About This Podcast
Puraanic stories are like daisy chains of cause and effect. Specially curated from the Puraan genre of Hindu literature, these audio stories celebrate the glory of the Devi or the Mother Goddess. These stories have the classic elements of love, war, intrigue, jealousy, revenge between Gods, demons, kings nymphs and sages. If you've enjoyed listening to this, check out my other podcasts:
