Description
The Immortal King: Yama is a comprehensive exploration of one of Hindu mythology’s most enigmatic and powerful deities. Sudhamahi Regunathan delves deep into ancient scriptures, including the Vedas, Upanishads, and Puranas, to trace the evolution of Yama from his earliest appearances to his prominent role in classical Indian texts.
This non-fiction work examines Yama not merely as the god of death, but as a complex figure embodying justice, dharma, and the moral order of the universe. The book analyzes his relationships with other deities, his duties in the cosmic hierarchy, and the philosophical implications of his domain over mortality and judgment.
Through meticulous research and engaging narrative, Regunathan reveals how Yama’s mythology reflects ancient Indian perspectives on life, death, ethics, and the afterlife. The work offers valuable insights into Hindu philosophy and spirituality for scholars, mythology enthusiasts, and general readers seeking deeper understanding of Indian religious traditions.
