a loveless marriage, both holding deep, dark secrets, capable of ruining everything. Those very secrets and differences, however, could be what brings these two together in ❧ "Just because we're legally bound together, doesn't mean I love you." He leaned down, spitting out the next words menacingly. "And I never will." I tried to hold back the tears as his amber eyes blazed with anger. "O-okay." "Now, stay out of my fucking personal life or I won't hesitate to ruin yours." As he left, I broke down. The truth was, I never thought that someone could hate me so much that they'd look at me like they wanted to kill me. Especially not if that someone was supposed to be my husband. ❧ Credit to @IamSumayya for making this absolutely gorgeous cover! Thank you so much for taking your time to make it! ❤️ PS. Highly unedited. Don't read if you're gonna point out every single mistake.Complete

[This story doesn't go along the lines of the Mahabharata, not even initially. I have just borrowed the main characters and a few ideas from Ved Vyasa ji...] Certain incidents in his life tell Arjuna that he is 'special' indeed. However, as a new friend, an extremely special girl, especially to him, enters his life, things seem to revolve more around her than around him, and Arjuna thinks that maybe this special friend of his is the real gem of the tale. As they grow up together, Arjuna realises that her existence must be kept a secret from almost everyone out there; and also the fact that she happens to be the single most beautiful creature to have ever walked the Earth. However, as their friendship strengthens and matures into more, he discovers that she is probably more special than he initially thought, with regards to a mystery regarding her birth. But the young prince has much more of the world to see... Much more than just knowing that everything that's called magical and divine, is most probably just another unknown to the common man. Does the mystery of her birth involve him too? Can a common friend that they find in an enigmatic youth help them out of this labyrinth that is their lives..? WARNING: Many characters, taken from the Great epic, will be shown in a totally different light in this story. Kindly do not consider any one as a deity or anything such. The more realistic and raw sides of walking-talking humans, who are no Divine beings, and do have their own share of negativities within themselves, are shown in this book.Complete

Why is it that whatever you do, no matter how much you scrub that shirt, it is never as white as it was when you first bought it? Why is it that no matter how much you study, your mind doesn't work as fast as it did when you were younger? Why is it you try your best to change and people still define you and hold you to something you no longer are or try not to be? Well enough is enough. I will no longer ask why. I will no longer be put down. I will no longer be the Jaahil, Gusse wala, Gawar. I will no longer be Shiva the husband, the son, the brother or even a Pandya. I will be Shiva . I will be me This is a journey which takes off after the current storyline but to alternate route. It's mostly Shiva but we will see raavi viewpoint too.

Radheya-Priya Vrushali Padmavati: Soul-mate of a Surya Putra (Karna Series 2)
This is the untold story of a wife of one of the most promising and remarkable archer of Mahabharata. Karna. This girl loved him unconditionally from the very bottom of her heart and was witness of his endless pain, suffering, dilemma and agony to prove himself. She was a very simple maid who became a queen by her own merit. She loved a man whose own heart was already broken by death of his lover and she warmed his heart. She saw his pain, she had supported him, she had suffered for him, but she felt ignored by the coming of two other wives of him. However she loved them both as her own baby sisters and both of them also respected her with their whole heart. She suffered tremendously by his avoidance and then falling one after another for two other beautiful wives. But she did not try to complain. She helped him. She suffered by loosing her nine sons one after another and then by her husband Karna and her two baby sisters Supriya and Uruvi. What if she was an immortal being as the Manas Kanya of Brahma Dev?!! How could she cope up with the pain and endless agony of loosing her children one after another?!! From her only son Vrishasen to Supriya Putra her dearest Vrishaketu and Uruvi Kanya her beloved Padmaja?!! She is daughter of Brahma Dev in two previous births. So She is Brahma Dev Manas Putri too like Devi Supriya and Devi Ganga. She is known as Brahma Putri Vrushali in her previous birth as the wife of estranged Gandarv Prince Biswa Bhanu (previous life of Karna). It is my purely fan fiction story based on the epic Mahabharata. I don't want to hurt anyone's religious sentiments or believes. Even I don't want to change the course of entire Mahabharata. I follow the Bengali version of Mahabharata by Kashiram Das. The pictures were taken from the public domains. Images courtesy: Pinterest, Google Chrome and YouTube.Complete

The Inseparable Princes
Ramayana. An Indian epic that has lived through the centuries and has only grown even more in the process. An epic that shows ideal characters, many of whom we worship, and other characters from whom we learn what we shouldn't be at any cost. But one thing that has been a constant for many centuries now is the examples we give, referring to the epic. One of the most popular ones being "Be a brother like Rama." Not only is the Ramayana an enchanting tale of love and devotion, but it's also an equally magical example of brotherhood and affection. Brothers who stood with each other through thick and thin. Brothers who would readily sacrifice their life for the other. Brothers who would love the other, and support him when nobody else did. This book brings to you the Ramayana, but this time, the limelight is on the inseparable brothers. *** Disclaimer: Please do not read this book if you do not like humanization of deities. However, I can assure you that ALL relationships in this book are shown the way they're meant to be - no non-canon shipping. I can also assure you, that since I myself am a devotee of Shri Rama, that you will never have me intentionally writing anything against him, his real nature - the same goes for the others - Sita, Lakshmana, Urmila, Bharata, Mandavi, Shatrughna, Shrutakeerti, Dasharatha, the mothers... All of them will always get their due respect in this book. Secondly, I've followed the Valmiki Ramayana throughout. Some incidents may be revelations, as quite a few things are contrary to popular perception and other versions. Thank you! Fantastic cover designed by @Mochis4lifeq52627 <3Complete
