{"product_id":"ramayana-versus-mahabharata-devdutt-pattanaik-9789353332303","title":"Ramayana Versus Mahabharata: My Playful Comparison","description":"It is a popular belief that the Ramayana is idealistic, while the Mahabharata is realistic. Yet these two epics have identical building blocks, identical themes, and identical history.In this ground-breaking book, Devdutt Pattanaik, India's most popular mythologist, explores the similarities and dissimilarities between the two epics in a 'playful analysis' accompanied by his signature illustrations. Whether it is the family structure, forest exile, or war, the comparison between the two epics proves a startling point-the Mahabharata is in fact a reaction to the events in the Ramayana.Ideas in this book are distributed over 56 chapters. In temple ritual, Vishnu is offered 8 different meals daily, different on all seven days of the week-56 dishes in all. May each chapter serve as a mouth-watering offering to the Vishnu within you.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Devdutt Pattanaik\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9353332303\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789353332303\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Rupa Publ iCat Ions India\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/18\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 210\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.46lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.81h x 5.06w x 0.48d","brand":"Devdutt Pattanaik","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44130670805247,"sku":"9789353332303","price":12.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_a6afb7e6-6387-42c6-bf13-387ed9062846.jpg?v=1687470649","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/ramayana-versus-mahabharata-devdutt-pattanaik-9789353332303","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
